Super Absorbent Polymer (SAP) is a new type macro molecular synthetic material, which can absorb water of hundreds times of its weight in a short time and form granule formations in soil to enhance dank and ventilating ability. It is one kind of functionality macro molecule polymer which is non-toxic, non-irritating and non-corrosive. It can not conflagrate and blast.

Super Absorbent Polymer is natural, biodegradable starch-based formulation. It demonstrates greater water absorption potential and the ability to freely release water under suction pressure by plant roots.

Benefits:

The product can improve soil quality, preserve water and resist drought, producing a better environment for seeds to sprout and develop. It is harmless and non-polluting with super water absorbing ability and water preserving ability while the absorbed water cannot be squeezed out in simply physical ways and it can release and absorb water repeatedly.

• Used in agriculture and forestry, it can form a micro reservoir at plants root. It can absorb natural water which quantity can reach around 250-400 times by its self-weight. It also has better water-retention.

• SAP can release and absorb water repeatedly, the water which it absorbs can be absorbed slowly by the seed and plant-root, so this will increase soil moisture effectively and decrease the times of irrigation.

• Using this product can save water, labour, and increase the livability for the transplant.

• Applying SAP in the drought season, dry land, mountainous area & sloping field, mine terra and desert, can improve virescence effectively, and accelerate to restore the zoology environment.

• SAP can be applied together with fertilizer, pesticide, micro-element, radication powder, etc. It can make them release slowly and increase the effects of the fertilization and pesticide, decrease loss of soil nutrients and protect underground water circumstance.

• SAP has flocculation function to make fine dust of the soil to become loosed big grains; this can prevent soil to be harden. During repeatedly absorb-release water, it can make soil loosen thus to promote soil edaphon development and increase crop quantity.

• It is widely used in agriculture and forestry industry, municipal gardening, drought resisting and water preserving, and sand resisting and controlling aspects, and is playing an important role.

• SAP will significantly reduce water depletion while dramatically improving plant survival and growth. It will also reduce water runoff and soil erosion, thus improving the quality of our lakes, streams and rivers. Cost-efficient water management is of particular importance for the agricultural and horticultural industry, e.g. for tree nurseries growing high-value trees and shrubs. With severe droughts occurring on a more frequent basis due to global warming, SAP can help plants survive by reducing irrigation requirements up to 50%.

• Packaging & Transportation: SAP in ice bags acts as a perfect insulation package (box, case, barrel etc.) and are widely used in transportation of temperature sensitive products such as medicines, blood, vaccines, flowers, fruits, aquatic products and biological agents. Swollen SAP's have the capacity to retain heat or cold for prolonged periods and are useful in hot/cool packs in the packaging industry.

• Industrial Waste Management: Hazardous and non-hazardous industrial waste streams must often be solidified and stabilized to pass the Paint Filter Test prior to placement in an appropriately permitted landfill. SAP materials help in safe, effective, and economical liquid waste solidification and stabilization of hazardous, non-hazardous, and low-level radioactive waste. Given the capacity of SAP to retain substantial volumes of water there is limited increase in weight of the solidified mass, thereby minimizing transportation and disposal costs.

• Waste water Treatment: Due to SAP's absorbency and chelating capability to heavy metal ions, it can seize heavy metal ions in solution for the recovery of precious metals, so SAP is widely used in treating water from metallurgy, mining, and electroplating.

• Flood Control: Giving way to traditional sand bags for sudden flood control, new SAP filled self-inflating bags are in demand. These bags are more effective, easier to deploy and much more compact to store and distribute. On-site testing has proved that the self inflating bags are NINE times faster then traditional sandbags in controlling flood. It saves both time and manpower effectively.

• Floral Decoration: Crystal Soil is an one kind of Super Absorbent Polymer (SAP) which is also known as crystal beads, water gel, crystal pearls, water pearl, magic crystal, flora gel, decorative jelly. Crystal soil is a perfect substitute for dirty soil for floral decoration with plants. It can not only play the decorative function, but also reduce plant watering by up to 50% due to its ability of absorbing up to 200 times its weight in water. Furthermore, it is able to repeatedly absorb and release water for many times.

Apart from above, other industries where SAP is used:

• Absorbent films

Artificial snow is an amazing chemical or polymer that turns ordinary water into a fluffy substance that looks like real snow. This faux snow is so realistic that it is now being used on movie sets and in indoor snowboarding parks.This fake snow is in a classification of chemicals called a polymer.Just add water to the mysterious white powder and in seconds the transformation begins. The liquid magically changes into a fluffy white powder that looks just like snow. It's actually a safe, non-toxic polymer that absorbs water and fluffs up to look like snow.
