The present invention is directed to ion-sensitive, water-dispersible polymers. The present invention is also directed to a method of making ion-sensitive, water-dispersible polymers and their applicability as binder compositions. The present invention is further directed to fiber-containing fabrics and webs comprising ion-sensitive, water-dispersible binder compositions and their applicability in water-dispersible personal care products. La présente invention concerne des polymères dispersables dans l'eau et sensibles aux ions. Elle concerne également un procédé de préparation de polymères dispersables dans l'eau et sensibles aux ions, ainsi que leur applicabilité en tant que compositions liantes. L'invention se rapporte en outre à des tissus et des voiles fibreux comprenant ces compositions liantes dispersables dans l'eau et sensibles aux ions, ainsi qu'à leur applicabilité dans des produits dispersables dans l'eau destinés aux soins personnels.
