Abstract
Provided is a vinyl chloride polymer production process comprising the steps of polymerizing in an aqueous medium a vinyl chloride monomer alone or a mixture of monomers including the vinyl chloride monomer, and adding an antioxidant to starting materials or a polymerization reaction mixture. As the antioxidant, a mixed antioxidant comprised of an antioxidant A which is liquid at 20° C. and an antioxidant B which is powdery at 20° C. is used. This process is well operable, enables polymerization to be sufficiently terminated using an antioxidant in a small quantity and enables production of vinyl chloride polymers having less uneven plasticizer absorption and having both good anti-initial-discoloration properties and good thermal stability.
