High-Quality Non-Anionic Polyacrylamide
Non-Anionic Polyacrylamide, with chemical formula (C₃H₅NO)ₙ and CAS number 9003-05-8, containing high molecular weight acrylamide polymer in neutral form, is a specialized high-performance synthetic polymer flocculant appearing as white to off-white granular powder with excellent solubility and outstanding flocculation properties. Non-anionic polyacrylamide is a water-soluble synthetic polymer that carries no ionic charge, making it particularly effective in applications where electrical neutrality is required. The compound works through bridging flocculation mechanism, where long polymer chains physically entrap and bind particles together to form larger, more easily separated flocs. Non-Anionic Polyacrylamide represents one of the most versatile and effective synthetic polymer flocculants, providing exceptional suspended solids removal, superior dewatering performance, excellent turbidity reduction, and outstanding solid-liquid separation efficiency, making it essential for municipal water treatment plants, industrial wastewater processing, sludge dewatering facilities, mining operations, and specialized applications requiring high-performance flocculation characteristics and reliable particle separation behavior.
