Abstract

An improved process for producing an aqueous emulsion of a vinyl chloride/vinyl ester/ethylene copolymer having a small heat fluidity and excellent strength which comprises continuously adding a solution of a specific polybasic acid polyallyl ester in the vinyl chloride and/or vinyl ester and further at least 60% by weight of the vinyl chloride and vinyl ester to the polymerization system during the polymerization reaction. The copolymer thus produced has a large benzene-insoluble part and the aqueous emulsion thereof is stable and is useful as an adhesive, as for paint compositions, or as a binder for fibers and papers.
