What are the uses of polyelectrolyte?

Poly electrolytes are used to purify water,It is also used to sediment the viruses present in water.Polyelectolytes is obtained from a plant called Poly and then using scientific methods it is turned into polyelectolytes.It is used for many things for the environment.


What are the health implications associated with using polyelectrolyte as flocculants in potable water treatment?

According to WHO, there must be chance of Cancer after certain unreactive poly from the treatment plant. The Safety impurity limits to be checked and dosage rate to be controlled. otherwise avoid it.


Anybody who knows the usage of MA-AA in water treatment field?

Properties:MA/AA is a low molecular weight polyelectrolyte, a copolymer of maleic anhydride and acrylic acid. It has good dispersant performance against carbonate and scale inhibition for phosphate. it has good thermal stability, can be used under high temperature (300℃). MA/AA has good compatibility when used together with other agents. MA/AA is widely used in low-pressure boiler, centralized heating, centralized air-conditioner and circulating cool system. It can also be used as chelating dispersants in woven and dyeing fields.Specification:items Water treatment agent Accessory detergent Appearance Clear brown liquid amber transparent liquid Solid content % 48 min 50 min Free monomer (MA) % 9.0 max 5.0 max Density (20℃)g/cm3 1.18 min 1.18min pH(1% solution) 2.0~3.0 2.0±1.0 Usage:MA/AA is used in circulating cool water system, medium or lower pressure boiler and distillation system in which high temperature is usually encountered. MA/AA can be used alone or together with other organic phosphates. When used together, the dosage of 2-10mg/L is preferred. The dosage for use as woven & dyeing and accessory detergent should be determined by experiments.


What are myomeres?

Jump to: navigation, searchElectroactive Polymers or EAPs are polymers whose shape is modified when a voltage is applied to them. They can be used as actuators or sensors. As actuators, they are characterized by the fact that they can undergo a large amount of deformation while sustaining large forces. Due to the similarities with biological tissues in terms of achievable stress and force, they are often called artificial muscles, and have the potential for application in the field of robotics, where large linear movement is often needed. EAP can have several configurations, but are generally divided in two principal classes: * Dielectric EAPs, in which actuation is caused by electrostatic forces between two electrodes which squeeze the polymer. This kind of EAP is characterized by a large actuation voltage (several thousand volts), but very low electrical power consumption. Dielectric EAPs require no power to keep the actuator at a given position. Examples are electrostrictive polymers and dielectric elastomers. * Ionic EAPs, in which actuation is caused by the displacement of ions inside the polymer. Only a few volts are needed for actuation, but the ionic flow implies a higher electrical power needed for actuation, and energy are needed to keep the actuator at a given position. Examples of ionic EAPS are conductive polymers, ionic polymer-metal composites (IPMCs), and responsive gels. Yet another example is a Bucky gel actuator, which is a polymer-supported layer of polyelectrolyte material consisting of an ionic liquid sandwiched between two electrode layers consisting of a gel of ionic liquid containing single-wall carbon nanotubes. The name refers to bucky balls. [1]End WikiIn Battletech Myomers are the actuators that Allow the 'Mechs' to walk...... aka artificial muscles
