Popular Uses & How to Use:

1. Science Absorption Experiment
Add 1g of Sodium Polyacrylate to a cup. Pour in 100–300ml of water slowly. Watch the powder expand into gel. Do not eat or touch eyes after handling.

2. Artificial Snow Effect
Place 5g of polymer in a container. Add 500ml–1L of water gradually until fluffy. Mix gently. Use for display only, not for children under 3 years.

3. Gardening Water Retention Test
Mix a very small amount, around 1–2g per litre of soil, and water thoroughly. Avoid overuse, as expansion may disturb soil structure.

4. Moisture Control Demonstration
Sprinkle 2–5g into a tray and add water step by step. Observe how liquid turns into gel. Dispose of in household waste, not drains.

5. STEM Classroom Project
Use 1g samples for controlled experiments comparing water absorption rates. Wear gloves, avoid inhaling dust, and clean surfaces after use.

❓ FAQ:

1. What is Sodium Polyacrylate used for?
It is commonly used for science experiments, artificial snow, water absorption demonstrations, gardening tests and STEM education.

2. How much water does it absorb?
Absorption depends on water quality, but small amounts can absorb many times their own weight in water.

3. Is this product food safe?
No. This product is not for food, cosmetic, medical or internal use.

4. Can it be poured down the sink?
No. Do not dispose of Sodium Polyacrylate gel in drains, toilets or sinks, as it may cause blockages.

5. What sizes are available?
Available in 100g, 250g and 500g aluminium bags. 500g may be shipped as 2 x 250g depending on stock.
