The present invention provides a method for producing a slurry composition which realizes excellent dispersibility through simple steps. In addition, the present invention provides a slurry composition produced using this method. The present invention provides a method for producing a slurry composition containing inorganic powder, a polyvinyl acetal resin, and an organic solvent, the method comprising the steps of: mixing inorganic powder, a polyvinyl acetal resin (A) and an organic solvent for inorganic dispersion to prepare an inorganic dispersion; mixing a polyvinyl acetal resin (B) and an organic solvent for resin solution to prepare a resin solution; and adding the resin solution to the inorganic dispersion, the polyvinyl acetal resin (A) having a polymerization degree of 200 to 600, the polyvinyl acetal resin (B) having a polymerization degree of 800 to 4000, and an amount of the polyvinyl acetal resin (A) used in preparation of the inorganic dispersion being 0.1 to 20 parts by weight relative to 100 parts by weight of the inorganic powder.

Method for producing slurry composition

The present invention provides a method for producing a slurry composition which realizes excellent dispersibility through simple steps and can maintain high dispersibility over a long term. In addition, the present invention provides a slurry composition produced using this method. The present invention provides a method for producing a slurry composition containing an inorganic powder, a polyvinyl acetal resin, and an organic solvent. The method contains the steps of mixing an inorganic powder, a mixed polyvinyl acetal resin (A) and an organic solvent (i) to prepare an inorganic dispersion; mixing a polyvinyl acetal resin (B) and an organic solvent (ii) to prepare a resin solution; and adding the resin solution to the inorganic dispersion.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a polyvinyl acetal resin composition capable of giving a ceramic green sheet which has sufficient flexibility and is hardly damaged even when being formed into a thin film and comprises a polyvinyl acetal resin composition containing a polyvinyl acetal resin A and a polyvinyl acetal resin B incompatible with the polyvinyl acetal resin A, which is formed by acetalizing a mixed polyvinyl alcohol containing two or more kinds of polyvinyl alcohols wherein a phase composed of the polyvinyl acetal resin A and a phase composed of the polyvinyl acetal resin B form a sea-island structure.
