Sodium Polyacrylate Super Absorbent Polymer
Size: 20-100 mesh = 0.850mm-0.150mm. Granules are as small as white sugar. Fast-acting. Rapidly solidifies water-based liquids into a gel form.
Package: 5 pounds bag
Super Absorbent Polymer (SAP) can absorb and retain enormous amounts of a liquid relative to its mass. For example, SAP may absorb up to 600 times its weight (from 30 to 60 times its volume) and can become up to 99.9% liquid, but when put into a 0.9% saline solution, the absorbency drops to approximately 50 times its weight.
Suggested usages are as follows:
- Control of spill and waste aqueous fluid (Gel pet urine- one scoop sprinkled on the pad gets up the urine, and the pad lasts for days)
- Coolant (i.e., ice pack, neck cooler, headband cooler)
- Educational science projects
- Entertainment (i.e., magic tricks)
- Horticultural water retention agents
- Sensory play (i.e., sensory table, sensory beans)
- Moisture remover
- Magic tricks
- Humidifier
- Basketball hoop base filler
- Flood control
