Abstract: The present invention relates to a super absorbent polymer. The super absorbent polymer according to the present invention includes surface crosslinked polymer particles prepared by surface crosslinking particles of a base resin, wherein the base resin is polymerized from water-soluble ethylene-based unsaturated monomers, and a water-soluble component, in which the water-soluble component is present in an amount of 5% by weight or less based on the total weight of the super absorbent polymer, when measured after free swelling the super absorbent polymer in a 0.9% NaCl solution for 1 hour, and the super absorbent polymer has a permeability of 50 seconds or shorter. According to the present invention, provided is a super absorbent polymer having excellent liquid permeability even when swollen without a reduction in centrifuge retention capacity or absorbency under load while having improved permeability.
