Abstract
The polymerization of a monomer component that comprises vinyl chloride in an aqueous medium in the presence of a free radical generating polymerization initiator is terminated by introducing into the polymerization reaction mixture when from 70% to 95% of the monomer component has been polymerized from 0.01% to 0.10% by weight, based on the weight of the monomer component, of a chain-terminating agent that is a dialkylhydroxyphenylalkanoic acid ester of a neopentyl polyhydric alcohol, such as pentaerythritol tetrakis-[3-(3,5-di-tert.butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)propionate].
