摘要:
Provided is a process for producing a water-absorbing resin powder which contains a given amount of water added thereto, has a low dust content, and has high material properties. When a water-absorbing resin powder which has undergone surface crosslinking is produced on an industrial scale, various problems concerning production are eliminated and a long-term stable operation is possible without causing a deterioration in the material properties of the resin. Even when the process is continued over a long period, the material properties are stabilized (decrease in standard deviation) or improved (improvement in AAP). The process for producing a water-absorbing resin comprises, in the following order, a first classification step for classifying a water-absorbing resin, a surface crosslinking step after the classification, a water addition step for adding water to the water-absorbing resin powder after or during the surface crosslinking, a second classification step, and a conveying step.
摘要:
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 on a huge scale (for example, 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 continuously producing a polyacrylic acid (salt)-type water absorbent resin powder, which comprises: a step of preparing an aqueous monomer solution using an acrylic acid (salt); a step of polymerizing the aqueous monomer solution; a shredding step of a hydrous gel-like crosslinked polymer during or after the polymerization; a step of drying the thus-obtained particulate hydrous gel-like crosslinked polymer; a step of crushing and classifying the dried product; a step of heating and surface-crosslinking after the classification; and a step of cooling after the surface-crosslinking. In the method for producing a polyacrylic acid (salt)-type water absorbent resin, the internal area of the cooling device that is used in the cooling step is 0.25-0.95 times the internal area of the heating device that is used in the surface-crosslinking step.
摘要:
Reversed phase suspension polymerization is allowed while controlling content of minor components in monomer, particularly controlling a content of acetic acid and propionic acid being not higher than 500 ppm, controlling a content of acrylic acid dimer being not higher than 1000 ppm, in acrylic acid. Cross-linked polymer obtained by the polymerization is subjected to a surface crosslinking treatment without substantially using an organic solvent, and under heating at high temperature (150° C. or higher and 250° C. or lower). Thereafter, agglomeration is carried out without substantially using an organic solvent. Accordingly, a particulate water-absorbing agent including a water-absorbing resin having superior property, and being suited for practical applications at high concentrations in absorbing cores such as a diaper and the like without generation of any odor of the organic solvent can be obtained because no volatile organic compound is included.
