Sodium Polyacrylate Production Cost Reports

The report provides a detailed analysis essential for establishing a sodium polyacrylate manufacturing plant. It encompasses all critical aspects necessary for sodium polyacrylate production, including the cost of sodium polyacrylate production, sodium polyacrylate plant cost, sodium polyacrylate production costs, and the overall sodium polyacrylate manufacturing plant cost. Additionally, the study covers specific expenditures associated with setting up and operating a sodium polyacrylate production plant. These encompass manufacturing processes, raw material requirements, utility requirements, infrastructure needs, machinery and technology requirements, manpower requirements, packaging requirements, transportation requirements, and more.

Sodium polyacrylate is a well-known polymer variety chiefly associated with the agricultural, chemical, and coatings industries. It is a super absorbent polymer that is primarily used for the production of personal care and hygiene products. It is used to produce disposable napkins, sanitary diapers, etc.

The polymer is also included in the formulations of agrochemicals that improve the water retention ability when mixed with the soil. Sodium polyacrylate serves as a coagulating agent and contributes to water purification activities. Moreover, the compound is used to produce coatings such as paints with better durability on a large scale.

The market for sodium polyacrylate is dependent upon its demand in the agrochemical, chemical, and coatings industries. Its usage in several commercial operations, including water treatment, agrochemical production for agricultural operations, and production of personal care products, increases its demand in the market.

The usage of sodium polyacrylate as a superabsorbent polymer, or SAP, in personal hygiene products such as napkins and diapers propels its demand for sanitation products. Moreover, its usage in the production of coatings and agrochemical products drives its demand in the chemical and agrochemical industries.

The industrial sodium polyacrylate procurement is strongly impacted by its demand in the agrochemical, chemical, and coatings industries. Other vital factors, such as its production cost, supply, distribution, and logistics, also influence its procurement across various regions. Hence, changes in any of these factors, specifically its demand for end-use coatings, sanitation products, and agrochemicals, along with its supply and market prices, determine its procurement in the global market.

Raw Material for Sodium Polyacrylate Production

According to the sodium polyacrylate manufacturing plant project report, the key raw materials for sodium polyacrylate production includes sodium hydroxide-acrylic acid; starch-acrylic acid.

Manufacturing Process of Sodium Polyacrylate

The extensive sodium polyacrylate production cost report consists of the following major industrial manufacturing process:

• From Sodium Hydroxide and Acrylic Acid: The production process of sodium polyacrylate is carried out by the chemical reaction between sodium hydroxide and acrylic acid. It is then polymerized to produce sodium polyacrylate as the end product.
• From Starch and Acrylic Acid: Sodium polyacrylate is produced from starch and acrylic acid. The starch obtained from corn is grafted using acrylic acid and then saponified using sodium hydroxide. The reaction leads to the production of sodium polyacrylate at the end.

Sodium polyacrylate is a white or light-yellow powder that is odorless and tasteless. It is a water-soluble polymer that, when dissolved in water, generates a clear and viscous solution. It has a high capacity for water absorption and can absorb up to 300 times its weight in water. It expands and creates a gel-like substance that is insoluble in water when it absorbs water. Because of its features, it can be used in a range of applications, covering agricultural, coatings and chemical industries.
