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.
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.
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.

Dosage of defoamer. A defoamer or an anti-foaming agent is a chemical additive that reduces and hinders the formation of foam in industrial process liquids. The terms anti-foam agent and defoamer are often used interchangeably. Strictly speaking, defoamers eliminate existing foam and anti-foamers prevent the formation of further foam.
Sugar-sweetened beverages were responsible for an estimated 9.8% of new type 2 diabetes cases and 3.1% of cardiovascular disease cases worldwide in 2020, a new study found.
Acids are classified as either weak or strong (and bases similarly may be either weak or strong).Similarly, polyelectrolytes can be divided into "weak" and "strong" types. A "strong" polyelectrolyte dissociates completely in solution for most reasonable pH values.
Polycarboxylates are organic compounds with several carboxylic acid groups. 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.
