2-Acrylamido 2-methylpropanesulfonic Acid ATBS

Product code RXSOL-81-8186-025

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

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.

Application
Application

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.
