Abstract: A process for efficiently producing an agglomerate resulting from removal of impurities from a water-base latex of rubbery polymer particles or dry Powder thereof and producing a dispersion having rubbery polymer particles dispersed in an organic solvent, and a process for efficiently producing a resin composition of low impurity content, in which the state of dispersion of rubbery polymer particles is excellent, from the above dispersion. In particular, a rubbery polymer particle agglomerate of low impurity content is obtained by first mixing a water-base latex of rubbery polymer particles with an organic solvent exhibiting partial solubility in water, bringing the resultant mixture into contact with water to thereby form a rubbery polymer particle agglomerate, and thereafter separating the water phase from the agglomerate/water phase mixture.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a simple method for efficiently producing aromatic-substituted chlorinated hydrocarbons, for example, high-purity cumyl chloride (1,4-bis(1-chloro-1-methylethyl)benzene, p-DCC) that can be used as an initiator for cationic polymerization. A corresponding tertiary alcohol such as 1,4-bis(1-hydroxy-1-methylethyl)benzene is mixed with aqueous hydrochloric acid and subjected to stirring, and then the resulting organic layer is brought into contact with a hydrogen chloride gas to produce high-quality aromatic-substituted chlorinated hydrocarbon in high yield. Furthermore, in order to purify a mixture containing a chlorinated hydrocarbon compound, the mixture being produced by reaction between an aqueous solution of a metal hypochiorite and a protonic acid, the mixture is allowed to react with an aqueous alkaline solution to form an alcohol compound. Then, a solid is isolated by solid-liquid separation and chlorinated again with the aqueous hydrochloric acid.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a simple method for efficiently producing aromatic-substituted chlorinated hydrocarbons, for example, high-purity cumyl chloride (1,4-bis(2-chloro-2-propyl)benzene, p-DCC) that can be used as an initiator for cationic polymerization.

Abstract: The present invention has for its object to produce an isobutylene polymer having excellent performance characteristics by suppressing side reactions at the polymer growth termini during polymerization. The process of the present invention is to carry out a cationic polymerization of a monomer component containing isobutylene in the presence of a polymerization initiator, a catalyst, an ether compound, and an electron donor. Moreover, the process is to carry out a cationic polymerization of a monomer component containing isobutylene in the presence of a polymerization initiator, a catalyst, an ether compound, and an electron donor, and add a compound having the carbon-carbon unsaturated bond for introducing the carbon-carbon unsaturated bond into the polymer terminus.
