Reaction Steps

Styrene 123 g (1.18 moles), vinylbenzyl chloride 14 g (0.090 moles), divinyl benzene 30 g (0.225 moles), benzoyl peroxide 0.75 g, and 1.0 ml of mineral oil were added to 45 ml of warm water (80° C.) containing 4.5 g of soluble starch and stirred at 400 rpm at 80° C. for 24 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled and the white spherical polymer was screened through a fine mesh sieve (#100) and washed with organic solvents and water, and then dried overnight at 80° C. The polymer contained about 1.88% of chlorine.
