Granulated AMPS® Monomer
Lubrizol offers a granular form of AMPS® monomer to replace the powder version of the product. The major benefits of the granular form include:
- Reduction of dust emissions in the air, resulting in better worker safety and reduced plant maintenance.
- Little or no agglomeration, eliminating clumping and making it easy for customers to transfer.
Since granulation is a post-reaction step, the AMPS monomer chemistry will be unchanged, and customers will not need to re-qualify. The granular change affects only the acid form of AMPS monomer; we continue to offer the salt form in aqueous solutions.
