How potassium polyacrylate improves soil

The growth of crops depends on the physical properties of the soil, so if you want to increase crop yields, you need to improve the physical properties of the soil. There are many conventional ways to improve soil physical properties. For example, soil eroded by acidic water can be improved by neutralizing it with plant ash.

After the use of super absorbent resin, most soil improvements choose to use SAP (potassium polyacrylate) polymer. This super absorbent resin has a very significant effect on the physical properties of the soil. It is most commonly used for water retention and fertilizer addition. Waiting for agricultural production.

SAP polymer can significantly improve sandy soil and make the soil aggregate, making it more suitable for crop cultivation. Potassium polyacrylate, as a highly water-absorbent resin, becomes gel-like after absorbing water and condenses soil particles into clumps.

SAP polymer improves soil pH

SAP polymers show optimal water absorption in neutral soils, with a slight decrease in alkaline and acidic soils. Notably, the polymer can also change soil pH; experiments have shown it can lower the pH of sandy clay and loam soils from 6.03 to 5.6.
