Procedure

A terpolymer containing 60.3 percent ethylene, 38 weight percent vinyl acetate, and 1.7 percent maleic anhydride, and displaying a melt index of 220 g./10 min. was prepared at the rate of 0.68 kg./hr. in a continuous 0.72-liter stirred autoclave by the following procedure. Monomers were mixed, pressured to 1900 kg./sq. cm., and fed at these rates:
