Common Types of Polyacrylamide (PAM)

 

 

Polyacrylamide (PAM) is a high-molecular polymer polymerized from acrylamide monomers, available in powder, emulsion or gel forms. In industrial applications, PAM is widely used as a flocculant, thickener, drag reducer, binder and lubricant, covering water treatment, mineral processing, papermaking, oilfield, sludge dewatering and other industries. Green Chemical can also provide custom-formulated polyacrylamide to meet your specific requirements.

Green Chemical · Core Advantages of Polyacrylamide

Focus on R&D and production of high-quality PAM, empower industrial upgrading with core technology, and meet the needs of various industries with high efficiency, stability and customization.

 

High Efficiency & Eco-Friendly

Our PAM requires low dosage (reduced by 30%-50%) while delivering outstanding treatment efficiency. It meets energy-saving and emission-reduction requirements, complies with EU REACH and domestic environmental standards, and is non-toxic, non-corrosive, and pollution-free.

 

High Molecular Weight & Strong Flocculation

With ultra-high molecular weight and active functional groups, our PAM quickly forms large flocs at low dosages to effectively remove suspended particles, colloids and impurities. It significantly improves clarification efficiency for industrial wastewater and municipal sewage treatment.

 

Excellent Chemical Stability

Our PAM maintains stable performance over a wide pH range (4–10) and high salinity environments. Its excellent temperature and salt resistance ensures reliable long-term performance in harsh conditions like oilfields, mining and chemical processing.

 

Versatile Formulations for All Scenarios

We offer anionic, cationic and non-ionic PAM grades to suit different applications. Whether for water treatment, sludge dewatering, papermaking, or oilfield drilling, we can provide the right product for your specific process requirements.

Applications of Polyacrylamide

 

As a high-molecular flocculant and water treatment auxiliary, polyacrylamide plays a key role in multiple industrial fields with its excellent molecular chain structure and charge characteristics. It significantly improves solid-liquid separation efficiency and reduces treatment costs in sewage treatment, oil exploitation, papermaking, mining, textile printing and dyeing, agriculture and other industries, becoming an indispensable functional chemical in many industrial processes.

Water Treatment Industry

PAM is widely used in urban sewage, industrial wastewater and drinking water treatment. It removes suspended solids, colloids and organic substances through flocculation and sedimentation. With advantages of fast floc formation, small dosage and clear treated effluent, it effectively improves water quality compliance rate. Suitable for printing and dyeing, chemical, food processing and other wastewater types, it helps enterprises achieve green and efficient water treatment and meet environmental protection emission standards.

Water Treatment Industry
Oil and Gas Industry

Oil and Gas Industry

In the oil and gas industry, PAM is mainly used in oil displacement, well drilling and well completion. In tertiary oil recovery, it improves driving fluid viscosity, expands oil layer swept volume and enhances oil recovery rate. As a drilling fluid additive, it reduces fluid loss, stabilizes well walls and prevents well collapse. With excellent temperature and salt resistance, it adapts to the harsh high-temperature and high-salinity working environment of oilfields.

Mining and Mineral Processing Industry

PAM is an essential auxiliary in the mining and mineral processing industry, widely used in flotation, sedimentation and dehydration of coal, iron ore, copper ore, gold ore and other minerals. It accelerates mineral particle settlement, improves concentrate grade and mineral recovery rate, and reduces useful mineral loss. It also reduces tailings water turbidity, realizes water resource recycling and reduces environmental pressure on mining enterprises.

Mining and Mineral Processing Industry
Papermaking and Pulp Industry

Papermaking and Pulp Industry

In the papermaking and pulp industry, PAM serves as a retention and drainage aid, dry strength agent and sizing agent. It improves fiber and filler retention rate, reduces raw material loss, and accelerates paper machine drainage to improve production efficiency. As a dry strength agent, it enhances paper tensile, folding and bursting strength, improving paper product quality. It is suitable for wood pulp, straw pulp, waste paper pulp and other papermaking raw materials.

Textile and Dyeing Industry

PAM is widely used in the textile and dyeing industry, mainly for wastewater treatment and fabric finishing. In textile dyeing wastewater treatment, it effectively flocculates and precipitates dyes, auxiliaries and suspended substances, reducing wastewater chroma and COD to meet discharge standards. As a sizing agent in fabric finishing, it improves fabric smoothness and wear resistance, and enhances dye adhesion for brighter and firmer fabric colors.

Textile and Dyeing Industry
Agriculture and Soil Improvement

Agriculture and Soil Improvement

In agriculture and soil improvement, PAM is used as a soil conditioner and water-retaining agent. It improves soil structure, enhances soil water retention and water infiltration capacity, reducing water and soil loss. It also promotes root growth and nutrient absorption of crops, improving crop yield and quality. Suitable for arid, semi-arid and salinized areas, it helps optimize agricultural production conditions and achieve sustainable agricultural development.

By using our anionic polyacrylamide at a controlled dosage of 50–100 ppm, combined with mechanical sedimentation tanks, the client achieved over 95% suspended solids removal efficiency. Turbidity dropped from 500 NTU to below 20 NTU, water recycling efficiency improved by 30%, water treatment costs were significantly reduced, and all discharge fully met local environmental standards.

 

Malaysian Paper Mill – Wastewater & White Water Recovery

 

A Malaysian paper mill struggled with poor fiber retention, low white water recycling rates, and high fresh water consumption, leading to unstable production efficiency and rising costs. By using our anionic polyacrylamide tailored for papermaking wastewater, the mill significantly improved fiber retention and filtration efficiency. White water recycling rate increased by 25%, fresh water intake reduced by 20%, process stability was enhanced, and wastewater discharge fully complied with local environmental regulations.
