QUATERNIZED CELLULAR POLYMERS FROM AMINE TERMINATED POLY(AMINOETHERS) AND POLYFUNCTIONAL EPOXIDES

摘要

Quaternized Cellular Polymers From Amine Terminated Poly(Aminoethers) and Polyfunctional Epoxides An absorbent cellular polymeric material is provided which exhibits enhanced water retentivity and may also exhibit enhanced compressibility. Such a material is provided by foaming the reaction product of a poly(aminoether) and an epoxy resin and quaternizing the resulting reaction product with, for example, an acid. The foam is particularly usable in products for absorbing body fluids.
