ACRYLAMIDE

Acrylamide (C₃H₅NO) is a versatile vinyl monomer extensively used in polymer chemistry. This crystalline compound combines amide functionality with α,β-unsaturated carbonyl reactivity.

Technical Specifications

  • Appearance: White or light yellow crystal, odorless.
  • Melting point: 84-86℃.
  • Boiling point: 125 ° C (3.3kPa).
  • Density: 1.122 g/cm³ 
  • Solubility parameters:soluble in water, ethanol, ether, acetone, insoluble in benzene, hexane.
  • Flash point: 138℃.
  • Refractive index: 1.433.
  • Functional group: contains amide groups and double bonds.
  • Reactivity: It is easy to hydrolyze under the action of acid or base catalyst to generate acrylate and acrylic acid respectively. Double bonds can undergo addition reactions and polymerization reactions.
  • Stability: stable at room temperature, but suddenly polymerizes when molten. It is easy to polymerize and release heat when it is irradiated by ultraviolet light or reaches the melting temperature.

Application

  • Advanced materials:
    • Polyacrylamide hydrogels: Contact lenses, wound dressings
    • Electrophoresis gels: DNA/RNA separation media
