Absorbent foam materials for aqueous fluids obtained from high internal phase emulsions having very high water ratios oil.

Collapsed ABSORBENTES SPARKLING MATERIAL low density THAT AFTER CONTACTING aqueous fluids, particularly urine, can expand and absorb these fluids. These foams sparsely Typically have an expanded thickness from about 6 to about 10 times the thickness of foams in its collapsed state. THESE low density foams are prepared by emulsion polymerization HIGH PHASE INTERNAL (HIPE), where the ratio between volume and weight Aqueous Phase FACING THE PHASE OLEOSA IS IN ranges from about 55: 1 about 100: 1.
