The present invention relates to a process for producing surface-postcrosslinked water-absorbent polymer particles by coating of water-absorbent polymer particles having a content of residual monomers in the range from 0.03 to 15% by weight with at least one surface-postcrosslinker and thermal surface-postcrosslinking at temperatures in the range from 100 to 180° C.

A method of manufacturing a flexible intrinsically antimicrobial absorbent porosic composite controlling for an effective pore size using removable pore-forming substances and physically incorporated, non-leaching antimicrobials. A flexible intrinsically antimicrobial absorbent porosic composite controlled for an effective pore size composited physically incorporated, high-surface area, non-leaching antimicrobials, optionally in which the physically incorporated non-leaching antimicrobial exposes nanopillars on its surface to enhance antimicrobial activity. A kit that enhances the effectiveness of the intrinsically antimicrobial absorbent porosic composite by storing the composite within an antimicrobial container.

Provided is a superabsorbent structure based on a covalently crosslinked copolymer having a microstructure of a HIPE, and characterized by hydrophobic and hydrophilic segments of at least five residues; the unique chemical and structural properties of the copolymer afford a polymeric superabsorbent structure that is capable of swelling in polar as well as apolar media. Also provided are processes of manufacturing the superabsorbent structure, and uses thereof.

The method for preparing a super absorbent polymer according to the present disclosure has a feature that it is possible to reduce the generation of a fine powder during production of the super absorbent polymer while maintaining excellent physical properties of the super absorbent polymer, including centrifuge retention capacity (CRC) and vortex removal time.

The present invention relates to superabsorbent polymer and a method for preparing the same. The present invention can provide a superabsorbent polymer in which a hydrophobic material having an HLB of 0-6 and a surface cross-linking agent are mixed into a base resin prepared in the presence of water dispersible silica, thereby having improved rewetting characteristics and permeability through surface-modification of the base resin.

A method of preparing a superabsorbent polymer sheet by polymerization of monomers in the presence of an encapsulated foaming agent and an inorganic foaming agent is provided. According to the method of preparing the superabsorbent polymer sheet of the present invention, a porous and flexible superabsorbent polymer sheet may be prepared.

The present invention relates to a super absorbent polymer. The super absorbent polymer exhibits excellent initial absorption capacity, and thus can provide a sanitary material such as a diaper or a sanitary napkin which can quickly absorb body fluids and impart a dry and soft touch feeling.

Provided is a method of preparing a superabsorbent polymer. More specifically, provided is a method of preparing a superabsorbent polymer capable of exhibiting improved initial absorbency and a rapid absorption rate by polymerizing monomers having acidic groups, of which part is neutralized with a basic material including potassium hydroxide, in the presence of an encapsulated foaming agent.

An adhesive free self-fusing material being either of open or closed cell polymer (silicone) based material that can be used to create a permanent elastic band for compression and support dressings. The proprietary polymer material upon contact with itself, initiates a room temperature reaction of self-vulcanization with the contact surfaces of itself. This eliminates the need for any adhesives which some patients experience negative reactions. In an example embodiment, the material comprises Vinyl stopped polydimethyl siloxane, amorphous silica, and dimethylpolysiloxane.

The present invention relates to a method for a superabsorbent polymer. The preparation method controls the time from the addition of a foaming agent to the initiation of a polymerization reaction, thereby forming an appropriate pore structure in a superabsorbent polymer. The superabsorbent polymer produced through the preparation method can exhibit a remarkably improved absorption rate while exhibiting excellent absorption performance.
