An absorbent material especially for use in the recovery of spilled oil is disclosed, comprising a polymeric carbohydrate substrate e.g. cellulose, paper having at least one fatty acid, at least one water soluble ion to form an ammonium ion complex and an ammonium ion donor, the absorbent material further comprising a non-toxic mineral e.g. gypsum dispersed within the substrate. A process for manufacturing such a material is also disclosed.
