A hydrogel has water, a polyvinylsulfonic acid-based polymer, and a polymer matrix containing the water and the polyvinylsulfonic acid-based polymer, in which the polymer matrix contains a copolymer of a monofunctional monomer having one ethylenically unsaturated group and a polyfunctional monomer having 2 to 6 ethylenically unsaturated groups, the copolymer has a hydrophilic group binding to its main chain, the polymer matrix is contained in an amount of 2 to 80 parts by mass in 100 parts by mass of the hydrogel, a polymer derived from the polyfunctional monomer is contained in a proportion of 0.1 to 5 parts by mass in 100 parts by mass of the copolymer, the polyvinylsulfonic acid-based polymer is contained in an amount of 0.1 to 150 parts by mass in 100 parts by mass of the polymer matrix, and the polyvinylsulfonic acid-based polymer has a weight average molecular weight of 200,000 to 3,000,000.

Hydrogel, use thereof, and production method therefor

A process for producing resin particles includes a step in which a polymerizable mixture including a polymerizable monomer including at least one of a styrene-based monomer and a (meth)acrylic-based monomer, and a polymerization initiator is absorbed into seed particles in an aqueous medium, without using a dispersant, in the presence of an anionic surfactant not having a polyoxyethylene chain but having an alkyl group; and a step in which the polymerizable monomer is polymerized in an aqueous medium, without using a dispersant, in the presence of an anionic surfactant having a polyoxyethylene chain to thereby obtain resin particles. The resin particles include a resin derived from a polymerizable monomer including at least one of a styrene-based monomer and a (meth)acrylic-based monomer. The proportion by number of particles having a particle diameter in the range of from 80 to 120% of the volume-average particle diameter is 85% or more.

Resin particles and process for producing same, antiglare film, light-diffusing resin composition, and external preparation

Disclosed are porous resin particles which contain a polymer of a monomer mixture containing, as monomers, at least a monofunctional (meth)acrylic acid ester and a crosslinking monomer. The monofunctional (meth)acrylic acid ester accounts for 1 wt % to 50 wt % of the monomer mixture, and the crosslinking monomer accounts for 50 wt % to 99 wt % of the monomer mixture. The porous resin particles have a specific surface area of 190 m/g to 300 m/g and a bulk specific gravity of 0.25 g/mL to 0.45 g/mL.
