  We obtain the universal R-matrix of the non-standard quantum group associated
to the Alexander-Conway knot polynomial. We show further that this non-standard
quantum group is related to the super-quantum group $U_qgl(1|1)$ by a general
process of superization, which we describe. We also study a twisted variant of
this non-standard quantum group and obtain, as a result, a twisted version of
$U_qgl(1|1)$ as a $q$-supersymmetry of the exterior differential calculus of
any quantum plane of Hecke type, acting by mixing the bosonic $x_i$
co-ordinates and the forms $d x_i$.
