%X Six polymers representing different side-chain charges, molecular weights, and   degree of cross-link are studied for their water and nutrient retention in soils. The   results indicate that superabsorbent polymer representing high degree of cross-link   help the soil retain water best. Polyacrylamides help the soils from being   washed away (by increasing the sedimentation rates). Polyacrylamides also help   the soils retain the calcium ion nutrients.
