Abstract

The present invention is a method for the production of a water absorbent resin, which comprises preparing a monomer component possessing an ability to form a cross-linked structure and convert itself into a hydrated gel polymer during the course of aqueous solution polymerization, possessing an acid group-containing monomer content of at least 50 mol %, and having 10 to 50 mol % of said acid group-containing monomer neutralized and subjecting said monomer component to aqueous solution polymerization within a reaction vessel having a plurality of rotary shafts each fitted with stirring blades.
