Hydrogels - SAP
Superabsorbent technology to maximize water retention and optimize agricultural performance.
Water Availability as a Limiting Factor
-
75% of water resources are used in agriculture.
-
Water scarcity is increasing.
-
Water-use efficiency is no longer optional: it is strategic.
What Are Jessoil K Hydrogels?
-
White granular polymers
-
Absorption capacity > 500 times their weight
-
Composition (potassium polyacrylate)
Product Characteristics
Property | Value | Notes |
|---|---|---|
Appearance | White granule | Solid granular polymer |
Composition | Potassium polyacrylate | Potassium salt of polyacrylic acid |
Absorption capacity in purified water | > 500 times its original weight | May vary depending on water quality |
Absorption capacity in saline water | Variable depending on salinity | Decreases with higher conductivity |
