Abstract

A method includes supplying a gas containing acrolein to a fixed bed reactor including a reaction tube to produce acrylic acid by vapor phase catalytic oxidation of acrolein. The reaction tube is packed with catalysts having different activities in such a way that catalyst layers are formed in a tube axis direction. A catalyst X having the highest activity among the catalysts contained in all the catalyst layers is placed in the whole or a part of a section up to 30% of a length of all the catalyst layers from a rearmost portion on a gas outlet side toward a gas inlet side. A catalytically active component x in the catalyst X has Mo, V, and optionally Cu. When Cu is included, its amount is 0.8 mol or less per 12 mol of Mo. A specific surface area of the catalytically active component x is 15-40 m2/g.

Abstract

Provided are a water-absorbing resin having more excellent balance of fluid retention capacity, liquid permeability, and low dustiness and a novel measurement method which enables evaluation of excellent physical properties of the water-absorbing resin. A method for measuring an absorption speed of a particulate water-absorbing agent is a method including the step of applying pressure to a portion of a bottom surface of a measurement container (51) by use of a flat plate (52) in a state in which part or whole of the particulate water-absorbing agent (56) is fixed on the bottom surface of the measurement container (51), the bottom surface being surrounded by a frame, introducing an aqueous solution through a liquid injection inlet (54) with which the flat plate (52) is equipped, and then measuring the amount of time elapsed until an end of absorption of the introduced aqueous solution by the particulate water-absorbing agent (56).
