Abstract
Provided is a method of preparing styrene polymers, the method comprising: homogeneously mixing a styrene monomer; a cocatalyst mixture of Group 13 metal-containing organic metal compound cocatalyst and an inert organic solvent; and a catalyst mixture of a metallocene catalyst and the inert organic solvent using a high speed homogenizing mixer to obtain a homogenized mixture; and providing the homogenized mixture to a reactor to initiate polymerization. In this method, catalyst is quickly dispersed among monomers using a high speed homogenizing mixer so that formation of gel, which occurs when a syndiotactic styrene polymer is produced, can be fundamentally prevented. In addition, a styrene polymer prepared using the method has high activity, good stereoregularity, and uniform molecular distribution.
