Abstract PCT No. PCT/FR86/00257 Sec. 371 Date Mar. 23, 1987 Sec. 102(e) Date Mar. 23, 1987 PCT Filed Jul. 22, 1986 PCT Pub. No. WO87/00438 PCT Pub. Date Jan. 29, 1987.The process applies to polymers obtained by a water-in-oil process, that is to say, a reverse emulsion process or a suspension process in reversible phase. The process of fixation of this type of polymer in or on a porous support is characterized in that it comprises the impregnation of the porous support with said reverse suspension or emulsion resulting from the polymerization reaction and the removal of solvent from the support. By said process, complexes are obtained which present improved absorption properties and offer a better holding of the product to the support.
A process for the deposition and fixation of insoluble hydrophilic polymers in or on a porous support, said polymers being obtained according to a "water-in-oil" reverse emulsion or suspension process comprising impregnating the porous support with said reverse emulsion in the liquid state as it is recovered from the polymerization reaction, and thereafter removing the suspending solvent from the support.

60 words
A process for the deposition and fixation of insoluble hydrophilic polymers in or on a porous support, said polymers being obtained according to a "water-in-oil" reverse emulsion or suspension process comprising impregnating the porous support with said reverse emulsion in the liquid state as it is recovered from the polymerization reaction, and thereafter removing the suspending solvent from the support.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
30 words
A process according to claim 1, wherein the reverse emulsion or suspension is destabilized during the impregnation in order to facilitate the deposition of the polymer on the porous support.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
20 words
A process according to claim 2, wherein the reverse emulsion or suspension is destabilized by addition of water during impregnation.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
27 words
A process according to claim 3, wherein the destabilizing water is added by impregnation of the porous support before its impregnation with the reverse emulsion or suspension.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
21 words
A process according to claim 1, wherein the reverse emulsion or suspension includes between 10% and 30% of a hydrophilic polymer.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
37 words
A process according to claim 1, wherein the porous support is a non-woven material, paper, a pad of bonded or unbonded cellulose and/or synthetic fibers, characterized in that the porosity of said support is greater than 0.5.
