Product Details
Acrylamide is a chemical compound with the formula C₃H₅NO, commonly used in various industrial and scientific applications. When referring to "Acrylamide Powder 98%," it typically means that the powder is 98% pure acrylamide, with the remaining 2% consisting of impurities or moisture.
Here are some key details about acrylamide powder:
Properties:
- Appearance: White, crystalline powder.
- Solubility: Highly soluble in water and polar organic solvents.
- Melting Point: Approximately 84°C (183°F).
- Boiling Point: Decomposes before boiling.
Uses:
- Industrial Applications: Acrylamide is primarily used to produce polyacrylamide, a polymer employed in water treatment, paper manufacturing, and mining. Polyacrylamide is also used in various other industries for its properties as a flocculant and thickener.
- Laboratory Use: In the laboratory, acrylamide is used in the preparation of polyacrylamide gels for electrophoresis, particularly in the separation of proteins and nucleic acids.
- Acrylamide-Based Products: It's involved in the production of certain adhesives, coatings, and superabsorbent polymers.
Safety Considerations:
Acrylamide is recognized as a potential health hazard:
- Toxicity: Acrylamide is toxic and can be harmful if ingested, inhaled, or absorbed through the skin. It is classified as a probable human carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC).
- Precautions: Proper handling procedures are necessary, including the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves and masks. Adequate ventilation and safe storage practices are also important to minimize exposure.
- First Aid: In case of accidental exposure, seek immediate medical attention. For spills, follow appropriate cleanup procedures and use suitable containment methods.
Handling and Storage:
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from incompatible materials and sources of ignition. Ensure the container is tightly closed and labeled properly.
- Disposal: Follow local regulations for the disposal of chemical waste. Acrylamide should be disposed of as hazardous waste due to its potential health risks.
