Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé de production de particules de résine absorbant l'eau, ledit procédé comprenant le chauffage d'un mélange d'une poudre de particules de polymère contenant un polymère avec une solution de réticulation contenant un agent de réticulation de surface pour réticuler ainsi le polymère par l'agent de réticulation de surface. Dans ce procédé, lorsque la capacité de rétention centrifuge (CRC) des particules de polymère avant que le polymère ne soit réticulé par l'agent de réticulation de surface est appelée CRC (avant réticulation de surface) et la CRC une fois que le polymère est réticulé par l'agent de réticulation de surface est appelée CRC (après réticulation de surface), la CRC (avant réticulation de surface) est de 65 g/g ou plus et le polymère est réticulé par l'agent de réticulation de surface de façon à ajuster la quantité de changement de la CRC, qui est représentée par ΔCRC et calculée par la formule : ΔCRC = CRC (avant réticulation de surface) - CRC (après réticulation de surface), à 10-30 g/g.
