Abstract

In preparing a matte vinyl chloride polymer by suspension polymerizing a monomeric charge comprising monomeric vinyl chloride in an aqueous medium, polymerization is started in the presence of 0.05-0.25 part by weight of diallyl phthalate per 100 parts by weight of the monomeric charge, and polymerization is continued while adding 0.01-0.15 part by weight of 1,6-hexanediol di(meth)acrylate per 100 parts by weight of the monomeric charge when the rate of polymerization is in the range of 20-60%. There is produced a matte vinyl chloride-diallyl phthalate copolymer having a tetrahydrofuran-insoluble gel content of 0.5-2.5% by weight in a reproducible manner. A composition prepared by blending the copolymer with a plasticizer has minimized fish-eyes and improved matting effect.
