Problems to be Solved by the Invention In the method of dispersing superabsorbent resin powder onto a substrate, uniformity and bonding between the resin and the substrate are insufficient, resulting in difficulties such as resin falling off. Also, in the case of fixation by steaming and pressing, the resin is released from the base material due to slight water absorption.

When mechanical strength is required for the water-swollen coating film itself,
Water-insoluble flexible polymers such as rubber are used. In this case, significant restrictions on the water absorption capacity of the resin, particularly on the water absorption rate, are unavoidable. On the other hand, when using a water-soluble binder, a water-based solvent cannot be used due to the nature of the resin, so the binder resin and solvent are extremely limited.

The film absorbs water and takes on a gel-like appearance, but it does not feel sticky.
The behavior similar to that of super absorbent resins is noteworthy. PEO forms an aggregate with polyacrylic acid and is considered to have a high affinity with polyacrylic acid that has been partially neutralized with an alkali metal salt.

The following remarkable facts were discovered by observing the behavior of a super absorbent resin powder film containing PEO as a binder upon water absorption. P

The dispersion stability of the composition of the present invention depends on the particle size of the resin powder and the solution viscosity. Solution viscosity depends on the molecular weight and concentration of PEO. Fine particles with a particle size of 100 μm or less are preferred from the viewpoint of dispersion stability and coating film smoothness. It should also be noted that if the particle size is less than 10 μm, the water absorption performance of the resin will be impaired. By using high molecular weight PEO, a suitable viscosity for coating can be obtained even at a low concentration of 1% or less. Therefore, the composition ratio of super absorbent resin/PEO can be adjusted freely.

It is also possible to make a water-absorbing diilm by casting the composition of the present invention on a flat plate and volatilizing the solvent. In that case, the appropriate ratio of PEO to 100 parts of resin powder is 10 to 30 parts. .
