## Abstract We studied an amorphous polymer superabsorbent, able to absorb until 1000 times its weight of water. It is consisted of macromolecular chains, dependent between them by chemical bonds. The swelling of the product in the presence of water gives rise to a polyelectrolytic gel. The chemica

## Abstract Novel amphoteric superabsorbent polymers (SAPs) based on carboxymethyl cellulose, acrylic acid, acrylamide, and [2โ(methylacryloyloxy)ethyl]trimethylammonium chloride were prepared by inverse suspension copolymerization. The SAPs were characterized by Fourier transforms infrared spectro
We have been interested in the synthesis of hydrogels with fast swelling kinetics and superabsorbent properties. To increase the water absorption rate, interconnected pores were introduced to the hydrogels. Since the pore size in the dried hydrogels is in the order of hundreds of micrometers, these
