However, although conventional powdery water-absorbent resins have excellent absorption properties, natural fibers such as pulp, polyethylene fibers, polypropylene fibers, polyester fibers, and fibers obtained by compounding these fibers, etc. Was inadequate in terms of adhesion to synthetic fibers. In particular, as the ratio of the water-absorbent resin to the fiber increases (for example, when the weight ratio of the water-absorbent resin / fiber exceeds 30/70), the adhesiveness between the water-absorbent resin and the fiber decreases, and the sanitary material, etc. When used in water, the water-absorbent resin tends to cause problems such as migration, ubiquity, and falling off from the fiber. There is also a proposal that a water-absorbing agent in which the entire surface of a water-absorbent resin is coated with a water-soluble and / or hydrolysable thermoplastic resin has an adhesive property to fibers or the like (Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 242858/1990). However, in this case, although the adhesiveness to the fiber is improved, there is a drawback that the absorption characteristics inherent to the water-absorbent resin, particularly the absorption rate and the initial absorption rate, are extremely deteriorated, and the excreted urine and menstrual blood are instantly removed. It is difficult to apply the above water-absorbing agent to sanitary materials such as disposable diapers and sanitary products that require absorption and retention performance.

The melting point of (B) is 50 to 180 ° C.,
Preferably it is 60-160 degreeC. When the melting point is less than 50 ° C., problems tend to occur such as blocking during storage or use of the water absorbing agent, and fusion of the water absorbing agents. On the other hand, when the melting point exceeds 180 ° C., a high temperature is required for fixing to the fiber, and a large amount of heat energy is required, which is not economical, and a treatment at a high temperature causes a decrease in absorption performance or a coloring phenomenon. Is not preferred.

The particle size of (B) is usually not more than 300 microns, preferably 1 to 250 microns, more preferably 10 to 200 microns. When the particle size exceeds 300 microns, the mixed state with the water-absorbent resin (A) becomes uneven, and the fixation to the fiber is reduced, and the initial absorption of the water-absorbing agent is reduced. Further, there is a problem that due to the uneven mixing state, phase separation between (A) and (B) occurs during storage, transportation or use of the water absorbing agent.

The resin (B) is a resin particle which does not dissolve or hydrolyze even when it is brought into contact with ordinary water for at least about 24 hours. The reason for this is that when the water absorbing agent of the present invention is applied to sanitary materials such as disposable diapers and sanitary articles, it is possible to maintain a certain degree of adhesiveness during the wearing period even after absorbing urine or menstrual blood. Conversely, in the case of a resin that dissolves in water in a short time or becomes water-soluble by hydrolysis, even if there is no problem in fixing to the fiber in a dry state, the resin dissolves after absorbing urine or menstrual blood. This may cause a slimy feeling, and may cause problems such as gel migration or falling off after water absorption.

1515 parts by weight. When the amount of (B) exceeds 20 parts by weight, the fixing property to the fiber is improved, but (B) is changed to (A).
Because most of the surface (for example, 80% or more) is covered, the absorption performance, absorption rate, and initial absorption rate of the water absorbing agent are reduced. On the other hand, if it is less than 1 part by weight, the adhesion to the fiber becomes insufficient.

And (B) are the simplest and most economical method. Further, at the time of or after mixing (A) and (B), the mixture is treated at a temperature equal to or higher than the melting point of (B) to partially fix (B) to the surface of (A).
And (B) can be improved in uniform mixing properties and adhesion to fibers. Further, (B) was converted to (A) by a mechanical operation such as a hybridization method and a coatmizer method.
It is also possible to partially adhere to the surface of. The term “partial” as used herein means that the surface of (A) is not covered with (B), and for example, an area of about 80% or less of the surface of (A), preferably 60 to 10% Means that the area is fixed at (B). When the surface of (A) is covered with (B), the absorption rate and the initial absorption of the water absorbing agent are extremely reduced.
