ABSTRACT:
The invention is to provide the methods for producing highly water-absorbable and water-retainable hydrogels having a large particle diameter together with a sufficient gel strength. The method is characterized by use of a specific dispersing agent in the water-in-oil type inverse phase suspension polymerization of an .alpha.,.beta.-unsaturated carboxylic acid and/or its alkali metal salt. Due to the high water-absorbability and water-retainability, along with the superior gel strength and the stable gel structure, the hydrogels of the invention enlarge the conventional range of usages.
