摘要:
A surface crosslinking treatment method of a water-absorbing resin powder is disclosed that can overcome various problems in production encountered in the production of surface crosslinked water-absorbing resin powders on an industrial scale and can produce a water-absorbing resin powder having excellent physical properties without causing deterioration in physical properties of resin. The surface crosslinking treatment method of a water-absorbing resin powder includes adding a surface crosslinking agent to a water-absorbing resin powder and heat treating the mixture, wherein (1) the water-absorbing resin powder after the heat treatment is stirred and cooled under an air flow; (2) the water-absorbing resin powder after the heat treatment is cooled under an air flow, and at the same time, at least a part of fine particles of the water-absorbing resin powder and/or the residual crosslinking agent is removed by the air flow; or (3) the water-absorbing resin powder after the heat treatment is cooled and simultaneously granulated, and preferably an aqueous solution is added to the water-absorbing resin powder at a temperature of 40-100° C. during the cooling treatment.

A method for the surface treatment of an absorbent resin is proposed which notably improves the absorption capacity of the absorbent resin under pressure without impairing safety and hydroscopic flowability. The method comprises adding an organic carboxylic ester of a polyhydric alcohol to the absorbent resin and then heat-treating the resultant mixture.

A hydrophilic resin is produced by a method which comprises copolymerizing a hydrophilic unsaturated monomer with 0.001 to 50 mol %, based on the amount of said monomer, of a first cross-linking agent possessing a structural unit represented by the general formula (I): ##STR1## wherein n represents an integer of at least 1, and then heat-treating the product of the copolymerization. An absorbent resin is produced by a method which comprises treating the hydrophilic resin obtained as described above, in the surface region of the resin, in the presence of a third cross-linking agent capable of reacting with the functional group of the hydrophilic resin.The absorbent ratio of the absorbent resin with respect to physiological saline solution is able to be increased to at least 20 g/g as compared to its original level by being heat-treated at a temperature of 150.degree. C. for 30 minutes.
