BACKGROUND The primary aim of the present study was to investigate if exposure to dust from absorbent hygiene products containing superabsorbent polymer is related to symptoms from the airways and from the eyes. The secondary aim was to estimate the current exposure to superabsorbent polymer among production and maintenance workers in a plant producing hygiene products. METHODS The cohort com...

abstract in this study the effects and costs of application of two kinds of super absorbent polymer on the establishment and surviving of seedlings was investigated. experiments were done in the field and on two kind of soil with different salinity (ec: 4.5 and 8 dsm-1). the results showed: the establishment rate of seedling in control was about 40 percent. the percentage of seedling establishm...

in order to study the effects of a superabsorbent polymer on yield and yield components of dry land wheat cultivars, a field experiment was carried out in factorial arrangement using randomized complete block design with four replications on research field in khomein city, during 2010-2011 cropping season. the experimental factors included three dry land cultivars called azar2, sardari, rasad a...

The article presents an analysis of the results experimental studies effect different types a super absorbent polymer additive on strength concrete. study is aimed at effectiveness new type in concrete structures. In course full-scale experiments, it was possible to identify optimum dosage SAP for fine-grained and heavy concretes. addition, showed that remains unchanged if (SAP) 0.5% weight cem...

BACKGROUND: Polyacrylamide is the main synthetic polymer used, and it absorbs water through the formation of hydrogen bonds. Super Absorbent Polymer (SAP) can absorb water up to 200-400 times its weight and increase its size by up to 100 times. OBJECTIVES: Evaluate effect of different irrigation regime and super absorbent polymer on agrop...

decreasing water loss and increasing the irrigation times are basic methods to develop agriculture, success in natural recourse projects, minimize the stress to planted bushes in natural fields and increase the productivity of soil and water sources. the use of super absorbent is one of these strategies to achieve these goals. the main purpose of this research was to study the effect of super a...
