Deoiling Polyelectrolyte/ DOPE is a powder polyelectrolyte to be utilized as a flocculant in direct straining
and filtering procedures for settling of effluent water and inorganic suspended solids.
Polyelectrolytes are
chemicals that have qualities and characteristics of both polymers and electrolytes.
For instance,
polyelectrolytes have the properties of higher viscosity, that is adopted from polymers and higher
conductivity is adopted from electrolytes(salts).
Polyelectrolytes are mainly used in water treatment processes, we can use them in water-treatment for
sediment settling, and solid-liquid separation.
In chemical reactions, polyelectrolytes are used as thickeners, emulsifiers and conditioners for influencing
any reactants in any particular reaction.
In daily life, we can find them in cosmetics, shampoos and soaps.
