A polymeric foam material which is capable of absorbing blood and fluids based blood cloth catamenia comprising an absorbent member made from the foam material a artículoabsorbente comprising said foam material and a process for preparing said material l foam

Foams capable of absorbing blood and blood-based fluids, especially menses. These absorbent foams have capillary desorption high pressures used in catamenials, despite this, have lasuficiente opening to permit movement librede insoluble components in blood based fluids such as menses. These absorbent foams are prepared from emulsions polymerizing high faseinterna (HIPEs) where the relationship between the weight and volume of the water phase and the oil phase is within the entrealrededor range 20: 1 to about 125: 1. These foams are particularly useful as absorbent members for catamenial Cloths. The deespuma structure has the capacity of artificial menstrual fluid mechar the (AMF) vertically to a height of 5 cm in less than 40, preferably less of20 minutes; an area of ​​capillary surface area within the range de0,0080 to 0.040, preferably from 0.010 to 0.030, more preferably from 0.026 0,014hasta m2 / cm3; a resistance to compression deflection of from about 5 to 75%, preferably from 10 to 65%, maspreferiblemente desde15 to 60%, when measured under a pressure of 5.1 kPa at 31 ° C after 15 minutes, a free absorbent capacity entrealrededor 20 to about 125 g / g, less than 2% preferably less than 0.05% residual hydratable salts. Cloth absorbent catamenial comprising unmiembro made with the foam material, an absorbent article said foam material and a process for making foam material I comprising dedicho.
