METHOD FOR THE SECONDARY CROSSLINKING OF HYDROGELS WITH BICYCLIC AMIDE ACETALS

摘要

A process for the post crosslinking of water absorbing polymers comprises treatment with a bicyclic amideacetal crosslinking agent with simultaneous or subsequent heating. A process for the post crosslinking of water absorbing polymers comprises treatment with a bicyclic amideacetal crosslinking agent (I) of formula (I) with simultaneous or subsequent heating.
