Abstract
The object of the present invention is to provide a more practical liquid-absorbing substrate capable of absorbing not only water but also alcohols, wherein liquid absorbency and gel properties of the substrate can be easily controlled. Namely, the present invention relates to a liquid-absorbing substrate containing: (A) a product obtained by hydrolysis and polycondensation of a compound represented by the formula (I)(R)M(X)  (I)(wherein, Rrepresents a hydrogen atom, C-Calkyl, or C-Calkenyl; M represents a metal atom; X represents a hydrolyzable group; m represents the atomic valence of M; and n represents an integer of 0 or 1) in a solvent in the presence of a catalyst; and(B) a cellulose derivative having a mass-average molecular weight of 1×10to 5×10.
