Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cationic polymer more particularly a water absorbent polymer of the type commonly referred to as a "superabsorbent".
  • superabsorbents are typically slightly cross-linked hydrophillic polymers.
  • the polymers may differ in their chemical nature but they share the property of being capable of absorbing and retaining even under moderate pressure amounts of aqueous fluids equivalent to many times their own weight.
  • superabsorbents can typically absorb up to 100 times their own weight or even more of distilled water.
  • Superabsorbents have been suggested for use in many different industrial applications where advantage can be taken of their water absorbing and/or retaining properties and examples include agriculture, the building industry, the production of alkaline batteries and filters.
  • the primary field of application for superabsorbents is in the production of hygienic and/or sanitary products such as disposable sanitary napkins and disposable diapers either for children or for incontinent adults.
  • superabsorbents are used, generally in combination with cellulose fibres, e.g. cellulose fluff, to absorb body fluids such as menses or urine.
  • the absorbent capacity of superabsorbents for body fluids is dramatically lower than for deionised water. It is generally believed that this effect results from the electrolyte content of body fluids and the effect is often referred to as "salt poisoning".
  • the water absorption and water retention characteristics of superabsorbents are due to the presence in the polymer structure of ionisable functional groups.
  • These groups may be carboxyl groups, a high proportion of which are in the salt form when the polymer is dry but which undergo dissociation and solvation upon contact with water.
  • the polymer chain will have a series of functional groups attached to it which groups have the same electric charge and thus repel one another. This leads to expansion of the polymer structure which, in turn, permits further absorption of water molecules although this expansion is subject to the constraints provided by the cross-links in the polymer structure which must be sufficient to prevent dissolution of the polymer.
  • a cationic superabsorbent based on a polysaccharide such as cellulose will have polysaccharide hydroxyl groups reacted with a reagent (a derivatising reagent) which converts these hydroxyl groups into a cationic group, e.g. a quaternary ammonium group.
  • a reagent a derivatising reagent
  • the product should be based on fibrous cellulose since this can be combined and processed more easily with cellulose fluff which also has a fibrous character.
  • WO 92/19652 relates to a fibrous cationic polysaccharide which can be obtained by reacting fibrous polysaccharides such as cellulose with an excess of quaternary ammonium compounds containing at least one group capable of reacting with the polysaccharide hydroxyl groups. Whilst the product of WO 92/19652 shows useful properties as a superabsorbent there is a limit to the absorption properties which can be achieved.
  • the absorption of water by a superabsorbent involves the functional groups attached to the polymer chain and, in principle, the absorption capacity depends on the ratio of functional groups to the remainder of the polymer, i.e. the more functional groups that are introduced the greater the repulsion between the polymer chains and the greater the potential for water absorption.
  • the absorption capacity depends on the ratio of functional groups to the remainder of the polymer, i.e. the more functional groups that are introduced the greater the repulsion between the polymer chains and the greater the potential for water absorption.
  • derivatisation of cellulose in particular introduction of hydrophillic groups, tends to increase solubility in water. Accordingly attempts to increase water absorption of the product of WO 92/19652 by increasing the ds would be likely to lead to a water soluble polymer rather than a superabsorbent which, by definition, must remain insoluble in water.
  • the fibrous form of the material means that it is difficult for the derivatising agent to gain access to polysaccharide hydroxyl groups without destroying the structural backbone of the material.
  • ds degree of substitution
  • Activation can take the form, for example, of application of pressure to burst the fibres open and expose more potential reaction sites, or use of a chemical activation agent such as zinc chloride.
  • Example 6 of WO 92/19652 achieves a ds of 1.10 but only by using activation with zinc chloride and the product would have been largely soluble.
  • Processes are known for the cross-linking of cellulose using cross-linking agents such as formaldehyde, epichlorohydrin, diepoxides, dicarboxylic acids, dialdehydes and diisocyanates to obtain highly water insoluble products.
  • cross-linking agents such as formaldehyde, epichlorohydrin, diepoxides, dicarboxylic acids, dialdehydes and diisocyanates.
  • cross-linking agents such as formaldehyde, epichlorohydrin, diepoxides, dicarboxylic acids, dialdehydes and diisocyanates
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a superabsorbent polymer based on a polysaccharide, preferably a fibrous polysaccharide, more preferably fibrous cellulose which has improved superabsorbent properties. It has now surprisingly been found that such a product can be produced by combining derivatisation of the polysaccharide with a appropriate degree of cross-linking to maintain water insolubility. The improvement in superabsorbent properties brought about by an increased number of functional groups (higher ds) more than outweighs any effect that the cross- linking agent has on super-absorbent properties and the product has improved superabsorbent properties, for example as compared to products of the type disclosed in WO 92/19652. Thus use of a cross-linking agent makes it possible to control the gel strength of the product and makes it easier to tailor the characteristics of the product to those which are required.
  • the present invention provides a cationic polysaccharide, preferably a fibrous cationic polysaccharide, having superabsorbent characteristics, the polysaccharide being substituted by quaternary ammonium groups and having a ds of at least 0.5, preferably 0.5 to 2.5, and the polysaccharide being cross-linked to a sufficient extent that it remains insoluble in water.
  • the polysaccharide according to the present invention is preferably based on cellulose, more preferably fibrous cellulose, although the invention can also be applied to other polysaccharides such as starch and natural products based on saccharide units.
  • the present invention can be applied to fibrous cellulose derived by any chemical and/or mechanical treatment, for example cellulose fibres obtained from wood pulp purified by the sulphate process or the bisulphite process, cellulose fibres obtained from wood pulp by thermomechanical or mechanical treatment, beet cellulose, regenerated cellulose or cotton linters.
  • the cellulose fibres are obtained from wood pulp purified by the sulphate process or as cellulose "fluff" derived from mechanical treatment or wood pulp and are of the type generally used for the preparation of absorbent pads in disposable products, for example sanitary napkins and towels and diapers.
  • the invention may also be applied to cellulose powders.
  • the polysaccharide according to the invention can be prepared by a process which involves derivatising a polysaccharide, preferably a fibrous polysaccharide, with quaternary ammonium groups and cross-linking with a suitable cross-linking agent.
  • the derivatising and cross-linking can generally be carried out under similar conditions so that it is possible to carry out both reactions in a single stage. However, the reactions may become competitive so that it is preferred to carry out the derivatising reaction as a first stage, followed by cross-linking as a separate second stage. This two stage approach allows greater control of the reaction in terms of ds, degree of cross-linking, freedom from undesired secondary products, etc.
