PRODUCTION METHOD FOR WATER-ABSORBING RESIN

摘要

There is provided a production method for a water-absorbing resin for stably and continuously producing the water-absorbing resin with industrially high property, in particular, the water-absorbing resin with high liquid permeation. A method of the present invention relates to a production method for a water-absorbing resin including: a polymerization step of an aqueous solution of an unsaturated monomer; a drying step of the resultant hydrogel polymer; and a surface cross-linking step after drying; characterized by including a pneumatic transportation step for pneumatic transporting the water-absorbing resin powder substance in a pipeline with a surface roughness (Rz) of the inner surface of equal to or smaller than 800 nm, by using gas with a dew point of - 5°C to - 100°C.
