Abstract
A thermoplastic vinyl chloride polymer composition superior in processing properties is provided. The composition comprises (I) a predominant amount of polyvinyl chloride or a copolymer predominantly comprised of vinyl chloride and (II) a minor amount of two stage sequentially produced methyl methacrylate composite polymer consisting essentially of 1 to 49 wt. % of component A polymerized from a monomer or monomer mixture of 90 to 100 wt. % of methyl methacrylate and 0 to 10 wt. % of at least one copolymerizable unsaturated monomer, said component A having a glass transition temperature of at least 75.degree. C and a reduced viscosity of 1.8 to approximately 10; and 51 to 99 wt. % of component B polymerized onto or in the presence of said component A from a monomer mixture of 55 to 90 wt. % of a methyl methacrylate, 10 to 45 wt. % of an acrylic acid ester and 0 to 20 wt. % of at least one unsaturated monomer copolymerizable with methyl methacrylate and the acrylic acid ester, said component B exhibiting, if polymerized in the absence of said component A, a glass transition temperature of 25.degree. to 80.degree. C and a reduced viscosity of 1.8 to 10.
