What are the factors that controlling the absorption capacity of water super-absorption polymer salts? like Sodium polyacrylate?
Dear Feras M. Kafiah,
firstable you should have an information on the Donnan equilibrium. The main two operating factors are the highest molecular weight and the degree of ionisation. This subject is more treated for the case of superabsorbers polymer gels. Regards
Degree of crosslinking and pH are two important factors that control the capacity of water absorption. Regards.
