The present invention relates to superabsorbent polymer compositions. The superabsorbent polymer compositions of the present invention can exhibit significantly improved antimicrobial and deodorant properties without degrading superabsorbent polymer properties such as centrifuge retention capacity, pressurized absorbency, and transmission , and therefore, can be usefully applied to sanitary products such as diapers and the like. The superabsorbent polymer composition comprises: superabsorbent polymer particles comprising a crosslinked polymer of a water-soluble ethylenically unsaturated monomer comprising an acid group and at least A portion of the acid groups are neutralized; and a particulate antimicrobial agent comprising a quaternary ammonium salt of a silane-based compound. |
