Disclosed is a method for producing a water absorbent resin, by which a surface-crosslinked water absorbent resin having excellent physical properties can be efficiently obtained at low cost, while assuring high productivity. When the production scale is increased to a continuous production at 1 t/hr or more, the physical properties are improved and stabilized (for example, standard deviation of the physical properties is reduced) by a surface-crosslinking treatment, and the absorption against pressure (AAP) and liquid permeability (SFC) are further improved. Specifically disclosed is a method for producing a water absorbent resin, which is characterized in that the stirring shaft of the continuous mixing apparatus for the surface-crosslinking agent is heated during the mixing step of the surface-crosslinking agent or that the continuous mixing apparatus for the surface-crosslinking agent is operated at a pressure that is reduced relative to the ambient pressure and a gas flow is passed through the mixing apparatus during the mixing of the surface-crosslinking agent so that the gas flow in the mixing apparatus is 40° C. or more (when defined with respect to the gas temperature at the exit).

There are provided an adhesion promoting process using a comparatively small amount of an adhesion promoting gas for processing a workpiece, an adhesion promoting device for carrying out the adhesion promoting process, a coating and developing system including the adhesion promoting device, and a storage medium storing a program specifying a set of instructions for carrying out the adhesion promoting process.The adhesion promoting process includes the steps of: placing a workpiece on a support table disposed in a processing space defined by a processing vessel; adjusting the temperature of the workpiece placed on the support table to a first temperature at which an adhesion promoting gas does not condense on the workpiece in dew drops; supplying the adhesion promoting gas to the temperature-controlled workpiece to make a surface of the workpiece hydrophobic through the interaction of molecules contained in the adhesion promoting gas and the surface of the workpiece; and adjusting the temperature of the workpiece to a second temperature higher than the first temperature to supply thermal energy to excessive molecules remaining on the surface of the workpiece and evacuating the processing space to remove the excessive molecules from the surface of the workpiece.

A coating apparatus includes a liquid film forming mechanism configured to form a liquid film of a process liquid for preventing a contaminant derived from a coating liquid from being deposited or left on a back side peripheral portion of a substrate. The liquid film forming mechanism includes a counter face portion facing the back side peripheral portion of the substrate and a process liquid supply portion for supplying the process liquid onto the counter face portion. The coating apparatus further includes a posture regulating mechanism disposed around the substrate holding member and configured to damp a vertical wobble of the peripheral portion of the substrate being rotated. The posture regulating mechanism includes delivery holes arrayed in a rotational direction of the substrate and configured to deliver a gas onto a back side region of the substrate on an inner side of the peripheral portion.

A heating apparatus is configured to include a hot plate at which a substrate is placed, a top plate opposed to the substrate, a gas discharging part provided on one end side of the hot plate for discharging gas between the hot plate and the top plate, an exhaust part provided to be opposed to the gas discharging part with the hot plate interposed therebetween, and a heating part independently heating a first region and a second region of the substrate. A heating process is performed with good within-wafer uniformity by forming an unidirectional flow to heat the first region and the second region at different temperatures.

In a template treatment of forming a film of a release agent on a treatment surface of a template, the treatment surface of the template is first cleaned. Thereafter, in a coating unit, the release agent is applied to the treatment surface of the template. The release agent on the template is then dried. Then, alcohol is applied to the release agent on the template to make the release agent adhere to the treatment surface of the template and to remove an unreacted portion of the release agent. Thereafter, the alcohol on the template is dried and removed. In this manner, a film of the release agent is formed in a predetermined film thickness on the treatment surface of the template.
