Acrylic acid is a vital industrial chemical known for its ability to undergo rapid polymerization and form a wide range of useful derivatives. It plays a critical role in the production of super absorbent polymers, coatings, adhesives, and performance-enhancing polymers across various industries. Its reactive double bond and carboxylic acid group allow it to be easily modified or polymerized, making it an essential building block in modern chemistry.

One of its most significant applications is in the manufacture of super absorbent polymers (SAPs), such as sodium polyacrylate, which are extensively used in personal hygiene products like baby diapers, adult incontinence products, and sanitary napkins due to their high water retention capabilities.

In the paint and coatings industry, acrylic acid is used to produce acrylate esters that serve as key ingredients in water-based paints, offering excellent durability, weather resistance, and adhesion. Similarly, these esters are used in adhesives and sealants, providing flexibility and strong bonding characteristics needed for industrial and consumer-grade applications.

The textile and leather industries utilize acrylic acid-based polymers to impart softness, wrinkle resistance, and water repellency to fabrics, while in the plastic industry, it is used to enhance the properties of PVC and other polymers, improving their impact resistance and processability.

Acrylic acid is also valuable in water treatment where its polymers function as dispersants, scale inhibitors, and flocculants. In agriculture, its derivatives are used in moisture-retaining soil conditioners and controlled-release fertilizers, promoting efficient water usage and sustainable farming.

Additionally, acrylic acid finds application in detergents and cleaning products, as its polymers help prevent redeposition of dirt and improve rinsing performance. In the medical field, acrylic-based hydrogels are used in wound care, drug delivery systems, and soft contact lenses due to their biocompatibility and moisture-retaining properties.

With its wide scope of applications and chemical versatility, acrylic acid remains a cornerstone in the development of functional and high-performance materials that support everyday life and industrial efficiency.

• Absorption Capacity (CRC): ~300–1200 g/g
   
• Absorption Under Load (AUL): ~20–70 g/g
   
• Gel Strength
   
• Residual Monomer (< 500 ppm is typical)
   
• Particle Size Distribution
   
• pH of solution in distilled water

• Acrylic Acid (CH₂=CHCOOH) is the primary monomer.
   
• Neutralization: Acrylic acid is partially neutralized (usually ~75%) with sodium hydroxide (NaOH) to form sodium acrylate.
  Reaction:
  CH2=CHCOOH+NaOH→CH2=CHCOONa+H2O

• The partially neutralized acrylic acid (sodium acrylate) is polymerized using a free radical initiator (e.g., ammonium persulfate or azo compounds).
   
• Crosslinking agents (like MBAA – N,N'-Methylenebisacrylamide or PEGDA – Polyethylene glycol diacrylate) are added to create a 3D network structure.
   
• Polymerization Conditions:
   
  • Temperature: ~60–80°C
     
  • Reaction Medium: Aqueous solution or gel
     
  • Time: ~1–2 hours
     

• The polymerization forms a hydrogel — a jelly-like mass of crosslinked sodium polyacrylate.
   
• The crosslinking is what gives the SAP its super absorbent properties — it locks water within the polymer matrix.
   

• The hydrogel is crushed or extruded into small pieces.
   
• Drying is done using hot air ovens, belt dryers, or fluidized bed dryers at ~150°C until the water content is below ~5%.
   

• The dry polymer is ground into fine particles and sieved to control particle size distribution — often in the 100–850 microns range depending on application (e.g., baby diapers, adult pads, agriculture).
   

• For improved gel strength and absorbency under pressure (AUL), a surface crosslinking process is used.
   
• The dried particles are sprayed with a crosslinker solution (e.g., ethylene glycol diglycidyl ether or alcohol-based crosslinkers) and heated again (160–200°C).
   
• This forms an extra crosslinked layer on the particle surface.
   

• Sometimes additives like surfactants, antimicrobial agents, colorants, or anti-caking agents are added.
   
• Final product is blended in mixers for consistency.
   

• The SAP is packed in moisture-proof bags (paper with PE liners or multilayer plastic).
   
• Storage in cool, dry areas is essential as SAP can degrade with moisture or heat.
   

• Raw Material: Acrylamide (CH₂=CHCONH₂) is the primary monomer.
   
• Source: Acrylamide is typically produced via the hydration of acrylonitrile using a biocatalyst (nitrile hydratase).
   
• Purification: High-purity acrylamide is essential to avoid side reactions during polymerization.
   

Polymerization can be carried out in three main ways:

• Aqueous Solution Polymerization (most common)
   
• Inverse Emulsion/Suspension Polymerization
   
• Gel Polymerization

• Initiator: Free-radical initiators such as ammonium persulfate (APS), often combined with a redox system (e.g., sodium bisulfite).
   
• Reaction Conditions:
   
  • Temperature: 30–60°C (controlled to prevent thermal runaway)
     
  • pH: Slightly acidic or neutral depending on desired polymer
     
• Polymerization: Acrylamide monomers are polymerized to form a linear chain.

• Acrylamide and water-soluble co-monomers are emulsified in a hydrocarbon oil with surfactants.
   
• Initiators start the polymerization in the water droplets.
   
• Used for producing liquid or emulsion PAM, especially for high molecular weight products.
   

• Acrylamide solution is polymerized in molds or trays to form a gel.
   
• Gel is then chopped, dried, and ground into powder or granules.
   
• Used for powder grade PAM.

• Neutralization (for anionic PAM): Partial hydrolysis of amide groups to carboxylic acid groups using sodium hydroxide.
   
• Modification (for cationic PAM): Co-polymerization with cationic monomers like DADMAC or APTAC.
   
• Drying: Spray drying or belt drying for powder products.
   
• Milling and Sieving: Final particle size is adjusted.
   
• Blending: Optional blending with other polymers or surfactants.

• Forms: Powder, granules, emulsions, or liquids.
   
• Storage: In moisture-proof containers; PAM is hygroscopic and should be protected from light and heat.
