Sodium Polyacrylate

Sodium Polyacrylate is a superabsorbent polymer consisting of big repeating subunits; it has been noted for an outstanding capacity to bind water. Many times, it is referred to as a "waterlock." It can absorb 100 to 1,000 times its weight in water. In cosmetic applications, it performs multi-functional roles, including thickening water-based formulations and stabilizing emulsions by aiding the mixing and sustaining the combination of water and oil.
