Abstract: The present invention aims to provide an acrylic copolymer capable of maintaining excellent storage stability in the uncrosslinked state even after long-term exposure to high temperatures, and a crosslinked acrylic rubber product produced from the acrylic copolymer which maintains good normal-state properties and good water resistance. The present invention is based on the finding that an acrylic copolymer produced by polymerizing a liquid mixture of an alkoxyalkyl (meth)acrylate containing an alkoxyalkyl group and a crosslinkable monomer containing a carboxy group has excellent storage stability and that a crosslinked product produced from the acrylic copolymer has good normal-state properties and good water resistance.

Abstract: Provided is a binder for a battery electrode, the binder having superior binding properties and being capable of effectively decreasing the internal resistance of a battery while still being usable as an aqueous binder with low environmental burden. A binder for a battery electrode according to the present invention has a core shell structure of a core section (A) containing a copolymer the principal constituent of which is methyl methacrylate and a shell section (B) having a (meth)acrylate-based copolymer containing (meth)acrylate as a polymerization component, wherein the swelling ratios with respect to a mixed solvent in which ethylene carbonate and diethyl carbonate are mixed at a volume ratio of 3:7 are 10% or less for the resin constituting the core section (A) and 30% or more for the resin constituting the shell section (B).

Abstract: Provided is an acrylic rubber composition having further improved compression set resistance and comprising, based on 100 parts by mass of (a1) an acrylic rubber obtained by copolymerizing 0.1 to 10% by mass of a crosslinkable group-containing monomer, (a2) 0.4 to 50.0% by mass of a liquid fluororubber, and the crosslinked product thereof.
