Super Absorbent Polymer (1 lb Jar) – Instantly Makes Amazing Gel! Sodium Polyacrylate for Wow-Worthy Science Experiments, Magic Tricks, Sensory Bins, and DIY Cooling Packs

This was a much better price than what I bought previously. My young grandson uses this as part of a magic routine

I used this as an educational tool for what happens when we add something to a molecular structure. What helped even more was the package suggesting to add salt and watch the water separate from the product. More scientific schooling in that. Now it’s being used in homemade squishy things. The smell is rubbery but not overpowering. It stays on the state you mix it too. We’ve had some made for over a week and no separation. Fun on many levels for kids especially for those that need that tactile experience.

I use this for tattooing, and it does great. I use in my ink and dip cups when cleaning up after a tattoo. Quick acting and turns liquids solid. Would recommend.

This product will amaze you. These are very tiny microbeads (powerlike) and once fully hydrated will become a very clear transparent gel. No lumps. I didn't try this but I would guess that this container would probably fill a bathtub + with gel! I have taught biology and chemistry at the college levels for 25 years and was still amazed. I used this for gel ice packs. Simply add 1/2 tsp. water and any color food coloring you want to a gallon zip-lock bag and you will end up with a 25.00 ice pack. (add rubbing alcohol and it won't freeze solid) My grandkids made about 25 gallon sized packs for all their teammates. They use them to cool down during a baseball game sand still have plenty left. ARRIVED IN 2 DAYS...GOTTA LOVE THAT FREE PRIME SHIPPING!!!!!!!!!

Been using this item for years, works great in toilets to keep water from spilling when working on the flange or changing out toilets. Sprinkle a few spoonfuls in and it turns into a gel. My package this time got damaged, the cap was busted and shipping and had a little bit in my mailbox and in the bag. Didn't think it was a big deal, until I went out to mailbox after a rain and there was wet gel in there with a check, thankfully the check was not damaged just the junk mail :-)

Great product works as intended just have to give it 2 mins to work. If you are in the tattoo industry and need something to solidify your ink cups and wash out cups before disposal then this is your product. Also it is biodegradable. In two minutes the wash out cups were solid like jello then you can toss it in your bio waste garbage and recycle your cup

Works great

Exactly what I wanted. Made a few ice-packs with the stuff using zipper-seal bags. Took a bit of experimentation to get a preferred consistency. It does freeze as solid as regular water (great for ice chest use). The packs I made for muscle/joint soothing stay in the refrigerator as cool-packs, I just swap 'em out after they warm up. Also can be microwaved a short time to be used as a warm-pack. Note: this stuff can squeeze through the zipper seal over time so it's best to either permanently heat-seal the bag or at least double-bag. For ice-packs I found a 5:1 ratio of water to rubbing alcohol loosens it up a little so it doesn't freeze completely solid so quickly. best to add the rubbing alcohol after the sodium polyacrylate has had time to fully absorb the water.

Works great is plants
