Research Summary

Super absorbent polymers (SAPs) are synthetic materials with the ability to absorb and retain large amounts of liquid relative to their own mass. These polymers are cross-linked networks of hydrophilic (water-attracting) polymer chains that can absorb water and other aqueous solutions through osmosis and swelling. SAPs are commonly used in a variety of absorbent applications, including diapers, sanitary napkins, adult incontinence products, and feminine hygiene products. They are also used in agriculture as soil conditioners and water retention agents to improve soil moisture levels and enhance plant growth. Additionally, SAPs find applications in industries such as packaging, food processing, and construction for moisture control, spill containment, and water-blocking purposes. The exceptional absorbency and retention properties of SAPs make them valuable materials in a wide range of consumer, industrial, and agricultural applications.
