Description

2-Propenamide, n-(Hydroxymethyl)-, Homopolymer n-(Hydroxymethyl)-2-Propenamide, Homopolymer n-(Hydroxymethyl)-2-Propenamid Homopolymer CAS NO 26374-25-4 is a high-performance, water-soluble polymer derived from N-methylolacrylamide. This compound is valued for its ability to introduce reactive crosslinking sites and enhance the durability and performance of various polymeric materials. It is essential for industries requiring advanced resin modification, durable coatings, and specialized adhesives.

Application

• Paper & Textile Sizing: Used as a crosslinking agent to improve wet strength, stiffness, and dimensional stability of paper and textiles.
• Adhesive & Sealant Formulation: Enhances the cohesive strength, water resistance, and thermal stability of acrylic and polyvinyl acetate (PVAc) based adhesives.
• Coatings & Paints: Serves as a reactive monomer in thermosetting coatings to improve film hardness, chemical resistance, and adhesion to substrates.
• Flocculants & Water Treatment: Incorporated into copolymer flocculants for efficient solid-liquid separation in industrial wastewater treatment.
• Photoresist & Electronics: Utilized in photopolymerizable compositions for printed circuit boards and microelectronics due to its reactive hydroxymethyl groups.
• Soil Stabilization: Acts as a soil conditioner polymer to reduce erosion and improve soil aggregate stability.

Quality Control

Our 2-Propenamide, n-(Hydroxymethyl)-, Homopolymer is manufactured under a stringent quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure consistent purity, molecular weight distribution, and reactive group content. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing assay, residual monomer levels, and other critical parameters are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); containers must be kept tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect product performance.
