Water absorbent fiber web

摘要

A fibrous web having an enhanced capacity for water absorption is produced by impregnating an absorbent fabric with a polymer or copolymer capable of forming by cross-linking an absorbent polymer or copolymer and subsequently heating the treated fabric effecting cross-linking of the polymer to form an absorbent polymer. The product may comprise a non-woven fibrous web or mat having a water-insoluble binder on one surface and a cross-linked hyrophilic polymer or copolymer on its opposite surface.
