摘要:
A water-absorbent resin is produced by dispersing a solid blowing agent having an average particle diameter within a range of from 1 &mgr;m to 100 &mgr;m in an aqueous monomer solution containing an unsaturated monomer and a cross-linking agent, and then polymerizing the unsaturated monomer. The water-absorbent resin has excellent water absorption characteristics, such as improved dispersion and absorption rate of aqueous fluid, enhanced water retention capacity and dry touch, lower water-soluble component content, and lower residual monomer content. When a water-absorbent resin composition using the water-absorbent resin is used for, for example, a sanitary material, it is possible to improve the absorption rate and water retention capacity, and prevent leakage of fluid from the sanitary material.

摘要:
A water content of a water-containing gel of a hydrophilic cross-linked polymer is reduced by pressuring (calendaring) it. Then, a gel composition including, for example, a water-containing gel including cross-linked poly(meth)acrylic acid (salt), glycerol (polyhydric alcohol) and polyester fibers (auxiliary forming material), etc., is fed to a drum dryer on an upstream side of a pressurizing roller. Then, the resulting gel composition is pressurized (calendared) heated by a pressurizing roller to be formed into a sheet. As a result, a sheet-like absorbent material having at least one smooth surface can be obtained. The absorbent material resulting from the described method shows excellent properties and especially absorbing properties such as absorbing rate, absorbency under load, and shape retaining properties.

摘要:
A body fluid-absorbing article such as, for example, a disposable diaper is provided with at least one absorbent member comprising 50 to 99% by weight of a fibrous material and 50 to 1% by weight of an absorbent polymer, which absorbent member contains at least one compound (A) selected from the group consisting of sulfur-containing reducing agents, antioxidants, and oxidizing agents. By the action of the compound (A), the swelled gel of the absorbent polymer formed in consequence of absorption of body fluid is prevented from being deteriorated or decomposed by aging.

摘要:
The present invention provides a surface-crosslinking process of a water-absorbent resin to obtain a water-absorbing agent which has high absorption speed and excellent absorption capacity under a load (a water-absorbent resin which has specific or larger values of properties). In a process comprising the step of adding a crosslinking agent to a dry water-absorbent resin powder to thereby crosslink the neighborhood of its surface, the surface-crosslinking is carried out while the resin powder having a weight-average particle diameter of 200 to 1,000 &mgr;m is pulverized.
