WPA2 creates fresh session keys on every association. The benefit is that the encryption keys used for each client on the network are unique and specific to that client. Ultimately, every packet sent over the air is encrypted with a unique key. The ability to avoid key reuse and provide unique, fresh encryption keys is a basic tenet of good security practice and is why WPA2 offers such good security.
