There is provided a dispersion stabilizer for suspension polymerization of a vinyl compound, which is composed of an aqueous emulsion, wherein the aqueous emulsion comprises a solid comprising (A) a polyvinyl alcohol, (B) a polyvinyl ester, and (C) a graft polymer produced by graft-polymerizing a vinyl ester monomer to a polyvinyl alcohol; wherein the amount of (A) the polyvinyl alcohol is 0.1 to 18 % by mass based on the total amount of (A), (B) and (C); wherein the amount of (C) the graft polymer is 7 to 80 % by mass based on the total amount of (A), (B) and (C); and wherein a weight-average molecular weight of the solid as determined by gel permeation chromatography is 1,100,000 or less. Such a dispersion stabilizer for suspension polymerization exhibits excellent polymerization stability and excellent handleability. In addition, a vinyl resin obtained using the dispersion stabilizer for suspension polymerization has good plasticizer absorbency. |
