Sodium Polyacrylate
by Mitesh Patel Water Treatment Chemicals ManufacturerSodium
Polyacrylate Powder:
SPA, otherwise known as the
super-slurper, acrylic sodium salt polymer and simply ASAP, is a
super-absorbent chemical polymer (i.e. it can absorb water many times its own
weight) extensively used in a range of consumer goods.
CAS No.
9003-04-7
PAAS (super-absorbent)
Brand Name: ZEELCHEM™ PAAS
Sodium Polyacrylate (ZEEL PRODUCT)
Properties:
PASS is a synthetic polymer
used in cosmetics and personal care products in part because of its ability to
absorb as much as 500 times its mass in water. It is seen as a white powder
when dry, but turns into a gel-like substance when wet, and is primarily used
as a thickening agent.

Uses:
It is also used in a
variety of formulas because of its other properties, including as an absorbing
agent, emulsion stabilizer, film former, emollient, and viscosity increasing
agent. It is also used as a sequestering agent in cleansers and detergents because
of its ability to bind to hard water elements like calcium and magnesium,
allowing the surfactants to work more effectively.
It has received FDA
approval and is classified as GRAS, or Generally Recognized as Safe. It is also
CIR approved for use in cosmetics and personal care products.

Sodium Polyacrylate (ZEEL
PRODUCT)
Polymeric
Gel:
Sodium Polyacrylate
crystallizes as white powder. It takes up water as much as 400 to 500 times its
Dry size and swells to form a polymeric gel.
Mechanism:
This polymer can retain
excessive amounts of water because of the osmotic pressure (i.e. movement of
water through a semipermeable membrane). Osmotic pressure induced by the high
water concentration outside a sodium polyacrylate molecule draws the water into
the center of the molecule. polymer continues to absorb the water until there
is an equal pressure of water inside and outside the sodium polyacrylate
molecule.
Charged Ions Sodium
Polyacrylate is characterized by anionic charge. It is also the most common
variety of acryl polymers used in industry.
