Abstract
Abstract A process for suspension polymerization of vinyl monomers in an aqueous liquid medium wherein an inorganic compound difficultly soluble in the liquid medium and a resinous substance, having a solubility parameter value of from 7.8 to 16.1 and being soluble in the vinyl monomers are kneaded in advance with the vinyl monomers, and the kneaded mixture is then suspended in the liquid medium to polymerize the vinyl monomers.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
113 words
In a process for producing a granular polymer by suspension polymerization, which comprises kneading a monomeric composition consisting essentially of a. at least one vinyl monomer, and b. a vinyl monomer polymerization initiator, the improvement which comprises: kneading into said monomeric composition, the following: c. small particles of an inorganic compound, having a solubility in water of not more than 10 percent, and d. a resinous substance, acting as a fluidizing agent, having a solubility parameter value within the range of from 7.8 to 16.1 and being soluble in said monomeric composition, and subsequently kneading said composition and then suspending the kneaded composition in an aqueous liquid medium to polymerize the vinyl monomer.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
