Product overview
Polyacrylamide is a family of water-soluble polymers supplied in anionic, cationic and nonionic grades. It is selected by molecular weight and charge density for water treatment, mining, oilfield and textile-effluent applications.
Function & Usage
- Flocculate, Clarify & Remove Color
Supports flocculation, clarification or color removal in suitable water and effluent-treatment systems. Typical uses: Water and wastewater flocculation, Mineral processing, Oilfield treatment.
- Build Drilling-Fluid Rheology
Supports viscosity, suspension or carrying performance in compatible drilling-fluid and oilfield systems. Typical uses: Water and wastewater flocculation, Mineral processing, Oilfield treatment.
