Abstract

The present invention relates to a super absorbent polymer which maintains excellent absorption performance and retains physical properties even after being physically damaged by an external force. The super absorbent polymer comprises: a base polymer powder including a first cross-linked polymer of a water-soluble ethylenically unsaturated monomer having at least partially neutralized acidic groups; and a surface cross-linked layer formed on the base polymer powder and including a second cross-linked polymer in which the first cross-linked polymer is further cross-linked via an alkylene carbonate having 2 to 5 carbon atoms, wherein the super absorbent polymer satisfies predetermined physical properties.
