Superabsorbent polymers (SAP) play a vital role in hygiene products, especially sodium polyacrylate, also known as superabsorbent, which is the sodium salt of polyacrylic acid. Its remarkable ability to absorb 200 to 1000 times its own weight in water makes it invaluable in a variety of applications.
SAP can be divided into three main grades: health grade, agricultural grade and industrial grade. Its primary functions include effectively absorbing, retaining or blocking liquids.
Applications in hygiene products:
Diaper:
The SAP used in diapers has excellent permeability, strong absorption capacity, and can remain leak-free for a long time under pressure.
Women’s sanitary napkins:
SAP in sanitary napkins provides fast blood absorption, high liquid capacity, good gel strength and moisture resistance. This ensures women stay dry and comfortable during use.
