Ultra / Wasaka Gel Pouches

 Ultra Gel, a sodium based synthetic polymer, serves as a moisture & water absorbent  polymer that manifests the capacity of absorbing upto 400 – 600 times of DM water of its own weight. The ability of Ultra Gel to absorb moisture / water is derived by the  ionic concentration of the aqueous solution. 

Ultra gel sachets constitute a group of polymeric materials, the hydrophilic structure of  which renders them capable of holding large amounts of moisture & water in their threedimensional networks. Extensive employment of these products in a number of industrial  and environmental areas of application is considered to be of prime importance. 

Ultra Gel has received FDA approval and is classified as GRAS, or Generally Recognized  as Safe. It is also CIR (Cosmetic Ingredient Review) approved. 

Ultra Gel polymer can retain excessive amounts of moisture & water because of the  osmotic pressure (i.e. movement of water through a semipermeable membrane). Osmotic  pressure induced by the high moisture con-centration outside a ultra gel molecule draws  the moisture into the center of the molecule. Ultra Gel continues to absorb the moisture until there is an equal pressure of water inside and outside the ultra gel molecule. 

The more tightly enclosed the more vapor - proof you can make the Storage area   being protected the better, otherwise ultra gel will drink up moisture from all  outdoors best to make the protected are vapor-proofs as possible.
