    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the gel-phase or surface secondary crosslinking of water-absorbent polymers, characterized in that the polymer is treated with a solution for surface secondary cross-linking, during or after treatment undergoes secondary cross-linking by temperature elevation and is then dried. Dissolved in an inert solvent the cross-linking agent contains a compound of formula (I), where R1 and R2 independently of each other are H, hydroxy, phenyl or C1-C6-alkyl, R3 is hydrogen, C1-C12-alkyl, C1-C12-alkenyl or C6-C12-aryl and R4 and R5 independently of each other are C1-C12-alkyl, C1C12-alkenyl, C6-C12-aryl, hydroxy, C1-C12-alkoxy or hydrogen. The invention also relates to water-absorbent polymers obtained according to the above method, and to their use in hygiene articles, packaging materials and nonwoven materials.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the surface secondary cross-linking of water-absorbent polymers, according to which the polymer is sprayed with a solution for surface secondary cross-linking. As cross-linking agent said solution contains phosphoric acid esters of the formula (1) or (2), where X is OH or NH2 and R is C1-C12 alkylene, or a mixture of such esters dissolved in an inert solvent. The moist product during or after spraying is subjected to secondary cross-linking and dried by raising the temperature to 50-250 ~C. The invention also relates to water-absorbent polymers obtainable in accordance with the above method and to their use in hygiene articles, packing materials and non-woven materials.
