Water Absorbent Polymer

Sodium polyacrylate-based water absorbent polymer is an integral part of the diaper production method. This super absorbent polymer ( SAP) is capable of absorbing a higher amount of fluid than its weight. Its fluid absorption performance and swelling property depend on the type of cross-linkers used to form its gel-based content. This range of water-absorbent polymers has a soft-to-touch texture and sticky gel-based content. This type of synthetic and non-toxic polymer plays a significant role in keeping diapers dry and comfortable. In the agricultural arena, super absorbent polymer SAP is applied on the soil during plant bedding sessions as it helps to reduce the application of pesticides and fertilizer by improving the moisture retention capacity of the soil.
