Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0166056A1] A process of making an absorbent structure comprising the steps of providing absorbent polymer particles, mixing said absorbent polymer particles with a Permeability Maintenance Agent to form a blend, and further providing a carrier selected such as fibers, porous substrates like fibrous webs or foams. Further, the process includes a means for combining said absorbent polymer particle/Permeability Maintenance Agent blend with said carrier means, wherein the absorbent polymer particle/Permeability Maintenance Agent blend is combined with the carrier to form an absorbent structure, whereby a mechanical stress is exerted on said absorbent polymer particle/Permeability Maintenance Agent blend. The process includes a step for mixing the absorbent polymer particles with said Permeability Maintenance Agent prior to the combining step, whereby the SFC value of the absorbent polymer particle/Permeability Maintenance Agent blend is reduced less than that of the absorbent polymer particles without Permeability Maintenance Agent, upon being subjected to said mechanical stress.
