Sodium polyacrylate is a widely used polymer with many different applications.  It is used in laundry detergents as a sequestering agent to bind elements in hard water such as Calcium & Magnesium so that the surfactants work better and clothes get cleaner. At the right molecular weight, it makes sticky solutions that can be sprayed on dirt roads for dust control. With special treatment and at very low concentrations (1/4 – 1/2 %), it becomes a “carbomer” that makes a clear, sodium polyacrylate gel for hair care and personal care products.
