Absorbent binder composition and method of making it

摘要

An absorbent binder composition is provided which is capable of crosslinking after application to a substrate, in the absence of radiation, at a temperature of about 120° C. or less. The absorbent binder composition includes about 15 to about 99.8% by mass monoethylenically unsaturated polymer units, about 0.1 to about 20% by mass polyacrylate ester units having an alkoxysilane functionality, and about 0.1 to about 75% by mass of polymer units selected from polyolefin glycols and polyolefin oxides. The absorbent binder composition can be prepared using a template polymerization process, with the preformed polyolefin glycol or polyolefin oxide serving as a template polymer.
