ʻO ka acrylonitrile he wai ʻole i ka ʻeleʻele melemele a me ka wai hoʻoheheʻe i hiki ke hoʻoheheʻe ʻia i ka wai a me nā mea hoʻoheheʻe kūlohelohe maʻamau e like me ka acetone, benzene, carbon tetrachloride, ethyl acetate, a me toluene.Hoʻokumu ʻia ka Acrylonitrile e ka propylene ammoxidation, kahi e hoʻopili ʻia ai ka propylene, ammonia, a me ka ea e ka catalyst i kahi moena wai.Hoʻohana nui ʻia ka Acrylonitrile ma ke ʻano he co-monomer i ka hana ʻana i nā fibers acrylic a me modacrylic.Hoʻohana ʻia ka hana ʻana o nā plastics, nā uhi ʻili, nā elastomers nitrile, nā pale pale, a me nā mea hoʻopili.ʻO ia hoʻi kahi mea waena kemika i ka synthesis o nā antioxidants like ʻole, nā lāʻau lapaʻau, nā mea ʻulaʻula, a me ka surface-active.
