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.

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 hydrophilic polymer is denatured with a gaseous denaturant or a powdery denaturant substance made from a liquid denaturant substance. The liquid denaturant substance is made into powders by, for example, a method of mixing the liquid denaturant substance with a water-insoluble compound, a method of cooling the liquid denaturant substance to or below its melting point to turn the same into a solid state. Consequently, the hydrophilic polymer can be denatured uniformly. In case that the hydrophilic polymer is denatured with a gaseous denaturant, the hydrophilic polymer and denaturant react with each other efficiently in a safe manner regardless of the size or shape of the hydrophilic polymer. In case that the hydrophilic polymer is denatured with the powdery denaturant substance, not only the liquid denaturant substance which is substantially in the solid state can be mixed with the hydrophilic polymer, but also the denaturation timing can be readily controlled.
摘要:
A water-absorbent resin is produced by crushing a mass of crosslinked hydrogel polymer having high adhesion and elastic properties without kneading it, and drying the crushed crosslinked hydrogel polymer. In the case when the crosslinked hydrogel polymer includes cells therein, the crosslinked hydrogel polymer is crushed so as to restrain reduction in the number of cells contained in the crosslinked hydrogel polymer. The crosslinked hydrogel polymer is crushed by any of crushing methods including: shearing the crosslinked hydrogel polymer with a fixed blade and a rotary blade; cutting the crosslinked hydrogel polymer with a cutter having a pair of rotary blades that are mounted on different shafts and rotate while at least partly overlapping each other; cutting the crosslinked hydrogel polymer with a cutter having a rotary blade using a lubricant; and crushing the crosslinked hydrogel polymer after freezing. With the use of the above methods, it is possible to industrially and easily mass-produce porous water-absorbent resins with excellent absorption properties while restraining reduction in the number of cells contained in the crosslinked hydrogel polymer.
