Acrylamide is a monomer used in a variety of synthetic processes to form polymers and copolymers. It polymerizes in the presence of free radicals in aqueous solutions. It is usually used to prepare polyacrylamide gels for electrophoresis separation of biomolecules.
Acrylamide is an extremely hazardous substance in either the powder form or liquid form. Once polymerised, the polyacrylamide is considered safe to handle under normal laboratory conditions. Acrylic acid content - <0,01%.
Soluble in water (to at least 40% w/v, but has been reported to be soluble in water up to 215 g/100 mL at 30°C), methanol (155 g/100 mL), ethanol (86 g/100 mL), alcohol, acetone (63.1 g/100 mL); only minimally soluble in benzene or heptane.
Caution: Research Use Only (RUO).
