Full Text	Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an absorbent resin composition, and more specifically, to an absorbent master batch resin composition that is added to a polystyrene resin for preparing a polystyrene foam tray. Background of the Invention A polystyrene foam tray is widely in use as a tray for packaging a product. Specifically, the polystyrene foam tray is widely in use for packaging a fish, a fruit, and the like, as well as all sorts of meats, such as fresh meat, a chicken, and the like. In other words, all sorts or fish, or meat, such as pork, a beef, a chicken, and the like, are put in a tray, are packaged with a wrap, and then are put into circulation. Meat or fish that is put in the polystyrene foam tray releases water, so that the released water will fill inside the packaged tray. Most of the released water mixes with a blood of meat or fish, so that the water mixed with a blood will fill in the tray. The water mixed with a blood that fills in the polystyrene foam tray is looked bad, and also is hygienically bad. Nevertheless, the polystyrene foam tray does not have an absorbent property and a hygroscopic property in itself, so that the water mixed with a blood could not be removed. A way for packaging the content altogether with a specific component, such as an absorbent material or a hygroscopic material inside the tray was attempted, but the way had no effect. Therefore, the inventors decided that if the polystyrene foam tray can absorb water or water mixed with a blood released from content, such as meat or fish, the above-mentioned problem would be resolved. So, the inventors developed a new master batch chip composition having an excellent absorbent property, which is added to the polystyrene resin. Objects of the Invention The object of the present invention is to provide a new master batch chip composition that is added to a polystyrene resin for preparing a polystyrene foam tray having an excellent absorbent property. Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for preparing the new master batch chip composition having an excellent absorbent property, which is added to the polystyrene resin. Another object of the present invention is to provide a polystyrene foam tray having an excellent absorbent property by adding the master batch chip composition having an absorbent property to the polystyrene resin. The above-mentioned objects and other objects can be achieved according to the present invention as described in the following. Technical Solution An absorbent master batch chip composition for a polystyrene foam tray according to the present invention includes about 1-80 parts by weight of an organic anionic sulphonate represented by the following Chemical Formula I or the following Chemical Formula II, about 1-75 parts by weight of a calcium carbonate (CaCO3), and about 1-50 parts by weight of talc, with respect to 100 parts by weight of a polystyrene basic resin including a general purpose polystyrene (GPPS), a high impact polystyrene (HIPS), and the like: [Chemical Formula 1] wherein, R and R1 are C13-18 alkane residual group. A representative organic anionic sulphonate is a secondary n-alkane sulphonate, and a surfactant, such as a linear alkyl sulphonate (LAS), a linear alkylbenzene sulphonate (LABS), an alpha olefine sulfonate (AOS), a sodium lauryl sulphate (SLS), and the like can be preferably used. The calcium carbonate has the role of a compatibilizer for the uniform absorption and mixing of the organic anionic sulphonate, and the talc has the role of a nucleating agent, which ensures that cells are small and uniformly distributed during foaming. Master batch chips are produced by mixing the ingredients of the master batch chip composition in a super mixer such that the organic anionic sulphonate is uniformly distributed in the basic resin, extruding from an extruder and then cutting into pellets. The absorbent master batch chip prepared by the present invention mixes to the polystyrene resin to prepare a sheet phase, and the prepared polystyrene sheet is vacuum-moulded to prepare the polystyrene foam tray as a final product. Hereinafter, the detailed description of the present invention will be descried in detail. Advantageous Effects The present invention relates to an absorbent master batch resin composition that is added to a polystyrene resin for preparing an absorbent polystyrene foam tray. The absorbent master batch chip composition according to the present invention is used for preparing the polystyrene foam tray that can absorb water by mixing the absorbent master batch chip composition with the polystyrene resin. In addition, the absorbent master batch chip composition according to the present invention is used for providing a hygienic stable packaging and a visually clean packaging by absorbing water or water mixed with a blood that is released when all sorts of fish as well as fresh meats are packaged into the polystyrene foam tray. A main material of the absorbent polystyrene foam tray according to the present invention is a polystyrene resin, and mixes with the absorbent master batch chip composition according to the present invention to prepare as the sheet phase. And then the sheet phase is vacuum-moulded to prepare trays