  • What is anionic polyacrylamide (Apam)?
  • 1. Introduction Anionic polyacrylamide (APAM) is a kind of organic high-molecular polymer with high hydrophilicity and viscosity, which is easily dissolved in water [ , , ].
  • What is a polyacrylamide (PAM)?
  • 1. Introduction Polyacrylamides (PAM) are high molecular weight polymers deriving from the polymerization of acrylamide monomers. Their chemical composition and ionic character depend on the functional groups added to the acrylamide chemical moiety ( Abidin et al., 2012; Acharya et al., 2010 ).
  • Is Apam a uniform polymer?
  • The polyacrylamide is a uniform and unitary polymer. PAM has a neat smooth surface as its SEM images unfold at 2500x and 4000x. However, the surface of APAM was much rougher. Hills and valleys could be observed in its SEM images due to the interaction of chemical groups between AM and SAS.
  • What is Apam chemistry?
  • The APAM samples were supplied in powder form by SNF (France). They had a low charge density, low to medium molecular size, and identical chemistry to APAM intended for industrial use. Three different molecular weights of the same polymer type were used in this study featuring average molecular weights of 200, 2800 and 8000 kDa, respectively.
