Abstract

Abstract A light colored thermostable chlorinated polyethylene, polypropylene or copolymer of ethylene with an Alpha -olefin having three to six carbon atoms is obtained by chlorinating the polymer having a molecular weight in the range of from 20,000 to 2,000,000 with gaseous chlorine containing 0.01 to 1.5 % by weight of steam.
