Abstract
An improvement is proposed in the process of suspension polymerizatiopn of vinyl chloride monomer in an aqueous polymerization medium, by which a resin product of high quality relative to the contents of foamy resin and fish-eyes can be produced in a high efficiency with little deposition of polymer scale on the reactor walls. The improvment comprises heating and keeping the surfaces of the polymerization reactor and accessory equipment coming into contact with the gaseous phase above the polymerization mixture at a temperature of 55.degree. C. or higher during a period starting from a moment when the temperature of the polymerization mixture under temperature elevation up to the polymerization temperature is still 45.degree. C. or lower to a moment when conversion of the monomer into polymer is at least 10% so that foaming on the polymerization mixture can be greatly reduced.
