The super absorbent polymer comprises: a base polymer powder including a first crosslinked polymer of a water-soluble ethylenically unsaturated monomer having at least partially neutralized acidic groups; and a surface crosslinked layer formed on the base polymer powder and including a second crosslinked polymer in which the first crosslinked polymer is further crosslinked via a surface crosslinking agent, wherein the super absorbent polymer has: a fixed height absorption (FHA) of 22.5 g/g to 29 g/g, a saline flow conductivity (SFC) of 35 (.Math.10.sup.−7 cm.sup.3.Math.s/g) or more, and T-20 of 180 seconds or less.

This disclosure relates to a multilayer structure containing: a substrate; a coupling layer deposited on the substrate; and a dielectric layer deposited on the coupling layer, wherein shear strength is increased by a factor of at least about 2 in the presence of the coupling layer compared to a multilayer in the absence of the coupling layer.

The present disclosure is directed to articles that include one or more coated fiber(s) (i.e., fiber(s) with a cured coating disposed thereon), where the coating includes a matrix of crosslinked polymers and optionally a colorant (e.g., pigment particles or dye or both). The cured coating is a product of crosslinking a coating composition including uncrosslinked polymers (e.g., a dispersion of uncrosslinked polymers in a carrier, wherein the uncrosslinked polymers are crosslinked to form the matrix of crosslinked polymers). The present disclosure is also directed to articles including the coated fibers, methods of forming the coated fibers and articles, and methods of making articles including the coated fibers.

In an additive for an epoxy adhesive and an epoxy adhesive composition for construction including same, the additive for an epoxy adhesive is formed by atomic transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of a polyacrylate of which one terminal is halogenated, as an arm-polymer, and a diacrylate-based compound or a dimethacrylate-based compound, as a cross-linker, and comprises a star polymer of a star-shape having a core/shell structure including a core formed by the polymerization of the cross-linker and a shell formed by a portion of the arm-polymer.

The present disclosure is directed to articles that include a cured coating that includes a matrix of crosslinked polymers and optionally a colorant (e.g., pigment particles or dye or both). The cured coating can include a matrix of crosslinked polymers. The cured coating is a product of crosslinking a coating composition comprising uncrosslinked polymers (e.g., a dispersion of uncrosslinked polymers in a carrier to form the matrix of crosslinked polymers), wherein the uncrosslinked polymers are crosslinked to form the matrix of crosslinked polymers. The matrix of crosslinked polymers can be elastomeric. The present disclosure is also directed to articles including these bladders, methods of forming these bladders, and methods of making articles including these bladders, where the bladders include the cured coating.
