Claims39
A composition comprising:
- (a) a superabsorbent polymer comprising at least one polytnaized monomer selected from the group consisting of a carboxylic acid, acrylamide, or derivatives thereof, and (b) a binding amount of a hydroxy-functionalized polyeher.
A process comprising contacting a substrate with (a) a superabsorbent polymer comprising at least one polymerized monomer selected from the group consisting of a carboxylic acid, acrylamide, or derivatives thereof, and (b) a binding amount of a hydroxy-functionalizd polyether.
A process for preparng an absorbent article comprising a superabsorbent polymer and cellulose-containing fluff, the process comprising contacting at least a portion of the fluff with a binding amount of a hydroxy-functionalized polyether and with a superabsorbent polymer, the superabsorbent polymer comprising at least one polymerized monomer selected from the group consisting of a carboxylic acid, acrylamide, or derivatives thereof;
- in such a manner that an absorbent article is formed.
