Superabsorbent Polymer Products

AuraChem supplies the AuraSorb range of superabsorbent polymers for liquid waste solidification, gel ice pack manufacturing and root-zone water management. Each series provides a different balance of absorption speed, liquid retention, material consistency and application performance.

Product performance can vary with liquid chemistry, solids content, salinity and the required handling outcome. We help customers identify the appropriate AuraSorb series and application rate through sample evaluation and practical testing.

Selecting the Appropriate AuraSorb Product

The most suitable superabsorbent polymer depends on the material being treated, its water chemistry, solids content and the required handling outcome. A product that performs well in one waste stream may not provide the same result in another. We work through the same process with every enquiry:

  1. Step 1

    Material Review

    We review a representative sample, operating conditions and required outcome, including free liquid, solids content, pH, conductivity and any known additives or contaminants.

  2. Step 2

    Product and Dose Testing

    Suitable grades are screened to establish an initial application rate and assess absorption speed, gel strength and final material consistency.

  3. Step 3

    Application Method

    We recommend how and where the selected product should be added and mixed, taking into account the customer’s tanks, bins, conveyors, excavators, dosing equipment or production process.

  4. Step 4

    Technical Documentation

    Selected grades are supported by the relevant Technical Data Sheet, Safety Data Sheet and batch Certificate of Analysis. Testing outcomes and recommended application rates can also be documented for customer review.

  5. Step 5
