The Performance of Super Absorbent Polymer (SAP) Water-Retaining Asphalt Mixture. [PDF]
Materials (Basel), 2019 Lowering the temperature of the road surface is one efficient way to alleviate the urban heat island effect. Therefore water-retaining asphalt mixture was produced by adding super absorbent polymer (SAP) containing cement mortar to the porous asphalt mixture.

Chloride Diffusion in Concrete Modified with Polyacrylic Superabsorbent Polymer (SAP) Hydrogel—The Influence of the Water-to-Cement Ratio and SAP-Entrained Water [PDF]
Materials, 2021 This paper examines the influence of polyacrylic superabsorbent polymers (SAP) on the properties concerning chloride diffusion in cementitious materials. The conducted study investigated the influence of SAP on chloride diffusion in concretes of the initial w/c = 0.4 (for which the changes in compressive strength due to the SAP presence were negligible)
