Arctic Gel™ 1010 is a superabsorbent polymer (SAP) from BASF that offers extraordinary gelling performance in gel packs and industrial applications. The product is available in different package sizes to meet end-use application needs.
Arctic Gel™ 1010 is a high-performance sodium acrylate-based superabsorbent polymer from BASF that is ideal for use in a wide range of consumer and industrial applications. It offers small and narrow particle size distribution for optimal gelling and absorption performance.
Superabsorbent polymers (SAP) absorb water and other fluids with a retention capacity of up to 1,000 times their weight. Arctic Gel™ 1010 is featured with a clear appearance, rapid gelling, and advanced moisture control that allows for absorbing and storing fluids inside the polymer matrix.
Arctic Gel™ 1010 is tailored toward consumer and industrial hydrogel applications for its high performance in cooling, absorbing moisture, and solidifying fluids.

Superabsorbent hydrogels and moisture-control applications
Superabsorbent polymers are sodium polyacrylate-based polymers that are engineered with high affinity for liquid absorption and can retain extremely large amounts of water relative to its own mass. SAPs are used in a variety of consumer and industrial applications, such as gel packs, hot and cool packs, absorbent and incontinence pads, baby diapers, waste disposal, and agriculture applications.
Superabsorbent polymers (SAPs) are the best solution nowadays for solidifying aqueous liquid wastes, mineral slurries, and sludge streams. SAPs are extremely fast and absorb multiple times their weight with minimal volume expansion, which saves time and space during their application.
