Examples of water-absorbent resins of this type include starch-acrylonitrile graft copolymer hydrolysates, polyacrylic acid (salt) crosslinked products, acrylic acid (salt) -vinyl alcohol copolymers, carboxymethylcellulose crosslinked products, and polyethylene. Oxide cross-linked products are known, but in any case, the absorption capacity is low, or even if the absorption capacity is high, the gel strength after water absorption is weak, or the gel after water absorption becomes sticky. It has drawbacks such as

However, if the cross-linking density is increased to increase the gel strength, the absorption capacity decreases, so that the gel strength and the absorption capacity cannot be compatible at a high level. As a method of obtaining a high gel strength without reducing the absorption capacity so much, for example, a method of forming secondary crosslinks on the surface of the water-absorbent resin particles has been proposed (Japanese Patent Publication No. 59-6696, Japanese Patent Publication No. 60-60). 18690, Japanese special public Sho6

The heating temperature is in the range of 40 to 200 ° C, preferably 120 to 200 ° C. 200
Care must be taken at high temperatures above 0 ° C, as thermal degradation may occur depending on the type of surfactant. On the other hand, when the temperature is lower than 40 ° C., the effect of the heat treatment is hardly seen. When heating the water absorbent resin and the fluorine-containing compound (I) during mixing, a heating device may be installed in the above mixer.
