Abstract
The present invention provides a method for manufacturing a particulate water-absorbing agent which has excellent liquid diffusibility and liquid permeability, and whose amount of residual monomers is reduced. The method for manufacturing the particulate water-absorbing agent of the present invention includes a step of surface-crosslinking, in the presence of an organic crosslinking agent, water-absorbing resin particles obtained through at least a step of polymerizing an aqueous solution of unsaturated monomers, and in or after the polymerizing step, a reaction system is mixed with peroxide. Thus, it is possible to obtain the particulate water-absorbing agent which has excellent liquid diffusibility and liquid permeability and whose amount of residual monomers is small, that is, it is possible to obtain the particulate water-absorbing agent which is highly functional and highly safe.
