摘要

An absorption agent and swelling agent for water aq. solns. and body liquids consists of a mixt. of at least 2 components A and B, A is at least one water swellable synthetic polymer or copolymer crosslinked with a multi-functional cpd. B is at least one polysaccharide chosen from galactomannan, polygalactomannan or galactomannan derivs. or their mixts. with other natural or synthetic polymers which are flowable powders or fibre materials at normal temps. and which have only limited solubility in water or are insol.
