Abstract:
1. A method for producing a water-absorbent resin comprising: subjecting at least one water-soluble ethylenic unsaturated monomer to reversed-phase suspension polymerization in a petroleum hydrocarbon dispersion medium, the reversed-phase suspension polymerization being conducted using 0.00005 to 0.00016 mol of water-soluble azo initiator for radical polymerization per mol of the water-soluble ethylenic unsaturated monomer to be used in the presence of 0.000015 to 0.00015 mol of hypophosphorous compound per mol of the water-soluble ethylenic unsaturated monomer to be used.
