POLYMERISERINGSFOERFARANDE FOER VINYLKLORID.

摘要

Process for the polymerization of vinyl chloride in aqueous suspension or microsuspension using an organo-soluble free-radical-yielding initiator wherein the initiator is progressively activated during polymerization by the progressive reduction of a non-initiator-activating water-soluble metal chelate complex to an initiator-activating form of the complex (which is otherwise substantially stable under the polymerization conditions) in which the metal is in a lower oxidation state, preferably a one- or two lower oxidation state.
