SMAA resin was produced by the same apparatus as used in Example 1 while methacrylic acid was fed so that the content of methacrylic acid in the SMAA resin formed in each polymerization vessel became 20% by weight. Specifically, a mixture composed of 70.8% by weight of styrene, 9.4% by weight of methacrylic acid and 20% by weight of ethylbenzene was fed continuously at a speed of 10 kg/hour into the first polymerization vessel kept at 139° C. Then, while the polymerization vessel which overflowed from the first polymerization vessel was conveyed to the second polymerization vessel maintained at 139° C, a mixture composed of 50% by weight of methacrylic acid and 50% by weight of ethylbenzene was continuously fed into the second polymerization vessel at a speed of 360 g/hour. Then, while the polymerization solution which overflowed from the second polymerization vessel was conveyed to the third polymerization vessel, a mixture composed of 50% by weight of methacrylic acid and 50% by weight of ethylbenzene was continuously fed into the third polymerization vessel. Then, water (2% by weight) was added to the polymerization solution which overflowed from the third polymerization vessel. The mixture was heated to 250° C by the preheater, and continuously fed into the solvent removing vessel maintained at 250° C and 20 torr to remove the solvent, and obtain styrene/methacrylic acid copolymer at a rate of 5 kg/ hour.
