Polyacrylamide Handbook

Dewatered polyacrylamide emulsions differs from standard by the fact that they contain less than 6% water, with the result that the hydrogel has become almost the dry polymer itself. The consistency of the polymer is similar to plastic material. Most dewatered polyacrylamide emulsions from SNF have names starting by DW.
