Overview | N-methylol acrylamide because of its molecular structure contains two reactive groups, a polymerizable double bond and a condensable methylol Group, it therefore has the characteristics of a crosslinking agent monomer. The earliest synthetic method was to react acrylamide with formaldehyde to obtain crystalline N-methylolacrylamide. For example, foreign scholars use paraformaldehyde and acrylamide crystals, trichloroethylene as solvent, and metal sodium colloid as catalyst to produce N-hydroxymethyl acrylamide. After the reaction is finished, the system naturally divides into two phases. When the temperature is lowered to room temperature, N-methylolacrylamide precipitates in a large amount, and the N-methylolacrylamide product is obtained, but the obtained product needs to be recrystallized with acetone or ethyl acetate. |
Application | N-methylol acrylamide has two active groups in its molecular structure, which are polymerizable double bonds and condensable methylol groups, therefore, it has the characteristics of crosslinking agent monomer and is widely used in the fields of fiber modification, resin processing, coatings, plastics, adhesives, oil field additives and soil amendments. In addition, it can also be polymerized with a variety of monomers in an aqueous system to prepare a polymer with excellent performance, which is a fine chemical widely used at present. Foreign research and application of this technology is relatively mature, the domestic application is still very limited, many applications still need further research and development, N-methylol acrylamide can also play a greater potential and value. |
preparation | (1), acrylamide is added to the reaction kettle filled with solvent acetone, raise the temperature to 42~45 ℃;(2), add the catalyst sodium methoxide, adjust the pH value of the reaction solution to 8.88;(3), add formaldehyde, adjust the pH value of the reaction solution to 8.5, the reaction was carried out at a constant temperature for 1 hour;(4) phthalic acid was added to adjust the pH of the reaction solution to 7.2;(5) the reaction solution was cooled, crystallized and filtered to obtain the finished N-methylolacrylamide. |
Use | the product molecule has double bond conjugated with carbonyl and reactive hydroxymethyl, it is a widely used cross-linking monomer for fiber modification, resin processing, adhesives and paper, leather, metal surface treatment agents, but also for soil amendments. The oral LD50 of male mice was 420mg/kg. it can be used as crosslinking agent, widely used in fiber modification resin, processing dye, plastic adhesive, soil stabilizer, etc. Organic synthetic monomer can be used to prepare a variety of copolymers. |
production method | under weak alkaline conditions, acrylamide is prepared by reacting with 37% formaldehyde in water. |
