Overview

Sodium Salt of 2-Acrylamido 2-methypropanesulfonic Acid (50% Aqueous Solution) also known as NaATBS CAS No. 5165-97-9

Product description

2-Acrylamido 2-methylpropanesulfonic acid. It is present in white colored powder or flakes. Used in polymerization where high molecular weight polymers (greater than two million) are desired.

Applications

AMPS is a very strong ionic group and ionizes completely in aqueous solutions. In applications where the precipitation of mineral salts is undesirable, the incorporation of a polymer containing even a small quantity of AMPS can significantly inhibit the precipitation of divalent cations.

Where it is used

Water Treatment Chemicals

a) Dispersants (Low molecular Weight): Co-Polymer and terpolymers of 2-Arcylamido 2-methylpropanesulfonic Acid are used in Cooling Tower and Boilers to inhibit Calcium, Magnesium and Silica scale.

b) Flocculants (High Molecular Weight): High Molecular Weight Co-polymer of 2-Arcylamido 2-methylpropanesulfonic Acid is used to percipitate solids in industrial and mining effluents.

 

Emulsions For Paints and Paper Coatings

Polymers containing 2-Arcylamido 2-methylpropanesulfonic Acid improve scrub resistance, dispersant performance and reduce grit formation.

 

Adhesives

a) Pressure Sensitive Adhesives : Ploymers containing 2-Arcylamido 2-methylpropanesulfonic Acid are used to improve tack and peel strength in Pressure Sensitive Adhesive fromulations.

b) Wood Glue : ploymers containing 2-Arcylamido 2-methylpropanesulfonic Acid improve adhesive strength, thermal and mechanical properties with superior rheology.

 

Hydrogels and Super absorbants

Polymers containing 2-Arcylamido 2-methylpropanesulfonic Acid are used in diapers, lotions and other personal care products, due to high water absorbing capacity, electrical conductivity, slipperiness and lubricity. Being super absorbants, ploymers also finds applications in the agriculture sector as water retention agents.

 

Textiler Auxillaries

Ploymers containing 2-Arcylamido 2-methylpropanesulfonic Acid are widely used as Textile Sizing Agents, Thickeners, Dispersants and Non-Woven Emulsion Binders.

 

Detergents and Cleaners

Polymers containing 2-Arcylamido 2-methylpropanesulfonic Acid improve charachteristic of hydrophilicity, dispersibility, and lubricity and also enhance the cleaning efficiency of Detergents and Cleaners

 

Oilfield and Mining Chemicals

Polymers containing 2-Arcylamido 2-methylpropanesulfonic Acid provide excellent high temperature stability, lubricity and friction reduction in drilling and cementing fluids.

 

Construction Chemicals / Super Plasticizers
