description Acrylonitrile is a chemical molecule having the formula CH2CHCN. It is often referred to as vinyl cyanide or propenenitrile. It is a highly flammable, clear, colorless liquid with a strong, fruity smell. The versatile chemical acrylonitrile is used to create a wide range of synthetic materials and polymers, such as acrylic fibers, resins, and plastics. In addition, it plays a crucial role in the creation of synthetic rubber and other compounds, including adiponitrile, which is needed to create nylon-6,6. Acrylonitrile is also utilized in the synthesis of acrylamide, a flocculant used in water treatment and other industrial operations.
