Teilchenförmiges wasserabsorbierendes Material

摘要

There is disclosed a water-absorbing agent which combines both performances of the capillary suction force and the liquid permeability. This water-absorbing agent is a particulate water-absorbing agent comprising water-absorbent resin particles (alpha) and a liquid-permeability-enhancing agent (beta), wherein the water-absorbent resin particles (alpha) are surface-crosslink-treated particles of a crosslinked polymer of a monomer including acrylic acid and/or its salt; with the water-absorbing agent being characterized in that the particulate water-absorbing agent has: a mass-average particle diameter (D50) in the range of 234 to 394 gm, a logarithmic standard deviation (sigmazeta) of a particle diameter distribution in the range of 0.25 to 0.45, an absorption capacity without load (CRC) of not less than 15 g/g, and a water-extractable component content of not higher than 15 mass %; and further a liquid-permeability-enhancing agent (beta) content in the range of 0.01 to 5 mass parts per 100 mass parts of the water-absorbent resin particles (alpha).
