High-performance absorption and liquid retention for diverse industries.

## Product terminology

- Super absorbent polymer (SAP), also written superabsorbent polymer or superabsorber, is available in different grades. Sodium polyacrylate and potassium polyacrylate have different applications; choose the material to suit the intended use.
- Product keywords: Super Absorbent Polymer (SAP); superabsorbent polymer; superabsorber; sodium polyacrylate; potassium polyacrylate

## Product information

- SAP swells in water to form a clear gel made up of individual particles. Its key benefit is the ability to retain absorbed water even under pressure.
- Our portfolio includes sodium polyacrylate and agricultural potassium polyacrylate. Different grades support food packaging, hygiene, pet care, agriculture, aroma beads and other applications. Contact us to select the appropriate grade and technical specifications.

## Product specifications

- Material: Super absorbent polymer (SAP)
- Dry form: White granules
- Select the grade for your intended application. Absorption performance and technical specifications vary by grade.

## Material form and application examples

- The supplied product image describes a white granular polymer raw material.
- Examples illustrated in the supplied gallery include diapers, pet pads and sanitary napkins.
- Select the application-appropriate grade with High Smart; performance and technical specifications vary by grade.

## From dry granules to hydrated gel.

- Fine white granules absorb water and form translucent, irregular gel particles.
- Before hydration: Fine white dry granules. After hydration: Translucent hydrated gel particles.
