ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for producing a vinyl chloride-based polymer which comprises a polymerization vessel for carrying out suspension polymerization of a monomeric material containing at least vinyl chloride dispersed in an aqueous suspension, and a circulating passage extended from said polymerization vessel and through a heat exchanger back to said polymerization vessel for circulating a polymerization reaction mixture, wherein the polymerization reaction mixture returning from said circulating passage into said polymerization vessel is sprayed inside the polymerization vessel so that the inside wall portion of said polymerization vessel in a gas-phase zone is entirely wetted with the polymerization reaction mixture. Because the inside wall of the polymerization vessel in an area ranging from a gas-phase zone to a gas-liquid interface portion is constantly kept wetted with the polymerization reaction mixture (aqueous suspension) returning into the polymerization vessel, the problems of stagnation of the polymerization reaction mixture on the inside wall and deposition of polymer slurry on the inside wall can be obviated effectively. As a result, polymer scale deposition on the inside wall of the polymerization vessel in the area ranging from the gas-phase zone to the gas-liquid interface portion can be effectively prevented.
