Abstract
The invention provides an improvement in the suspension polymerization of vinyl chloride in an aqueous medium in the presence of a monomer-soluble polymerization initiator, according to which the amount of polymer scale deposition on the reactor walls can be greatly decreased. The improvement comprises admixing the aqueous polymerization medium with (a) a water-soluble crosslinked copolymer of an unsaturated carboxylic acid monomer, e.g. acrylic acid, and a crosslinking monomer such as di(methyl)allyl ether of diethyleneglycol and (b) a non-ionic surface active agent in combination.
