    An overview of AMPS Monomer:

    Acrylamide tertiary-butyl sulfonic acid (CAS 15214-89-8) is a very unique versatile vinyl compound that has a sulphonic group. Its uses are widely found in the production of polymers, textiles, flocculants, dispersants, scale control agents and well-additives.  

    AMPS monomer is a reactive, hydrophilic, sulphonic acid acrylic monomer used to alter the chemical properties of a large variety of anionic polymers. Acrylamide tertiary-butyl sulfonic acid is prepared by the reaction of acrylonitrile and isobutylene in the presence of sulfuric acid and water.

     

    The ATBS monomer allows the manufacturing of high-quality polymers for application in a wide range of consumer and industrial products. The AMPS monomer, manufactured by Vinati Organics Ltd, a dispersing agent manufacturer, is organic, high in productivity and performance, and available in both granules and liquid form.  For ease of handling, AMPS is also offers in a 50% sodium salt solution called NaAMPS.
