Title: The Efficiency of Dehydration Desiccants by Centrifugation: An Assessment of Superabsorbent Polymers [Data Set] Open Access Deposited

Methodology
  • Data was produced by measuring the mass of saturated superabsorbent polymer samples before and after being spun in a centrifuge. Samples of superabsorbent polymers (SAP) were saturated in DI water, saline solution or mimic urine. ~0.12 g of saturated SAP was isolated in a mesh pocket and secured in a centrifuge tube. Parameters such as time, mesh pore size, rotor speed, and energy (correlated with time) were altered to determine the optimal centrifuge settings to extract the most solvent from the samples.
Description
  • This data is from a project concerned with dehydrating samples of saturated superabsorbent polymer using a centrifuge. The goal was to consider centrifugation as an energy efficient scheme to dehydrate SAP with the notion of reusing it. The data provided contains mass fractions of solvent removed through centrifugation with varied parameters.
