20100101982CLASSIFICATION METHOD OF PARTICULATE WATER ABSORBENT RESIN - A particulate water absorbent resin is obtained by polymerizing an unsaturated monomer so as to form a cross-linked polymer hydrogel and drying and pulverizing the cross-linked polymer hydrogel, and plural classification steps different from each other are carried out so as to remove fine powder. In this manner, the present invention provides the method for classification of particulate water absorbent resin which method allows particulate water absorbent resin having a desired particle diameter range to be efficiently obtained at low cost while securing the high productivity even in case where a larger production equipment is used.04-29-2010
20100249320Process for producing water-absorbing resin - Drying is performed in a continuous fluidized bed having at least two drying rooms. Drying is performed after pulverization is performed between drying in a first drying room and drying in a second or subsequent room. Drying is performed in a continuous fluidized bed whose fluidized bed contains a heat transfer tube. The second or subsequent drying room has a higher drying temperature than the first drying room. Drying is performed with the drying temperature of the first drying room falling within a range of not less than 80° C. to not more than 200° C. and with the drying temperature of the second or subsequent drying room falling within a range of not less than 100° C. to not more than 220° C. Further, a method for producing a water absorbent resin includes: a sequence of the steps of: (1) polymerizing a monomer aqueous solution; (2) drying a hydrogel polymer obtained in the step (1); (3) performing particle size control by either pulverizing or pulverizing and classifying a dry polymer obtained in the step (2); and (5) performing surface crosslinking on water absorbent resin powder whose particle size has been controlled in the step (3), the method further including the step (4) of performing second heat drying on the water absorbent resin powder whose particle size has been controlled in the step (3), the step (4) preceding the step (5). Further, the water absorbent resin has a moisture content (defined by a loss on drying performed for three hours at 180° C.) of 0 wt % to 3 wt % before it is supplied to the step (5). (This makes it possible to provide a method for producing a water absorbent resin which method makes it possible to obtain a particulate water absorbent resin of excellent properties at low cost with high productivity.09-30-2010

20100308263WATER ABSORBENT AND PRODUCING METHOD OF SAME - An object of the present invention is to provide a water absorbent having excellent gel properties and showing excellent properties when used in a water-absorbing material of a sanitary/hygienic material such as paper diaper. Moreover, another object of the present invention is to provide a water absorbent which is safe and excellent in liquid permeability, and in which an amount of liquid permeability improver for improving the liquid permeability is reduced. The water absorbent is made from a water-absorbing resin prepared by a specific polymerization method and having a high degree of cross-linking, a high liquid holding property and a high gel strength (its swelling pressure of gel layer of is 35 kdyne/cm2 or more). This water absorbent is further processed to have a particular particle size distribution (95 wt % or more of its particles are less than 850ƒÊm but not less than 106ƒÊm, and logarithmic standard deviation (ƒĐƒÄ) is in a range of 0.25 to 0.45) and then surface cross-linked. After that, a liquid permeability improver is added therein.12-09-2010
