A method for producing a porous cross-linked polymer sheet capable of slicing quickly is provided. This method comprises a step for obtaining a porous cross-linked polymer by forming and polymerizing an HIPE, a step for dehydrating the porous cross-linked polymer, and a step for subsequently slicing the dehydrated porous cross-linked polymer.

By removing the salt from the polymer, it is further made possible to prevent a production device from gathering rust and the porous cross-linked polymer from permitting adhesion of rust thereto.
