N-Methylolacrylamide is a bifunctional monomer with reactive vinyl and hydroxymethyl groups.
Thermoplastic polymers can be formed by copolymerization of N-methylolacrylamide with a variety of vinyl monomers by emulsion, solution and suspension techniques.
The resulting products, which have pendant hydroxymethyl groups, can undergo cross-linking under moderate conditions, permitting conversion of thermoplastic backbone polymers to thermoset materials at the point of use in the absence of an external cross-linking agent.
Conversely, the hydroxymethyl group can be reacted with a substrate like cellulose and subsequently cross-linked by free-radical polymerization.
The uses of N-methylolacrylamide range from adhesives and binders in papermaking and textiles to a variety of surface coatings and resins for varnishes, films and sizing agents.
N-Methylolacrylamide %48 can be used in wet-strength and dry-strength agents for paper, in textile finishing agents for crease resistance, in antistatic agents, in dispersing agents, in cross-linking agents and in emulsion polymers.

The mercapturate N-acetyl-S-(3-hydroxymethylamino-3-oxopropyl) cysteine, arising from direct conjugation of NMA with glutathione and subsequent metabolism, is the major urinary metabolite.
In addition to conjugation with GSH, other potential metabolic pathways, e.g by the P450 system, are unknown.

N-methylol acrylamide  individually or in combination is chemically modified jute is found to improve or alter the important textile related properties like moisture regain, tensile properties, fabric stiffness, crease recovery angle, shrinkage parameters, and thermal behavior.
This leads to reduction in warp-way tenacity.
The polymerization and condensation reaction of N-methylolacrylamide within cotton fabrics in which K2S2O8, (NH4) 2S 2O8, or H2O2 can be used as initiator and NH4 Cl or (NH4 )2HPO4 used as the acid condensation catalyst.
Crease recovery and abrasion resistance (flat) of the treated fabric increased with higher value of resin content; tear strength.
The effect of the addition of acid catalysts such as NH4Cl on the extent of the crease resistance is considerable, although some marked improvement was obtained in neutral catalysts such as K2S2O8 alone.

Therefore, N-Methylolacrylamide %48 can be questioned if proposing a classification entry for NMA is really justified in particular taking into account the classification of AA.
However, N-Methylolacrylamide %48 remains that some registered compositions do not contain sufficient impurities to impact the classification of NMA (see confidential annex).
In addition, N-Methylolacrylamide %48 is considered that NMA has intrinsic properties for carcinogenicity, genotoxicity and neurotoxicity to justify its own classification and Annex VI entry.

Treatment usefulness
The addition of co-monomers such as acrylamide and hexamethylene diamine HCl-salt as well as softeners to the treating bath may be effective in improving the strength losses induced by this treatment.
Aftertreatment of the N-Methylolacrylamide %48-treated fabric with hexamethylenediamine or thereafter with formalin may be also effective, since somewhat continuous distribution of the different kinds of network-structures within the fiber could be obtained by this procedure.

NMA was synthesized via a random redox copolymerization, and the poly(NIPAAm-co-NMA) copolymer showed thermo-responsive properties.
Here, NMA performed a thermal crosslinking function in the copolymer. Carbon black was acid-treated for good dispersion in an aqueous solution.
Poly(NIPAAm-co-NMA)/CB composites were obtained by blending various amounts of acid-treated CB into the poly(NIPAAm-co-NMA) aqueous solution, and the films were then post-cured for thermal crosslinking.
The properties of the conductive poly(NIPAAm-co-NMA)/CB films such as thermal crosslinking performance, surface resistance, and morphology of the crosslinked composites were investigated.
This study demonstrated that the poly(NIPAAm-co-NMA)/CB composites exhibited both temperature-dependent electric resistance and reproducible thermally responsive characteristics.
The composites can potentially be applied as new electrical temperature sensor materials.

N-Methylolacrylamide %48 an added stabilizer or inhibitor can influence the toxicological properties of this substance, consult an expert.
N-Methylolacrylamide %48 is toxic to aquatic organisms.
N-Methylolacrylamide %48 is strongly advised not to let the chemical enter into the environment.

Routes of exposure:
N-methylolacrylamide can be absorbed into the body by inhalation, through the skin and by ingestion.

Effects of short-term exposure
N-methylolacrylamide is mildly irritating to the eyes and skin.
N-methylolacrylamide may cause effects on the nervous system.

The composition of the substance tested in the toxicological studies was not fully clarified.
Furthermore, with a N-Methylolacrylamide %48 content above 97%, the toxicological batches are not the most appropriate to cover the substance as placed on the market (40 to 85% as aqueous solution).
A carcinogenicity NTP assay (1989)1 reported that in the batch number 1-45-000 (batch used in most studies) NMA is present at a purity up to 98%, the impurities are unknown but evidence indicates that 1% may have been a polymer of NMA, which would not have been detected by the analytical methods used.
Toxicity appears largely restricted to the monomer and acrylamide polymers are thought to pose little hazard to public health or the environment.
So the polymers of N-Methylolacrylamide %48 can be considered of not toxicologically concern

There are some persistent doubts on the fact that the effects (mutagenicity, carcinogenicity and neurotoxicity) observed with NMA could be due to the presence of classified impurities content.
Indeed, for most of the compositions of N-Methylolacrylamide %48 registered under REACH regulation, the levels of formaldehyde and/or acrylamide should lead to a classification of the substance by calculation.

Some data on acrylamide (AA) have been reported here in order to assess the potential influence of AA on the toxicity of NMA.
Indeed, in addition to be a potential impurity of N-Methylolacrylamide %48, it has been checked if AA could be a metabolite of NMA.
This is of particular importance to conclude if the mutagenic, carcinogenic and neurotoxic effects reported in studies performed with NMA are related to the substance itself or to the presence of AA as an impurity or as a metabolite

Applications
NMA is an important chemical raw material, which is used to various high polymers widely, such as coating, adhesive, papermaking aid, etc.; it has huge applicability potential in chemical industry and science study.

In textile industry, the binders used are mostly water based acrylic dispersions.
These binders provide strength, elastic recovery, soft hand, flexibility, color retention and also resistance to washing and aging to the textile and nonwoven.
Nevertheless, binders having no reactive functional monomers are not very successful in imparting these properties.
Self crosslinking monomers are used to improve the properties of textile and non woven end products.
N-Methylolacrylamide %48 (NMA) is one of these monomers having functional groups for self-crosslinking.
However, N-Methylolacrylamide %48 used in textile binders emit formaldehyde during crosslinking at high temperatures.
This formaldehyde either remains in the end product or is liberated into the air.
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services published the 12th Report on Carcinogens and formaldehyde is listed in the category of known to be a human carcinogen.
Researchers on textile sector are focud on the subject of formaldehyde emission due to the harmfull effects on both people and environment.
In this study, a novel monomer that emmits no formaldehyde and have ability to self-crosslink was investigated for replacement of NMA and the performance results are compared with that of NMA.
