2. Sodium polyacrylate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_polyacrylate

   Sodium polyacrylate (ACR, ASAP, or PAAS), [1]: 233 also known as waterlock, is a sodium salt of polyacrylic acid with the chemical formula [−CH 2 −CH(CO 2 Na)−] n and has broad applications in consumer products.

3. Polyacrylic acid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyacrylic_acid

   Polyacrylic acid is a weak anionic polyelectrolyte, whose degree of ionisation is dependent on solution pH. In its non-ionised form at low pHs, PAA may associate with various non-ionic polymers (such as polyethylene oxide, poly-N-vinyl pyrrolidone, polyacrylamide, and some cellulose ethers) and form hydrogen-bonded interpolymer complexes. [17]

4. Polycarboxylates - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polycarboxylates

   Butane-1,2,3,4-tetracarboxylate is one example. Often, polycarboxylate refers to linear polymers with a high molecular mass (M r ≤ 100 000) and with many carboxylate groups. They are polymers of acrylic acid or copolymers of acrylic acid and maleic acid. The polymer is used as the sodium salt (see: sodium polyacrylate). [1]

5. Acrylate polymer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acrylate_polymer

   Structure of a polyacrylate polymer. An acrylate polymer (also known as acrylic or polyacrylate) is any of a group of polymers prepared from acrylate monomers. These plastics are noted for their transparency, resistance to breakage, and elasticity. Acrylate polymer is commonly used in cosmetics, such as nail polish, as an adhesive. [1]

6. Superabsorbent polymer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superabsorbent_polymer

   Superabsorbent polymers are now commonly made from the polymerization of acrylic acid blended with sodium hydroxide in the presence of an initiator to form a poly-acrylic acid sodium salt (sometimes referred to as sodium polyacrylate). This polymer is the most common type of SAP made in the world today. According to the U.S. Food & Drug ...

7. Acrylate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acrylate

   Structure of the backbone of a cyanoacrylate polymer. In the same way that several variants of acrylic esters are known, so too are the corresponding polymers. Their properties strongly depends on the substituent. A large family of acrylate-like polymers are derived from methyl methacrylate and many related esters, especially polymethyl ...

8. Acrylic acid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acrylic_acid

   Acrylic acid and its esters readily combine with themselves (to form polyacrylic acid) or other monomers (e.g. acrylamides, acrylonitrile, vinyl compounds, styrene, and butadiene) by reacting at their double bond, forming homopolymers or copolymers, which are used in the manufacture of various plastics, coatings, adhesives, elastomers, as well ...

9. Carboxylic acid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carboxylic_acid

   Industrially important carboxylic acids include acetic acid (component of vinegar, precursor to solvents and coatings), acrylic and methacrylic acids (precursors to polymers, adhesives), adipic acid (polymers), citric acid (a flavor and preservative in food and beverages), ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (chelating agent), fatty acids (coatings ...
