Abstract
The invention relates to an article for oxygen absorption that is a container containing a water-soluble on source, a water activated oxygen scavenger, and a rupturable canister of hydrated polymer. The hydrated polymer comprises a superabsorbent polymer. The water-soluble on source comprises a salt. The invention in another embodiment relates to a method for providing timed oxygen absorption using the article as above with rupturing of the canister to release the water carrying superabsorbent such that it will contact the oxygen scavenger and on source thereby leading to activating the oxygen scavenger.
