Abstract
A polymerization process, in which when at least one of fluorine-containing olefin monomers in gaseous phase or supercritical phase or a monomer mixture of the fluorine-containing olefin monomer and other monomer copolymerizable therewith is subjected to batch polymerization in an aqueous medium while being diffused to the aqueous medium, a diffusing amount of the monomer or monomer mixture to the aqueous medium is not less than 80% of the theoretical consumption of the monomer or monomer mixture when polymerized at the theoretical polymerization rate. According to the present invention, a polymerization rate is determined by the polymerization reaction but not by the diffusion of monomer gas, and thus higher polymerization rate can be achieved.
