Acrylamide Market Dynamics

Acrylamide remains as a colorless, odorless, crystalline amide that polymerizes rapidly plus it can be used as a byproduct throughout the heating of starch-rich foods to high temperatures. Acrylamide is used in the fabrication of polymers primarily in the pulp and paper industry, laboratory reagent, water treatment industry, and textile treatment industry. Waste water treatment is one of the largest markets for acrylamide. It aids in waste water treatment by flocculating solids in a liquid. It acts as a flocculating agent in order to suspend particles from wastewater and thereby forming aggregation what is known as a floc. It is extensively used in waste water treatment of municipal sewage treatment, and chemical industry. Oil industry is a growing rapidly with a considerable CAGR. Acrylamide is primarily used to improve oil recovery rates (EOR). Polyacrylamide flocculent chemical class selective blocking agent of the oil and water infiltration capacity, reduced permeability to oil along with reducing permeability of water.
