Excess 1,3-butadiene was removed by injecting 2 bar of nitrogen into the dispersion, with stirring, after cooling the dispersion to 68° C., then releasing the dispersion from pressure and applying a slight underpressure (750 mbar absolute), and repeating this procedure in automated form about 1500 times. After 4 hours, a dispersion was obtained which had a solids content of 51.3% by weight, a pH of 4.8, and residual monomer contents of 1845 ppm of styrene and 280 ppm of acrylic acid.
