Polyolefin resins and polyacrylic acid-based water-absorbing resins containing an ethylene-acrylic acid copolymer as an essential component can be prepared by adding other auxiliary agents, especially the blowing agents described below, as necessary. The composition is prepared by melt-kneading using a known method such as a screw extruder, Banbury mixer, kneader, or mixing roll. At this time, if a B11 olefin resin other than the ethylene-acrylic acid copolymer is used, the water-absorbing resin and the ethylene-acrylic acid copolymer are melt-kneaded first, and the kneaded product and the polyolefin resin are melt-kneaded. It is possible to improve the uniform dispersibility by setting this to a specific value.
