Polyacrylic acid (PAA) is a synthetic high-molecular-weight polymer made from acrylic acid monomers, known for its excellent water absorption, dispersing, and thickening properties. It appears as a white powder or viscous liquid depending on formulation and is widely used in detergents, superabsorbent materials, water treatment, adhesives, coatings, and biomedical applications. Its ability to bind water and ions makes it especially valuable in hygiene products like diapers and in industrial processes requiring controlled viscosity and stability.
Setting up a polyacrylic acid production plant requires sourcing acrylic acid, establishing polymerization units, and ensuring process controls for reaction stability. Key considerations include raw material availability, energy-efficient equipment, wastewater treatment, and compliance with environmental and safety standards. Strategic location and scalable technology are essential for optimizing cost and meeting industry demand.
