Alsta Hydrogel
Science and Technology have always given new ideas and innovations to 
agricultural sector in order to improve their crop production, incorporating new 
techniques to curb the losses caused due to uneven natural circumstances and 
changing the total scenario around the business. One such development is the 
introduction of water absorbent technology. About 40% potable water is used 
by agricultural sectors and the sharp decline that has been observed in its 
availability has made every farmer think different ways on its conservation.
What Is It
Water Absorbent Technology through super absorbent 
polymer is one of the revolutionary as well as economical 
way to solve the water crisis in the irrigational field. The 
unique formulation of a super absorbent polymer not 
only solves the water related problem but also upgrade 
the soil texture upon its application. 
Attributes
• Higher rate of absorption in 
extreme conditions
• Low soluble content and residual 
monomer
• Reusability
• Non-polluting and Biodegradable
How does it work
Super Absorbent Polymer granules mix up between soil 
particles and on contact with water molecule, swells up 
forming beads owing to water absorbent technology. 
These beads release water to keep the surrounding 
conditions moist whenever the same starts drying up and 
the best part about using this polymer is its reusability. 
What makes it work
Super absorbent polymer has a cross-linking molecular 
structure with a hydrophilic group attached, which 
absorbs water about 400-600 times of its own weight and 
acts as a replicated small reservoir of water. The polymer 
can be used to trap rain water which can be released 
later at the time of requirement over longer durations. 
Alsta Hydrogel
Alsta Hydrogel, potassium polyacrylate based super absorbent 
polymer for agriculture manufactured by Chemtex Speciality Limited 
meets the standard needs & requirement of the agricultural sectors.
