Description
Sodium Polyacrylate is a superabsorbent polymer (SAP) known for its exceptional water retention capabilities. When exposed to water, it transforms into a gel-like substance, capable of absorbing up to 300–800 times its weight, depending on the ionic concentration of the liquid. This property makes it highly valuable across various industries.
Applications:
- Agriculture: Used as a soil conditioner to improve water retention, reduce irrigation frequency, and support plant growth in arid regions.
- Hygiene Products: A key component in diapers, adult incontinence products, and sanitary napkins due to its moisture-locking ability.
- Industrial Use: Effective in controlling and cleaning liquid spills, especially in laboratories and manufacturing environments.
- Cable Sealing: Helps prevent water penetration in underground and underwater fiber-optic cables.
Key Features:
- High water absorption and retention capacity
- Non-toxic, safe for agricultural use
- Reduces water loss through evaporation and leaching
- Biodegradable under specific environmental conditions
- Can be mixed into soil, hydrogel formulations, or encapsulated fertilizers
Storage & Handling:
- Store in a cool, dry environment
- Avoid contact with eyes and prolonged skin exposure in dry form
- Keep sealed to prevent moisture absorption from air
