Abstract
Crystalline polychloroprene compositions comprise mercaptan-modified or xanthogen disulfide-modified 2-chloro-1,3-butadiene homopolymers having gel contents of 5-80 percent by weight. The polymers are prepared by free radical emulsion polymerization at a temperature of 5.degree.-20.degree. C. to a conversion of 70-95 percent in the presence of 2.5.times.10.sup.-4 -5.5.times.10.sup.-4 moles of mercaptan or xanthogen disulfide modifier per mole of 2-chloro-1,3-butadiene.
