Abstract
Abstract A process for preparing a thermoplastic resin composition comprises subjecting a cross-linked rubber obtained by copolymerization of an acrylic ester represented by the general formula CH 2 = CHCOOR, wherein R is an alkyl group having 2 to 8 carbon atoms, and a cross-linking agent to graft polymerization with a polymerizable vinyl or vinylidene monomer in the presence of polyvinyl chloride resin particles through radical polymerization. The present disclosure also relates to a process for preparing a mixed composition comprising the thermoplastic resin composition prepared above and a powder of polyvinyl chloride resin. The thermoplastic resin composition has good weather-resistance properties and good mechanical properties. As the thermoplastic resin composition can easily be mixed with a polyvinyl chloride resin, a polyvinyl chloride resin composition having excellent properties is obtained by simple mixing operation.
