Abstract

AbstractSuspension polymerization of vinyl chloride was studied using five organic peroxides which show similar polyerization rates. Initial coloring of polymers obtained depended on the kinds of peroxides and the amount of peroxides used. Initial coloring of PVC had no relation to water solubility of the peroxides, but depended greatly on their susceptibility to hydroysis. Organic peroxides with susceptibility to hydrolysis remained low in the polymer, and yielded PVC showing preferable initial coloring.
