What SNF Publishes for AN 956 SH
The figures below are reproduced from the SNF SAS powder catalogue, Catalogue 2007 Poudres, page 36, covering the FLOPAM AN 900 SH & SHU series at high charge. The catalogue prints its own caveat: the data are given for information only and do not constitute a specification.
AN 956 SH carries high charge density at very high molecular weight. SNF publishes Brookfield readings of approximately 1850 cps at 5.0 g/l, 750 cps at 2.5 g/l, and 300 cps at 1.0 g/l (approximate values, SNF Catalogue 2007 Poudres p.36). Recommended make-up concentration is 3 g/l; maximum is 5 g/l; dissolution time is 60 minutes in deionized water at 5 g/L and 25°C.
The adjacent SH grade AN 945 SH publishes 1820/700/280 cps on the same page 36. The numbers are close but distinct. Do not borrow the viscosity reading from AN 945 SH for AN 956 SH or vice versa — the correct row is the one matching the grade number on the purchase order.
The VHM variant AN 956 VHM publishes approximately 2000/1000/350 cps and a 90-minute dissolution time. Both the viscosity values and the dissolution requirement differ from the SH variant at all three published concentrations.
Our Supply Route and Selection Logic
Our 1054V grade sits at very high MW and high charge on our internal scale. SNF describes AN 956 SH as high charge and very high MW on its own scale (Catalogue 2007 Poudres p.36). The two descriptions read alike, but each manufacturer sets its own band boundaries, so matching descriptors are not a numeric equivalence between the two products. Contact us to discuss pricing, sample arrangements and applicable product documents for the supply grade.
If the purchase specification reads AN 956 SH, this is the correct page. If it reads AN 956 VHM, the AN 956 VHM equivalent page is the correct starting point — that grade is at ultra high MW with substantially higher viscosity at all three published concentrations and a longer dissolution requirement.
Dosage Guide
SNF publishes AN 956 SH at 3 g/l recommended and 5 g/l maximum make-up concentration, with 60 minutes dissolution at 5 g/l and 25°C (Catalogue 2007 Poudres, page 36). Our preparation parameters for the supply grade are 1–3 g/L recommended and max 5 g/L, dissolution ≤60 min at working concentration. Establish the effective dose on your water by jar test before operating at volume.
Frequently Asked Questions — FLOPAM AN 956 SH Equivalent — High Charge Very High MW Anionic PAM
Do you have a supply route for FLOPAM AN 956 SH duty?
Yes. ChinaPAM supplies a high-charge, very-high-molecular-weight anionic PAM powder route for AN 956 SH duty. Contact us to discuss pricing, sample arrangements and applicable product documents.
What is the difference between FLOPAM AN 956 SH and AN 956 VHM?
Both grades carry high charge density. AN 956 SH (Catalogue 2007 p.36) is at very high molecular weight with Brookfield 1850/750/300 cps at 5/2.5/1 g/l and 60-minute dissolution. AN 956 VHM is at ultra high molecular weight with approximately 2000/1000/350 cps and a 90-minute dissolution requirement. The published values differ between the two suffix series at all three concentrations. Check the suffix on your bags — SH and VHM are not interchangeable.
How does AN 956 SH differ from AN 945 SH?
Both carry high charge density at very high MW in the SH series, but the grade numbers are different and the viscosity profiles are not identical. AN 945 SH publishes 1820/700/280 cps (Catalogue 2007 p.36); AN 956 SH publishes 1850/750/300 cps on the same page. The numbers are adjacent but the grades are distinct. Use the page that matches the exact grade number on your bags and purchase order.
What make-up concentration does SNF publish for AN 956 SH?
SNF publishes 3 g/l recommended and 5 g/l maximum for AN 956 SH (Catalogue 2007 Poudres, page 36). Our preparation parameters for the supply grade are 1–3 g/L recommended and max 5 g/L.
Does this page apply if my bags say AN 956 VHM?
No. AN 956 VHM is at ultra high molecular weight with a 90-minute dissolution time and approximately 2000/1000/350 cps Brookfield profile — meaningfully different from SH. This page covers the AN 956 SH suffix only. For AN 956 VHM, see the AN 956 VHM equivalent page.
