Process for producing a degassed polymer powder, by a) feeding i) a principal monomer, and ii) one or more comonomers in an amount of at least 5000 ppmw relative to the principal monomer feed rate, and iii) optionally an added alkane having 2 to 10 carbon atoms, fed in an amount of at least 1000 ppmw relative to the principal monomer feed rate; into a polymerization reactor. The monomer and comonomers react to form a polymer including residual hydrocarbons having one or more hydrocarbons with 3 to 10 carbon atoms, and b) passing the polymer to a degassing step where it is contacted with a purge gas to remove some of the residual hydrocarbons. |
