Among other things, the present disclosure provides technologies useful as super absorbent polymers.

Described is an at least partly continuous process for making polyurethane foam layers that are suitable for medical applications, in particular in wound dressings, at a high throughput rate. The described process includes a step of accelerated curing of the polyurethane foam performed at a stage of the overall curing process at which the risk of a run-away reaction is minimized.

Disclosed herein is a hydrogel wound dressing produced by the steps of a) providing an hydrophobic polyol which has six hydroxyl groups, b) providing an hydrophilic diisocyanate obtained by reacting a second diisocyanate with a hydrophilic polyether diol, c) reacting the hydrophobic polyol with the hydrophilic diisocyanate to obtain a first prepolymer which includes 3 to 6 isocyanate groups, d) partially crosslinking the first prepolymer using a crosslinking agent to obtain a second prepolymer, and e) subjecting the second prepolymer to an end-capping reaction with a silane-containing compound to obtain the hydrogel wound dressing.
