Properties and valuable applications of superabsorbent

Coating of the super absorbent polymer on the seed increases the survival rate of the seed. SAP can absorb water at a rate between 200 and 400 times its weight and increase its size by up to 100 times its original size, thus making the seed heavy and keeping it deeply buried in the soil which prevents it from blowing away due to wind.
