A material is considered superabsorbent if its absorption capacity exceeds 10 times its weight, some materials have exceeded 1000 times its weight. Superabsorbent polymers (SAPs) are primarily used as an absorbent for water and aqueous solutions for diapers, adult incontinence products, feminine hygiene products, and similar applications. Undoubtedly, in these applications, superabsorbent materials will replace traditional absorbent materials such as cloth, cotton, paper wadding, and cellulose fiber. Superabsorbent materials are traditionally made of synthetic copolymer hydrogels, which have limited biodegradability. The most successful commercially used types of SAPs are acrylate-based, which include poly(acrylic acid)s, poly(acrylamide)s, poly(acrylonitrile)s and their salts. The acrylate-based SAPs have superior water-absorbent properties, but they have high molecular weight and in addition an entirely carbon atom-based and cross-linked backbone. These factors endow them with poor (bio)degradability, which has a devastating impact on the environment where such SAP-containing materials may end up at the end of their lifetime. To overcome the shortcomings of the existing SAPs, bio-based and degradable SAPs are required. According to market research study published by Gen Consulting Company, the market size of the global biodegradable SAPs sector is expected to rise by USD 32.0 million with a CAGR of 7.7% by the end of 2029.
