Abstract
The present invention relates to a superabsorbent polymer that not only has excellent basic absorption performance, but also exhibits more improved absorption speed, permeability, etc., and a method for preparing the same. The superabsorbent polymer includes a base polymer powder including: a first crosslinked polymer of water soluble ethylenically unsaturated monomers having acid groups of which at least a part are neutralized; and a surface crosslink layer that is formed on the base polymer powder, and further includes a second crosslinked polymer in which the first crosslinked polymer is additionally crosslinked by a C2-5 alkylene carbonate, wherein an absorption degree, SFC, an absorption speed, and a porosity fulfill specific ranges.
