Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for producing an unsaturated carboxylic acid using a catalyst having both a high catalytic performance and a high mechanical strength, and in the method, a supported catalyst obtained by feeding a liquid binder component and a catalytic active component containing molybdenum and vanadium and/or a precursor thereof into a rolling granulator and conducting granulation at a relative centrifugal acceleration of 0.5 G or more and 30 G or less is used.
