Environmental Impacts • Acrylamide is present in low levels in drinking water. Increased exposure may cause damage to nervous system. • Amides may also be used in herbicides, such as polyacrylamide, which may be potentially harmful to crops. • Some amides, such as Nylon, are non-biodegradable • Kevlar bulletproof vests help to save lives around the world yet this product is non-biodegradable and simply ends up in a land fill
Test Questions • How are amides formed? • What are the products of acid hydrolysis? • What are the products of base hydrolysis? • What is one of the industrial uses of amides? • What is one of the environmental effects of amides? • Draw the products of the following reactions:
