Catalyst for bulk polymerization

摘要

A catalyst for bulk polymerization comprising an organometallic compound represented by specified formula and a thiol is provided. The specified organometallic compound is a metallocene compound such as titanocene or zirconocene. The use of this bulk polymerization catalyst comprising a metallocene compound and a thiol enables stable bulk polymerization of a polymerizable unsaturated compound such as an acrylic monomer, the reaction control of which has been difficult in the bulk polymerization of the prior art.
