Polyacrylamide (PAM) Uses and Specifications for Industrial Applications
Polyacrylamide (PAM) is a versatile water-soluble polymer widely used in industrial and municipal water treatment, mining, paper-making, oil recovery, and other solid-liquid separation processes. Known for its strong flocculation, thickening, and water-retention abilities, PAM is available in powder and emulsion forms with cationic, anionic, and nonionic properties to meet different application needs.
