Abstract: Provided is a monodisperse polymer of chloromethylstyrene as a bifunctional compound. Chloromethylstyrene is purified to a purity of at least 99% and polymerized preferably using a RAFT reagent.

Abstract: To provide a process for producing a transparent electrode comprising a tin oxide film which can readily be patterned, which can be realized at a low cost, and which has low resistivity and is excellent in transparency. A process for producing a transparent electrode having a patterned tin oxide film formed on a substrate, which comprises a step of forming a tin oxide film having light absorption characteristics on a substrate, a patterning step of removing part of the tin oxide film having light absorption characteristics, and a step of subjecting the patterned tin oxide film having light absorption characteristics to heat treatment to obtain a tin oxide film.

Abstract: A method for evaluating the quality of abrasive grains for polishing glass, which comprises adding abrasive grains to be measured, to an aqueous medium having silica dissolved therein, to have the silica adsorbed on the abrasive grains under such a condition that the silica undergoes substantially no polymerization in the aqueous medium, followed by solid-liquid separation to separate the abrasive grains from the mother liquor, and measuring the concentration of silica remaining in the mother liquor to measure the adsorption rate (?) of silica on the abrasive grains.
