The method of forming the absorbent fibrous web composite includes an initial step of forming a fibrous web from hydrophilic fibers and, optionally, thermoplastic fibers. Next, the superabsorbent polymer on or in the fibrous web is applied by applying at least one superabsorbent polymer precursor composition to the fibrous web by a non-contact process and fully performing the polymerization reaction (s) on or in the web. Form completely in place.n n n Fibrous web, absorbent composite, absorbent fiber, superabsorbent polymer, thermoplastic fiber |
