N-Isopropylacrylamide, 97%, Thermo Scientific Chemicals

Description

N-Isopropylacrylamide is used to produce poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (pNIPA, pNIPAAm, pNIPAA or pNIPAm) thermo sensitive polymer- or copolymer-based hydrogels. Polymers that contain NIPAM shrink dramatically above 33°C. Monomer used in the preparation of thermally sensitive, water-swellable hydrogels.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
