Product Description
Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) is a high-performance synthetic polymer widely used as a precursor material for carbon fibers and advanced functional materials. This research-grade PAN, with an average molecular weight of approximately 150,000 g/mol, offers excellent consistency, purity, and processability for laboratory-scale and pilot-scale applications.
Due to its linear structure and strong nitrile (-C≡N) functional groups, PAN exhibits excellent thermal stability, chemical resistance, and mechanical strength. It is particularly suitable for electrospinning processes, membrane fabrication, composite development, and nanomaterial synthesis.
This grade is carefully processed to ensure minimal impurities, making it ideal for sensitive applications such as graphene composites, filtration membranes, and biomedical scaffolds. Its solubility in polar aprotic solvents (e.g., DMF, DMSO) allows for easy formulation and processing.
Researchers and industrial developers rely on PAN for its reproducibility in experiments and scalability toward commercial carbon fiber production.
