吸収性ゲル化材は、無毒、無害、無公害のポリマーである。

Absorbent Gelling Material (also known as Super Absorbent Polymer or SAP) is a non-toxic, harmless, and non-polluting polymer renowned for its exceptional water absorption and retention capabilities. It is widely utilized in the manufacturing of diapers and lady sanitary napkins.

Characteristics of Absorbent Gelling Material (AGM) include:

1. Reduced Residual Monomer: AGM has minimal residual monomer content, ensuring safety and reliability.
2. Fast Absorbent Rate & Small Particle Size: It exhibits a rapid absorbent rate and features small particle sizes, enhancing its performance in absorbing moisture effectively.
3. Excellent Absorption under Pressure: AGM maintains its absorbency even under pressure, making it ideal for applications where consistent performance is required.

AGM is commonly incorporated into the padding of diapers to efficiently absorb wetness. This material has a long history of safe usage and has been a staple in popular diaper brands such as Pampers and Luvs for over two decades. AGM is closely related to ingredients widely used in cosmetics, food processing, and as binders in medicine capsules.

When AGM is added to diapers, it initially appears as dry granules but transforms into a gel upon absorbing liquid. It is normal to observe some gel on the skin, particularly in heavily saturated diapers.

For further assurance, the Institute for Polyacrylate Absorbents has conducted extensive research on the safety of consumer products containing absorbent gels and has confirmed their safety.
