Acrylamide Market to Witness a Healthy Growth during 2015 – 2025

Acrylamide is a chemical compound prepared by hydrolysis of acrylonitrile by nitrile hydratase. Acrylamide is mainly used in the industrial processes to synthesise polyacrylamides which are used as water soluble thickeners. The use of acrylamide for production of polyacrylamide accounts for about 90 % of its total use. It is found in tobacco smoke. Acrylamide is formed during cooking foods which are high in carbohydrates. Acrylamide finds application as a chemical intermediate in the production of N-methylol acrylamide and N-butoxyacrylamide. It is used as a superabsorbent in medical products such as disposable diapers and also in agricultural products.Small amounts of acrylamide are used in adhesives, binders for seed coatings and printing ink emulsion. Also, acrylamide is used in textile printing paste, and water retention aids. Acrylamide also finds use in the making paper, plastics and dyes. Having said that, the global acrylamide market is expected to witness a moderate growth in the forecast period.
