By suspension polymerization vinylidene chloride polymkeric substance and vinyl chloride-base polymer is known in the art.Except this paper point out especially, polymerizing condition (for example, temperature and stirring) is a condition commonly used in vinylidene chloride or the chloroethylene polymerization.Advantageously, in preparation during water, before initiator, softening agent and other suitable additive (as sequestrant and antioxidant) add, in reactor, add about 3/4 required water of polymerization.The addition sequence of water component helps to keep the polymerization that monomer is scattered in the suspension system in the water.
Usually, when monomer is added to water (monomer is scattered in water), with mixture stir and basic oxygen free condition under be heated to 25 ℃ to 95 ℃ temperature and continue enough for some time so that the required monomer transformation efficiency to polymkeric substance to be provided.Monomer to the transformation efficiency of polymkeric substance usually at 50-99%.
After polymerization is finished, formed the aqueous-phase suspending body or the slurry of polymkeric substance or multipolymer.Do not contain monomeric slurry in order to form, preferably at first by with reactor emptying to normal pressure reactor heating to 95 ℃ and residual monomer is removed simultaneously.Then slurry is transferred in batches in the stripping tower at 90 ℃ the residual monomer coupling vacuum stripping.The emptying reactor, with the slurry mechanical transmission during stripping tower and the coupling vacuum stripping residual monomer, suspension agent that still exists in solution and tensio-active agent have increased foamy and have formed and make foam stabilizationization by surperficial pectisation.The foam of this stabilization is brought resin clip susceptor (knockout pot) into, is transferred pipeline and reject dump just.
Surprisingly, found before removing residual monomer, at least a inorganic acid salt to be added in the polymer slurries, can suppress foamy and form.Although do not trend towards making an explanation theoretically, think that inorganic acid salt has reduced the gelation temperature of suspension agent, this makes suspension agent produce sedimentation, makes it to increase foamy and forms and the stabilization foam." gelation temperature " is described in article " hot glue of methyl and Vltra tears coagulates performance ", author N.Sarkar, Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Vol.24,1073-1087 (1979).
