Water soluble polymers a unique formulation of Chemtex Speciality Limited, are used in various applications of water treatment such as in coagulation, flocculation and dispersion applications. The total absorbing and swelling capacity of the polymer is controlled by the type and degree of cross-linkers used to make the gel. Water soluble polymer, which are considered as hydrogels when cross-linked, absorb aqueous solutions with the help of hydrogen bonding with water molecules. Low-density cross-linked Water soluble polymer generally has a higher absorbent capacity and swells to a larger degree. Chemtex Speciality Limited is an ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001 certified company that specializes in the manufacturing of water soluble polymers. It has also established itself to be among world's renowned multipurpose chemical exporter having its facility in India.

Key Features and Benefits

• Multi functional
• Cost effective
• Used as dispersants
• High absorbent capacity

Super Absorbent polymers or SAP (also known as water absorbent powder) are polyacrylate based polymers that have the capacity of absorbtion upto 800 times of DM water of its own weight. The SAP's ability to absorb water is derived by the ionic concentration of the aqueous solution.SAP finds its use in various applications such as in baby diapers, adult protective underwear and sanitary napkins, candles, composites and laminates, insecticides and herbicides, diapers and incontinence garments, Fire-retardant gel, Hot & cold therapy pack, Water retention for supplying water to plants, Artificial Snow etc. The total absorbent capacity and swelling capacity are maintained by the type and degree of cross-linkers which are formulated into the gel. SAP has a softer and sticker gel formation. SAP is also used for blocking water penetration in underground power or communications cable, horticultural water retention agents, control of spill and waste aqueous fluid, and artificial snow for motion picture and stage production. Chemtex Speciality Limited is an ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001 certified company that specializes in the manufacturing of super absorbent polymers or SAPs. It has also established itself to be among world's renowned multipurpose chemical exporter having its facility in India. Chemtex's greatest business vitality and strength are its technical and manufacturing knowledge and a well developed technical service team.

Water Absorbent Polymers or WAP (also known as super absorbent powder) are polyacrylate polymers that have the capacity of absorb high amount of water. The Water Absorbent Polymer's ability to absorb moisture is derived by the ionic concentration of the aqueous solution. Water Absorbent Polymers finds its use in various applications. The total absorbing and swelling capacity of the polymer is controlled by the type and degree of cross-linkers used to make the gel. Low-density cross-linked Water Absorbent Polymer generally has a higher absorbent capacity and swell to a larger degree. Water-absorbing polymers, which are considered as hydrogels when cross-linked, absorb aqueous solutions with the help of hydrogen bonding with water molecules. . Chemtex Speciality Limited is an ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001 certified company that specializes in the manufacturing of water absorbent polymers Chemtex's greatest business vitality and strength are its technical and manufacturing knowledge and a well developed technical service team having its facility in India.

Chemtex Speciality Limited has been in this field of manufacturing industrial chemicals for the past 45 years and they are involved in the production of a varied range of polymers finding application in various fields. Polymer gels are comprised of cross-linked polymer network inflated with a solvent such as water. They exhibit the ability to reversibly swell or shrink due to small changes in their environment.

Micro sized gel fibers contract in milliseconds, while thick polymer layers require minutes to react. The most common Polymer Gels are poly vinyl alcohol (PVA), polyacrylicacid (PAA) and polyacrylonitrile (PAN), etc.

Hydrogel is a water absorption agent that once added to the soil or substrate will absorb and retain large quantities of water and nutrients, nearly up to 400 times its own weight.

This aqua absorbent act as a reservoir of water and will only use the reserved resource at the time of need, allowing a better agricultural yield. Hydrogel has a unique mechanism to absorb and retain water, discharging it only when the crop demands for it otherwise it does not lose out on the moisture level.

Hydrogel helps in:

• Increases water holding capacity of the soil
• It limits water and nutrient loss through soil leaching
• Reduces evaporation
• Improves the physical properties of soil by enhancing aeration (airflow)
• Enhances plant growth by providing water and nutrients to the root zone of the plants
• Helps in the long term protection of environment against drought and groundwater contamination

• Prevent dehydration of the seedlings
• Reduce transplanting shock and thereby reduce mortality rate of plants
• Mixed with cellulose mulch, it helps in stabilizing newly graded soils which are able to maintain a minimum amount of surface water
• Used in large scale farming where it increases soil aeration enhancing germination and development of roots
• When mixed with fertilizers, it can stably provide fertile nutrients to the roots for a longer period
• Reduces water stress by reducing irrigation frequencies by 30% - 50%

Chemtex Speciality Limited manufactures Potassium Polyacrylate that serves as potassium based Super Absorbent Polymer (SAP). It functions as a non-toxic polymer that accounts for having the capacity of absorbing water upto 300 – 500 times its size. Both potassium and sodium based polymers help in water retention but specifically Potassium Polyacrylate finds application in the agriculture industry whereas Sodium Polyacrylate cannot be used in agriculture as it tends to cause plant growth retardation. Potassium Polyacrylate, when incorporated into the soil, absorbs and retains large quantities of water and nutrients and it also possess the property of easily releasing the absorbed water, thereby allowing the plant to have water whenever required even in times of drought. It improves the soil structure and provides high utilization rate of water.
