Sodium polyacrylate: Anybody used it for humiditycontrol
    #8807727 - 08/21/08 07:55 PM (15 years, 5 months ago)

Topic says it all, more or less... except what Sodium polyacrylate is: it is a super absorbent polymer- it will absorb 300-400 times its own weight in water. So I am thinking it would do a good job of keeping the air moist for an extended period of time.

Has anybody tried it?

I tryed to use it but it didnt allow enough water to escape so humidification took like a week. Also its really expensive, 1lb of the crystaline form is 20.00 USD

I wondered if it would do that, which is why I asked :smile:
PS: I have ~70ml of it sitting around waiting for a use. My teacher didn't mind handing out safer chemicals.

Try it, I think if you bubbled air thru it that would help.
