Polyacrylamide (PAM), a synthetic polymer with the chemical formula (C₃H₅NO)n and CAS registry number 9003-05-8, stands as a cornerstone in numerous industrial applications. Available from NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. in both powder and liquid emulsion forms, PAM offers exceptional performance as a flocculant, thickener, retention aid, and rheology modifier, making it indispensable across sectors from environmental management to resource extraction.

One of the most significant applications of Polyacrylamide is in water treatment. Its ability to effectively flocculate suspended solids allows for rapid separation of solid and liquid phases, significantly improving water clarity and enabling efficient sedimentation. In wastewater treatment, PAM is often used in conjunction with inorganic coagulants like polyaluminum chloride (PAC). This synergistic approach enhances the removal of various contaminants, including chromacity, turbidity, oils, metal ions, fluoride, and phosphate, often leading to reduced overall chemical dosage and improved cost-efficiency. Different types of PAM – anionic, cationic, and nonionic – are selected based on the charge characteristics of the suspended particles in the water, ensuring optimal performance for diverse wastewater compositions.

In the mineral processing industry, Polyacrylamide plays a crucial role, particularly in flotation and dewatering processes. During flotation, PAM can be added to ore pulp to enhance the adhesion between mineral particles and air bubbles, thereby improving the recovery rate of valuable minerals. For the dewatering of mineral concentrates or tailings, PAM acts as a flocculant, accelerating the separation of solids from water, which is vital for reducing transportation costs and improving downstream processing efficiency. Its use can also contribute to energy savings by potentially shortening stirring and heating times in certain processes.

The paper industry relies heavily on Polyacrylamide to meet the demands of high-speed paper machines and quality production. PAM functions effectively as a retention and drainage aid, improving the retention rate of fibers and fillers within the paper sheet and enhancing the dewatering of the paper stock on the wire. This leads to improved paper formation, reduced raw material loss, and increased machine speed. Furthermore, specific grades of PAM can serve as sizing agents, forming a dense film with fibers to improve the paper's water resistance and overall durability. Low molecular weight cationic PAM can also act as a dispersant, helping to achieve a more uniform distribution of fibers and fillers, resulting in a smoother and more consistent paper product.

Within the oil and gas sector, Polyacrylamide is a vital additive in various operations. In well drilling, PAM is incorporated into drilling fluids to adjust their rheological properties, which is essential for carrying rock cuttings to the surface, lubricating the drill bit, and stabilizing the borehole wall to prevent collapse and fluid loss. For enhanced oil recovery (EOR) through polymer flooding, high molecular weight PAM is injected into reservoirs to increase the viscosity of the injected water. This improves the mobility ratio between oil and water, allowing the water to more effectively push the oil towards the production wells, thereby increasing the overall oil yield. In hydraulic fracturing, PAM is used as a friction reducer and a proppant carrier in fracturing fluids due to its high viscosity, low drag, and ability to suspend proppant effectively.
