Report Summary

Super Absorbent Polymer is a macro molecular synthetic water absorbing polymer material also known as SAP, hydrogel, absorbent polymers, and absorbent gels among others. Super absorbent polymers are white hygroscopic materials that swell in water to retain moisture without conflagration or rupturing. These polymers are used in a wide range of applications such as diapers, adult incontinence products, feminine hygiene products, and other similar applications. Super absorbent polymers are used in agriculture for improving soil quality, preserving water and resisting drought stress. It also improves seed sprouting and seedling development increasing the overall farm productivity.
