Abstract
A dispersion stabilizer for suspension polymerization of a vinyl compound contains a modified saponified vinyl ester copolymer (A) having an ethylene content of 1 to 20 mol %, a degree of saponification of 90 mol % or more and a degree of polymerization of 100 to 3,000, a saponified vinyl ester polymer (B) having a degree of saponification of 60 to 90 mol % and a degree of polymerization of 600 to 4,000, and a saponified vinyl ester polymer (C) having a degree of saponification of 30 to 60 mol % and a degree of polymerization of 100 to 600, and in which a component (A)/{component (B)+component (C)} weight ratio if 5/95 to 40/60. The dispersion stabilizer for suspension polymerization of the vinyl compound exhibits quite excellent suspension polymerization stability. Further, the suspension polymerization of a vinyl compound using this dispersion stabilizer can produce a resin having a high bulk density minimizes the formation of milky turbid waste water.
