Acrylamide is prepared on an industrial scale by the hydrolysis of acrylonitrile by nitrile hydratase.
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 polymerized, the polyacrylamide is considered safe to handle under normal laboratory conditions. Acrylic Acid Content -≤0.001%
