PAM (Polyacrylamide)
Polyacrylamides are high molecular weight water soluble polymers formed from acrylamide or its derivatives. It is a non-ionic and bio-compatible polymer that meets a broad range of applications. Poly Acrylamide increases the viscosity of water, encouraging the flocculation of particles present in water. This polymer can absorb and retain extemely large amounts of water because the amide groups form strong hydrogen bonds with water molecules. Polyacrylamide and its sodium salt are anionic polymers which are more effective as flocculant and water absorber.
