  • Patent number: 4647617
    Abstract: A water absorbent crosslinked polymer having at least 70% by weight of acrylic acid monomeric units, 60 to 90% of the carboxyl groups of which are in the form of an alkali metal salt, produced by a method in which a mixture comprised of acrylic acid, 60 to 90% of the carboxyl groups of which are in the form of an alkali metal salt, and a fibrous cellulosic material is heated in the presence of a radical initiator. The polymerization temperature can be effectively controlled by smooth evaporation of water. The cross-linked polymer can absorb such a large amount of water as several hundred times the weight of the polymer in an excellent absorption rate, and finds applications as, for example, a disposable diaper and a sanitary napkin.
