Detailed Description of the Invention The present invention is a swellable water-retaining agent that can be used in a wide range of applications, such as a water-retaining agent for seedlings and other plant cultivation beds, a carrier for impregnating fragrances, inks, and various other liquid substances. The present invention aims to provide a method for manufacturing the same, and examples thereof will be described below.

Example 1 10 parts by weight of acrylic acid and 5 parts by weight of N-methylol acrylamide were dissolved by heating (other suitable solvents may also be used together), a catalyst was added, and the mixture was heated at around 100°C. Polymerized. This polymer was ground and neutralized with alkali.

Example 2 The same formulation as in Example 1 was heated and dissolved, neutralized with an alkali, a catalyst was added, polymerized at around 100°C, and the polymer was pulverized.

When water is added to the powdery water-retaining agent produced as described above, all of the examples absorb water and swell into a jelly-like substance within a few minutes without producing any part that dissolves in water. In particular, the swelling ratio of Example 1, in which the neutralization treatment was performed after polymerization, was about 10% higher than that of Example 2.

Regarding the amount of N-methylol acrylamide added, if the amount is small, the viscosity in the water-absorbed and swollen state will decrease and it will become soft, and if it is large, the opposite will occur.
The amount can be determined depending on the intended use of the product, but
Good results are usually obtained using at least 20% by weight, based on acrylic acid. In addition, N-monosubstituted acrylamides other than this N-methylolacrylamide and N/N-disubstituted acrylamides such as N/N-dimethylacrylamide could also be used, but N-methylolacrylamide is particularly effective. It was hot.

Furthermore, the water-retaining agent that has become a jelly-like substance by absorbing water and swelling will return to its original gel-like substance in several tens of minutes to several hours depending on the conditions if it is kept dry, and its swelling performance will not change even if it is rehydrated.

It is clear from the description of Examples that neutralization with alkali is effective. In particular, neutralizing the polymer with an alkali is more effective than neutralizing it before polymerization, but various methods can be considered. For example, it is possible to add water to the pulverized polymer, neutralize it by adding an alkali, and then dry it, but it is possible to mix the pulverized polymer with an alkali or a granular material prepared by adding an alkali to a suitable carrier. Other methods include a method in which a viscous substance consisting of an alkali or an alkali and a suitable filler is kneaded with a pulverized polymer, and a method in which an alkali is added to water or other liquid material to be impregnated.

The present invention can be carried out as described above, and according to the present invention, a swellable water-retaining agent having a high swelling rate, that is, a high-performance water-retaining performance can be obtained. Such a swellable water-retaining agent can be particularly effectively used as a water-retaining agent (water supply agent) for raising seedlings and other plant cultivation beds, which conventionally could not be used economically due to the large amount required. That is, if an appropriate amount of the water retention agent of the present invention in the form of powder or granules is mixed with soil or an alternative cultivation bed material, the water that is sprinkled or supplied and the moisture in the soil will be absorbed by the water retention agent. Because it swells and stores moisture in a predetermined area for a long period of time, it is possible to greatly reduce the number of times watering or watering is required, and it also makes it possible to grow plants on sandy soil, which was previously thought to be inefficient for plant cultivation. Furthermore, the growth of plants can also be improved. When used for such purposes, a fertilizer component may be added to the water retention agent of the present invention.

Of course, the water retention agent of the present invention can also be used as a moisture carrier in areas or objects where moisture must be retained for a long time to maintain wetness for purposes other than those mentioned above, and it can also be used as a moisture carrier for fragrances. It can also be very effectively used as a carrier for impregnating liquid fertilizers, liquid adhesives, inks, and other liquids other than water.
