Patent ID: 7935860

Claim:
An absorbent article comprising an absorbent core; wherein the absorbent core includes a superabsorbent polymer composition comprising a superabsorbent polymer and a surface additive; wherein the superabsorbent polymer comprises: a) from about 55% to about 99.9% by weight of a polymerizable unsaturated acid-group-containing-monomer based on the superabsorbent polymer; and b) from about 0.001% to about 5% by weight of internal crosslinking agent based on the polymerizable unsaturated acid-group-containing-monomer; wherein the superabsorbent polymer has a degree of neutralization of greater than about 25%; wherein elements a) and b) have been polymerized and prepared into superabsorbent polymer particles; and wherein the surface additive comprises: i) from about 0.001% to about 5% by weight of surface crosslinking agent based on the superabsorbent polymer composition; ii) from about 0.01% to about 2% by weight of a water-insoluble inorganic metal compound based on the superabsorbent polymer composition; and iii) from 0% to about 5% by weight of a polymeric coating based on the superabsorbent polymer composition.
