  • What is polyacrylamide (PAM)?
  • Polyacrylamide (PAM) is a long chain, linear, water soluble polymeric substance formed from acrylamide (C 3 H 5 NO) subunits, has a high molecular weight of typically from few 1000 to 20 × 10 6 g/mol, and has a very high viscosity in aqueous solutions, depending on the concentration and the degree of polymerization (Sojka et al. 2007).
  • What is polyacrylamide used for?
  • Polyacrylamide is a versatile polymer that is used in various industries such as oil, water treatment, and biotechnology. It can be in the form of gels for electrophoresis, thickeners, flocculants, and superabsorbent materials. You might find these chapters and articles relevant to this topic.
  • Why is poly(acrylamide) a good soluble polymer?
  • The thermal stability of poly (acrylamide) solutions are generally higher than most other water-soluble polymers; however, the high molecular weight species, like their POE equivalents, have very high extensional viscosities, favor-able for good drag reduction behavior, but this also reflects on their rapid degradation under mechanical deformation.
  • Does polyacrylamide undergo photodegradation?
  • Polyacrylamide undergoes thermal degradation at 175 to 300°C (Smith et al., 1996) and can also undergo photodegradation. Acrylamide is readily biodegraded under aerobic conditions by microorganisms in soil and water by deamination to acrylic acid and ammonia, which are utilized as carbon and nitrogen sources.
