Abstract
Abstract A method of suspension polymerizing in an aqueous medium vinyl chloride or a mixture of 50% or more vinyl chloride and remainder other monomers copolymerizable therewith in the presence of an oil soluble initiator, a suspension stabilizer and 0.005 to 50 ppm of nitrite, and 10 to 1000 ppm of water soluble metallic salt, the parts being based on the amount of aqueous medium.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
102 words
A method of suspension polymerizing vinyl chloride or a monomer mixture comprising a major portion of vinyl chloride, in an aqueous medium, in the presence of components consisting essentially of an oil soluble polymerization initiator, suspension stabilizing agent, and 0.005 to 50 ppm of a nitrite selected from the group consisting of sodium nitrite, potassium nitrite, calcium nitrite, and ammonium nitrite and 10 to 1000 ppm of a water soluble metallic salt selected from the group consisting of aluminum sulphate, aluminum chloride, stannic chloride, titanium trichloride, titanium tetrachloride and antimony pentachloride, said ppm being based on the amount of said aqueous medium.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
102 words
A method of suspension polymerizing vinyl chloride or a monomer mixture comprising a major portion of vinyl chloride, in an aqueous medium, in the presence of components consisting essentially of an oil soluble polymerization initiator, suspension stabilizing agent, and 0.005 to 50 ppm of a nitrite selected from the group consisting of sodium nitrite, potassium nitrite, calcium nitrite, and ammonium nitrite and 10 to 1000 ppm of a water soluble metallic salt selected from the group consisting of aluminum sulphate, aluminum chloride, stannic chloride, titanium trichloride, titanium tetrachloride and antimony pentachloride, said ppm being based on the amount of said aqueous medium.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
13 words
The method of claim 1, wherein said nitrite comprises 0.01 to 10 ppm.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
34 words
The method of claim 1, wherein said suspension polymerization is of a mixture of vinyl chloride and a monomer selected from the group consisting of vinylidene chloride, ethylene, propylene, vinyl acetate, and mixtures thereof.
