Acrylamide (CAS#1979-6-1)

Acrylamide is an important organic synthetic monomer that combines strong chemical reactivity with distinct physical properties. At room temperature, it appears as a white crystalline powder. Pure-grade products are odorless, while industrial-grade materials may exhibit a slightly pale yellow color or a mild pungent odor due to trace impurities. The crystals are hygroscopic and tend to absorb moisture, gradually softening or even dissolving after moisture uptake.
