Sodium polyacrylate also named acrylic sodium salt polymer, ASAP, the super-slurper (because of its ability to absorb as much as 200 to 300 times its mass in water) is a polymer widely used in consumer products with a formula of [-CH2-CH(COONa)-] repeating. Acrylate polymers generally are considered to possess an anionic charge. While sodium neutralized acrylates are the most common form used in industry, there are also other salts available including potassium, lithium and ammonium. Text Reff: Wikipedia
