AMPS/ATBS (Acrylamido tertiary-butyl sulfonic acid) is a highly versatile molecule used in the production of polymers. The IUPAC name for the ATBS compound is 2-acrylamido-2-methyl propane sulfonic acid and the CAS number is 15214-89-8. It is a very unique polymer with a sulphonic acid group. It is highly polymerizable and can be just as easily […]
Normal Butyl Benzene (NBB) is an organic compound with the chemical formula C10H14. It is a colourless almost pale yellow liquid at room temperature. There are two isomers of Butylbenzene of which n-butylbenzene consists of a phenyl group attached to the 1 position of the butyl group. It is slightly greasy in texture and has […]
Alternative fuels are sources of clean, inexhaustible and increasingly competitive energy. They differ from the traditional fossil fuels principally in diversity, abundance and potential use anywhere on the planet. They neither produce harmful greenhouse gases nor polluting emissions. Considering climate change, turning to clean energy development is vital to limit the most devastating effects. Some […]
ATBS (or AMPS) is a very versatile and unique alkyl acrylamide monomer that also has a sulfonic acid group attached to it. Polymers made with ATBS as a co-monomer are used in many applications like textiles, flocculants, dispersants, scale control agents and oil-field additives. ATBS can be easily polymerized with acrylic esters, acrylamide, acrylic acid […]
