Disclosed is a method of preparing a graft copolymer and a method of preparing a thermoplastic resin composition including the prepared graft copolymer. Also disclosed is a method of preparing a graft copolymer including a process of adding an aromatic vinyl monomer and a vinyl cyanide monomer to a conjugated diene rubber latex that is enlarged with a polymer particle diameter control agent that has a specific glass transition temperature and an average particle diameter in a specific ratio to an average particle diameter of a conjugated diene rubber latex, and graft-polymerizing the same; and a method of preparing a thermoplastic resin composition including the prepared graft copolymer. Also disclosed is a graft copolymer prepared using the conjugated diene rubber latex enlarged with the polymer particle diameter control agent exhibiting the synergistic effect of improving both impact strength and fluidity.

Method of preparing graft copolymer and method of preparing thermoplastic resin composition including the same

The present invention provides an acrylic copolymer coagulant which is a copolymer of a monomer mixture comprising a carboxylic acid-based monomer and an acrylic monomer, and a method of preparing a graft copolymer using the same. According to the present invention, a graft copolymer excellent in impact strength, surface gloss characteristics, and processability can be prepared.

Acrylic copolymer coagulant and method of preparing graft copolymer using the same

Provided is a method of preparing a graft polymer, which includes: polymerizing a monomer mixture comprising a carboxylic acid monomer and methyl acrylate, wherein the carboxylic acid monomer is included at 1.5 to 2.5 wt %, and thus preparing an acrylic coagulant having an average particle diameter of 60 to 70 nm; polymerizing diene-based monomers in the presence of an emulsifier containing a salt of a compound and thus preparing a first diene-based rubber polymer; enlarging the first diene-based rubber polymer using the acrylic coagulant and thus preparing a second diene-based rubber polymer; and graft-polymerizing an aromatic vinyl-based monomer and a vinyl cyanide-based monomer to the second diene-based rubber polymer and thus preparing a graft polymer.

Method of preparing graft polymer

The present invention relates to a polymer coagulant including methacrylamide in a preferred range and an enlarged graft copolymer prepared using same. The polymer coagulant provided in the present invention may enlarge a conjugated diene-based polymer to a suitable particle diameter range, and there are advantages of achieving excellent impact resistance and flowability of a graft copolymer prepared from the polymer.
