Super absorbent polymer, abbreviated SAP, is a high-molecular material that can absorb hundreds of times its own weight in water. Drop it into water, and within minutes it swells into a transparent gel. Squeeze it with your hand and the water does not easily come out.
What material is it exactly? Academically it is called a super absorbent polymer, a type of functional polymer material. The common system is sodium polyacrylate, polymerized from acrylic acid monomers, with hydrophilic groups densely hung along the molecular chains. These groups act like countless tiny hands that catch water molecules one by one, forming a water-locking network.
The biggest features of this material are fast absorption, firm water locking, and no re-wetting. That is why diapers, sanitary napkins, fresh food absorbent pads, ice packs, and agricultural water retention agents all depend on it.
