Method of producing hydrophilic resin

摘要

A method of producing hydrophilic resin by pulverizing and drying a hydrogel polymer, in which, during pulverization of the hydrogel polymer, the hydrogel polymer is sheared between two spiral rotary blades with different respective feed rates, provided opposite one another. Due to the difference in feed rates of the two rotary blades, one rotary blade overtakes the other, and the hydrogel polymer is caught therebetween and sheared. It is preferable if the temperature of the hydrogel polymer at this time is no less than 40 DEG C.
