Description
Water Absorbent Polymer, commonly referred to as Super Absorbent Polymer (SAP), is a cross-linked polyacrylate-based material designed to absorb, retain, and slowly release water. When mixed into soil or growth media, SAP crystals swell upon irrigation and release stored moisture gradually, significantly improving water efficiency and plant health.
Key Benefits:
- High Water Retention: Absorbs up to 300–500 times its own weight in water.
- Reduces Irrigation Needs: Decreases watering frequency by 50–70%.
- Improves Root Zone Moisture: Maintains consistent hydration at the root level.
- Enhances Drought Tolerance: Helps plants survive dry periods and water stress.
- Reusable in Soil: Effective for several growing seasons depending on soil conditions and microbial activity.
Applications:
- Agriculture: Mixed with soil at root level for crops like cotton, sugarcane, vegetables, and fruit trees.
- Horticulture & Landscaping: Ideal for pots, lawns, ornamental plants, hanging baskets, and vertical gardens.
- Forestry & Reforestation: Enhances survival rate of saplings and young trees in arid areas.
- Hydro-seeding & Turfing: Improves seed germination and soil moisture retention.
Usage Guidelines:
-
- Soil Mixing (General):
- Field Crops: 2–4 kg per acre
- Potted Plants: 1–3 grams per liter of soil
- Tree Plantation: 25–50 grams per planting hole
- Soil Mixing (General):
- Application Method: Mix uniformly into the soil at the root zone before planting or apply near root base of existing plants.
