Abstract

[Object] To provide a method for stably producing a water-absorbent resin in powder form or particle form, which has excellent physical properties such as water absorption performance and the like, without any production trouble.[Solution] A method for producing a water-absorbent resin includes mixing a monomer composition, which contains at least a monomer and a pyrolytic polymerization initiator, with an organic solvent, a temperature of the organic solvent is not lower than 70° C. at time of mixing, and when a mass per unit time of the monomer in the monomer composition to be mixed with the organic solvent is expressed as an amount per unit volume of the organic solvent, a lower limit is 0.01 g/ml/min, and an upper limit is 0.2 g/ml/min.
