PHOTOPOLYMERIZED HYDROPHILIC FILMSOR FIBERS OF ACRYLIC ACID AND POLYFUNCTIONAL CROSS-LINKING AGENTS

摘要

Highly water absorbent films and fibers are prepared by photopolymerizing an alkaline metal salt of acrylic acid, a polyfunctional cross-linking agent and a photoinitiator. The resulting interpolymers are particularly useful in the preparation of highly absorbent personal hygiene and care products.
