Abstract:
A telecommunication cable includes a layer comprising wetted water-absorptive powder on the surface of a substrate element, thereby avoiding the use of adhesives to bind the dry superabsorbent powder. The water-absorptive powder may be adhered to the surface of the substrate element by a water-soluble adhesive material.
