'''PolyAPTAC''', or '''poly (acrylamido-N-propyltrimethylammonium chloride)''', is an organic [polymer](/source/polymer).<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Sutton |first1=Adam T. |last2=Read |first2=Emmanuelle |last3=Maniego |first3=Alison R. |last4=Thevarajah |first4=Joel J. |last5=Marty |first5=Jean-Daniel |last6=Destarac |first6=Mathias |last7=Gaborieau |first7=Marianne |last8=Castignolles |first8=Patrice |date=2014-12-12 |title=Purity of double hydrophilic block copolymers revealed by capillary electrophoresis in the critical conditions |url=https://hal.science/hal-04036765/file/2014%20JChromatogrA%20accepted.pdf |journal=Journal of Chromatography A |volume=1372 |pages=187–195 |doi=10.1016/j.chroma.2014.10.105 |pmid=25465016 |s2cid=24827972 |issn=0021-9673}}</ref> It is water-soluble, forms [gel](/source/gel)s when [cross link](/source/cross_link)ed, and acts as a cationic [polyelectrolyte](/source/polyelectrolyte). It can be used for [ion exchange resin](/source/ion_exchange_resin)s. It can form [hydrogel](/source/hydrogel)s.
