Turbidity adds an objectionable appearance to waters. The effectiveness of PA6/CMC composite in coagulation and flocculation to improve the quality of waters was investigated. Results of the "jar test" conducted indicated that by adding 0.01 gm of PA6/CMC at pH 5 and time of 30 min., turbidity of solution was reduced to about 95% at 50NTU and 98% at 100NTU respectively. The results of this study suggest that PA6/CMC copolymer is a potential coagulant for reducing turbidity during water treatment.
