FLOPAM FO 4800 Family Equivalent: Cationic PAM Supply Routes
ChinaPAM supplies cationic PAM powder for FLOPAM FO 4800 family inquiries. We start SH and SSH screening with C8055 at Very High charge and Very High molecular weight on our own scale. C8005 sits one route lower than C8055 at High charge and High molecular weight; add it for bare or MPM duty only when the label, process information or trial response supports that comparison. Send the full suffix, a bag-label photo or your purchasing requirement to discuss current pricing and sample options.

Four FO 4800 identities, four preparation references
The SNF 2007 catalogue lists four distinct FO 4800 powder entries. All four are described at Very High charge, while molecular weight rises from Medium for MPM to Standard for the bare grade, High for SH and Very High for SSH. The suffix therefore changes the selection question even when the charge descriptor stays fixed.
The historical reference also changes preparation: MPM is shown at 5 g/L recommended and 45-minute dissolution; the bare and SH entries at 4 g/L and 60 minutes; SSH at 3 g/L and 90 minutes. Maximum concentration is 10 g/L for MPM, bare and SH, and 5 g/L for SSH. The dissolution figures are for deionized water at 5 g/L and 25 degrees C.
| Exact entry | Charge | Molecular weight | Brookfield at 5 / 2.5 / 1 g/L | Recommended / maximum | Dissolution |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| FO 4800 MPM | Very High | Medium | 480 / 300 / 120 cps | 5 / 10 g/L | 45 min |
| FO 4800 | Very High | Standard | 650 / 320 / 130 cps | 4 / 10 g/L | 60 min |
| FO 4800 SH | Very High | High | 670 / 330 / 160 cps | 4 / 10 g/L | 60 min |
| FO 4800 SSH | Very High | Very High | 660 / 340 / 150 cps | 3 / 5 g/L | 90 min |
How we route the supply inquiry
C8055 is our primary cationic powder route at Very High charge and Very High molecular weight on the ChinaPAM scale. It is the first screen for SH and SSH duty, with the full suffix retained in the trial record. For bare or MPM duty, C8005 is the conditional High-charge, High-molecular-weight route where a lower charge and chain-length position is justified; C8055 remains the comparison when the feed's charge demand governs. These bands come from our own catalogue and do not establish a numerical match to the SNF bands.
Prepare our powder at 1-3 g/L, maximum 5 g/L, with dissolution within 60 minutes at working concentration. Use those instructions for our material instead of copying the historical SNF settings. Make-up concentration is separate from the treatment dose delivered to the feed.
Two costly changeover failures to prevent
Suffix control: treating MPM and SSH as the same grade ignores a Medium-versus-Very-High molecular-weight step and a 45-versus-90-minute historical dissolution reference. Confirm the full bag label, prepare each material under its own instructions and verify the pump's measured polymer delivery before comparing process results.
Dose window: a very-high-charge route can pass the optimum and restabilize solids. Step the dose upward in small increments and stop where filtrate or centrate clarity, cake release and polymer consumption no longer improve. A larger floc by sight is not enough if the centrate turns cloudy or the cake becomes wetter.
Get a price or arrange a sample
Send FO 4800 MPM, FO 4800, FO 4800 SH or FO 4800 SSH as written on the bag, or simply send a label photo and your required quantity. We can discuss the appropriate C8055 or C8005 route, current pricing, available documents and sample options first; feed and equipment details can follow for the trial plan.
Dosage Guide
Prepare our powder at 1-3 g/L, maximum 5 g/L, with dissolution within 60 minutes at the working concentration. Start from the incumbent active-polymer dose, bracket lower and higher in small steps, and compare measured delivery, filtrate or centrate clarity, cake handling and polymer consumption on the same feed.
Frequently Asked Questions — FLOPAM FO 4800 Family Equivalent: Cationic PAM Supply Routes
What ChinaPAM route can I buy for FLOPAM FO 4800 family duty?
We start SH and SSH screening with C8055, our Very-High-charge, Very-High-molecular-weight cationic powder. C8005 is the conditional High-charge, High-molecular-weight route for bare or MPM duty, or when the actual feed shows that the C8055 position is too high. Send the full suffix or a bag-label photo and we can discuss current pricing and sample options.
Are FO 4800, FO 4800 MPM, SH and SSH the same grade?
No. In the SNF 2007 catalogue they share a Very High charge descriptor but occupy Medium, Standard, High and Very High molecular-weight positions respectively. Their historical recommended concentration and dissolution references also differ, so the suffix must remain part of the inquiry and trial record.
What do I need to send for a quotation?
Start with the exact grade, a bag-label photo or your purchasing requirement and quantity. We can discuss current pricing, available documents and sample options immediately; make-up settings, feed details and performance endpoints can follow for the trial plan.
