<p>The subject invention provides water-swellable polymer compositions having reduced dusting tendencies, i.e., reduced amounts of unassociated dust having a maximum diameter less than or equal to 10 microns and/or the tendency to generate reduced amounts of unassociated dust having a maximum diameter less than or equal to 10 microns upon attrition and a process for preparing such compositions. Hydrophobic dedusting agents are used to achieve the above while substantially maintaining or increasing the surface tension of an aqueous fluid in equilibrium with the polymer and air.</p> |
