Abstract

A polymer scale preventive process for use in polymerization of a monomer having an ethylenically unsaturated double bond, comprising (A) a water-soluble basic polysaccharide and (B) a phenothiazine. The process is used for forming a coating on the inner wall, etc. of a polymerization vessel, and highly safe for operators. Deposition of polymer scale can be effectively prevented, and polymeric product with high whiteness or a low initial coloration is obtained.
