    Abstract: An apparatus for production of pulverulent polymers having a reactor for droplet polymerization with an apparatus for dropletization of a monomer solution for the preparation of the polymer. The apparatus for dropletization has holes through which the monomer solution is introduced, an addition point for a gas above the apparatus for dropletization, at least one gas withdrawal point at the periphery of the reactor and a fluidized bed, wherein at least one of the following is fulfilled: an apparatus for increasing turbulence in the gas flow is disposed in the region of the apparatus for dropletization of the monomer solution, an apparatus for increasing turbulence in the gas flow is disposed in the region of the addition point for the gas, the addition point for gas is configured such that elevated turbulence is generated. A process for producing pulverulent polymers, in which an increase in flow turbulence in the gas flow in the region of the apparatus for dropletization also is disclosed.

    Abstract: A method of measuring indices in superabsorbents, by initially charging excess aqueous solution or dispersion, swelling the superabsorbent in the initially charged aqueous solution or dispersion while stirring, dissolving or dispersing a component A in the aqueous solution or dispersion, measuring the enrichment of component A in the aqueous solution or dispersion during the swelling of the superabsorbent, using the enrichment of component A in the aqueous solution or dispersion to measure the time-dependent swelling characteristics and using these to determine the swelling constant k or the characteristic swell time τ, the index being dependent on the permeability of the superabsorbent, and ascertaining the index by means of a correlation measured beforehand between swelling constant k and index or characteristic swell time τ and index.

    Abstract: In a method of measuring parameters of superabsorbents, the absorption capacity of superabsorbents is determined under pressure, by reducing the pressure applied to a sample of the superabsorbent stepwise and determining the absorption capacity at each pressure. In addition, the rise in absorption capacity after a reduction in pressure is measured as a function of time and this is used to calculate the swelling constant k or the characteristic swelling time τ. Swelling constant or characteristic swelling time or the magnitude of the difference in absorption capacity at two different pressures are used to determine further parameters of the superabsorbent.
