A molding compound in swelling gel phase is prepared by crushing a swelling gel, swelled with a monomer in liquid phase which polymerizes a compound having three-dimensional linking by a radical polymerization reaction, into a predetermined size, and a molding compound (z) is made to adhere to a surface of the molding compound in swelling gel phase so that color difference between a color tone of the molding compound (z) and a color tone of the molding compound in swelling gel phase is not less than 3 in a case where the molding compound (z) is provided on the surface of the molding compound in swelling gel phase, which does not substantially dissolve in the monomer and has a weight change ratio ranging from 0 to +200% in a case where the molding compound in swelling gel phase is completely impregnated with the monomer, so that the molding compound in swelling gel phase and the molding compound (z) are molded under a thermal pressure, and a ratio of the molding compound (z) to a total amount of the molding compound (z) and the molding compound in swelling gel phase is not less than 0.01 weight % and not more than 30 weight %.

Artificial marble and producing method thereof

A curable composition comprising (A) a monomer mixture containing as an essential component thereof a mixture of 20 to 80% by weight of an aliphatic polyfunctional (meth)acrylate and 80 to 20% by weight of an aromatic vinyl compound, (B) an inorganic filler having an average particle diameter of not more than 5 microns, and (C) a catalytic amount of a polymerization initiator, and having said inorganic filler (B) dispersed in an amount of 250 to 800 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of said monomer mixture (A).
