For it's back. it's spreads out the pressure, so when the horse has a back problem you don't put so much pressure on it. Oh: and it's a shock absorber. Think about it: it you wear a gel pad in your shoe the pressure will also be spread on the lenght of your foot, and so there will be much less pressure on the ground.

Why do horses wear saddle pads?

Because if they dont the sadelle will be to heavy and it will hurt the horse. The saddle doesn't get any lighter because of the saddle pad, but the pad cushions the weight of the saddle and absorbs shock and moisture, making it more comfortable for the horse.

What substance is the absorbent pad in a diaper made of?

Hope this helps: The absorbent pad is made of two essential elements: water-loving polymer and fibrous material. Microscopically the polymer molecules resemble long chains or ropes. Parts of the chemical ropes are made to interact with water molecules. When a big number of these polymer chains are cross linked they form a gel network that can be modified. The gel strength is like polymer and has the tendency to misshape. If the strength of the gel is too high, the polymer will not hold enough water. If the gel strength is too low, the polymer will misshape too easily and the distant particles in the pad will absorb the liquid too fast, forming gel that blocks the liquid from getting to the center pad particles.
