Water-absorbent polymer composite comprising two or more fibers, and composition thereof
Disclosed is a water-absorbent polymer composite and composition thereof comprising a water-absorbent polymer particle and two or more fibers, wherein said polymer particle has a substantially spherical shape, at least one of said two or more fibers is partially wrapped in the polymer particle and partially exposed to outside the particle, and at least one of said two or more fibers is unwrapped in the polymer particle and partially adhered to a surface of the polymer particle. This water-absorbent polymer composite is characterized in that the fibers are stably fixed to the water-absorbent polymer not only in dry but also in wet through water absorption for swelling, the water-absorbent polymer content can be enlarged relative to the fibers, the polymer can be uniformly fixed to the fibers, the composite is flexible and can be thinned, opened and mixed with any other material uniformly.
