Abstract:
A superabsorbent having surfaces complexed with polyvalent metal ions and which contains at least one phosphonic acid derivative, and the molar ratio between polyvalent metal and phosphonic acid derivative is at most 1.2/n, where n is the number of phosphonic acid groups in the phosphonic acid derivative. The superabsorbent exhibits good stability against discoloration and a surprisingly low caking tendency without any significant impairment of its performance properties.
