FIELD: medicine. n SUBSTANCE: the present innovation deals with liquid-absorbing polymeric foam with open cells with properties that make it useful to be applied as an absorbing structure in absorbing products, such as swaddling cloths, diapers, hygienic panty shields, preventive means applied at incontinence of urine, wound bandages, protective coverings for patients' beds, etc. Moreover, the mentioned foam has got the rate of absorption at moisturizing corresponding to, at least, 0.4 ml/sec for round sample of 50 mm diameter, capacity for liquid distribution at inclination of 30° corresponding to, at least, 15 g/g, and capacity to liquid accumulation corresponding to, at least, 9% detected due to CRC (centrifuge retention capacity), moreover, in all cases artificial urine is being analytical liquid. It is, also, described an absorbing structure that contains the above-mentioned foam. The latter has got the capacity to absorb liquid quickly, distribute it in the structure and accumulate it, as well. n EFFECT: higher efficiency of application. n 7 cl, 4 dwg, 3 ex, 1 tbl |