in various sizes and shapes. The main material is the polystyrene resin, but other resin, such as an ethyl vinyl alcohol (EVA), a polyethylene (PE), polystyrene, SBS (styrene-butadiene-styrene), and the like can be partially included in adequate amount. A basic resin of the absorbent master batch chip composition according to the present invention is polystyrene. The resin used in the present invention is a general purpose polystyrene (GPPS), a high impact polystyrene (HIPS), or the mixed polystyrene thereof. The mixture of the general-purpose polystyrene and the high impact polystyrene may be preferably used, and the ratio preferably is within about 50~70 to 50~30 with respect to weight rate. The organic anionic sulphonate is added in the range of about 1~80 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the polystyrene basic resin. The organic anionic sulphonate has the structure represented by the following Chemical Formula I or Chemical Formula II: wherein, R and R1 are C13-18 alkane residual group. A representative organic anionic sulphonate is a secondary n-alkane sulphonate, and a surfactant, such as a linear alkyl sulphonate (LAS, represented by the following Chemical Formula III), a linear alkylbenzene sulphonate (LABS, represented by the following Chemical Formula IV), an alpha olefine sulfonate (AOS, represented by the following Chemical Formula V), a sodium lauryl sulphate (SLS, represented by the following Chemical Formula VI), and the like can be preferably used: [Chemical Formula III] The organic anionic sulphonate used in the present invention can use a carboxylate, such as a long chain fatty acid alkali salt (soap), N-acrylamino acid salt, an alkyl ether carbon acid salt, an acylated peptide, and the like; sulphonate, such as an alkyl sulphonate, alkyl benzene and alkyl amino acid salt, an alkylnaphthalene sulphonate, sulphosuccinate, and the like; sulfuric acid ester salt, such as a sulfated oil, an alkyl sulphate, an alky ether sulphate, an alkyl amyl ether sulphate, an alkyl amide sulphate, and the like; an anionic surfactant, such as an alkyl phosphate, an alkyl ether phosphate, an alkyl aryl ether phosphate, and the like, as an anionic surfactant. About 1~75 parts by weight of the calcium carbonate (CaCO3) and about 1~50 parts by weight of talc are mixed with 100 parts by weight of the polystyrene basic resin. The carbon carbonate has the role of a compatibilising agent for the uniform absorption and mixing of the organic anionic sulphonate, and the talc has the role of a nucleating agent, which ensures that cells are small and uniformly distributed during foaming. Master batch chips are produced by mixing the ingredients of the master batch chip composition in a super mixer such that the organic anionic sulphonate is uniformly distributed in the basic resin, extruding from an extruder and then cutting into pellets. When mixing in the super mixer, the organic anionic sulphonate is melted by a self-heat generated from the mixer, and then the melted organic anionic sulphonate is absorbed into the calcium carbonate and the talc to be uniformly distributed in the resin. The uniformly mixed mixture is extruded in the extruder, cooled, and then cut into pellets to prepare the master batch chip. The absorbent master batch chip prepared by the present invention is mixed with the polystyrene resin to prepare a sheet phase, and the prepared polystyrene sheet is vacuum-moulded to prepare the polystyrene foam tray as a final product. About 1-20 parts by weight of the absorbent master batch chip according to the present invention is added to 100 parts by weight of the polystyrene resin to mould the sheet phase. Preferably, about 5~10 parts by weight of the absorbent master batch chip according to the present invention is added to 100 parts by weight of the polystyrene resin. The moulded sheet phase is vacuum-moulded to prepare trays in various sizes and shapes. The absorbent polystyrene foam tray prepared by the present invention can absorb about water of 2/1 coffee cup per a tray within 30 minutes. When water can be generally absorbed within 2 hours for packaging a fresh meat or fish, there is no problem visually or hygienically. Nevertheless, the absorbent rate of the absorbent polystyrene foam tray according to the present invention is better than the above-mentioned absorbent rate. The present invention will be all specifically described by the following embodiments, which are just described for the purpose of illustration and are not limited to the scope of the present invention.

by weight of an organic anionic sulphonate; 1-75 parts by weight of calcium carbonate
(CaCO3); and 1-50 parts by weight of talc. The organic anionic sulphonate is secondary n-
alkane sulphonates. The calcium carbonate has the role of a compatibilising agent for the
uniform absorption and mixing of the organic anionic sulphonate and the talc has the role of a
nucleating agent which ensures that cells are small and uniformly distributed during foaming.
Master batch chips are produced by mixing the ingredients of the master batch chip
composition in a super mixer such that organic anionic sulphonate is uniformly distributed id
the basic resin, extruding from an extruder and then cutting into pellets.
