  • Patent number: 10626208
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a vinyl chloride-based copolymer which has good processability and thus is capable of providing molded articles having good appearance characteristics, for example, transparency, a method for preparing the same, a thermoplastic resin composition containing the same, and a thermoplastic resin molded article produced from the thermoplastic resin composition. The vinyl chloride-based copolymer includes N-vinyllactam-based polymer compound derived units and unsaturated fatty acid ester derived units at an appropriate ratio, and may have improved structure stability and good processability due to the N-vinyllactam-based polymer compound derived units and improved plasticity and processability due to the internal plasticizer action of the unsaturated fatty acid ester derived units. Therefore, the vinyl chloride-based copolymer according to the present invention may be easily applied in industries that need thereof.

  • Patent number: 10287377
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of preparing a vinyl chloride-based copolymer having excellent plasticity and processability, a vinyl chloride-based copolymer prepared thereby, a thermoplastic resin composition including the vinyl chloride-based copolymer, and a thermoplastic resin molded article prepared from the composition. Since the preparation method may improve copolymerizability with a vinyl chloride-based monomer by continuously adding or dividedly adding an unsaturated fatty acid ester mixture used as a comonomer during the time of specific polymerization conversion rate, the unreacted unsaturated fatty acid ester mixture may be reduced, and, as a result, the conversion rate of the vinyl chloride-based copolymer may be significantly improved. Thus, plasticity and processability of a vinyl chloride-based copolymer prepared by the above method may be significantly improved.
