Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a reaction vessel provided with a stirrer and a thermometer, 683 parts by mass of water, 11 parts by mass of sodium salt of the sulfuric acid ester of methacrylic acid ethylene oxide adduct (ELEMINOL RS-30, manufactured by Sanyo Chemical Industries. Ltd.), 80 parts by mass of styrene, 83 parts by mass of methacrylic acid, 110 parts by mass of butyl acrylate, 12 parts by mass of butyl thioglycollate, and 1 part by mass of ammonium persulphate were poured, and stirred at 400 rpm for 15 minutes to obtain a white emulsion. The white emulsion was heated, the temperature in the system was raised to 75° C. and the reaction was performed for 5 hours. Next, 30 parts by mass of an aqueous solution of 1% by mass ammonium persulphate was added, and the reaction mixture was matured at 75° C. for 5 hours to obtain an aqueous dispersion liquid of a vinyl resin (copolymer of styrene-methacrylic acid-butyl acrylate-sodium salt of the sulfuric acid ester of methacrylic acid ethylene oxide adduct). This aqueous solution was taken as particulate emulsion 1. The volume average particle diameter of particulate emulsion 1 measured by a laser diffraction particle size distribution analyzer (LA-920, manufactured by SHIMADZU Corp.) was 120 nm. After drying part of particulate emulsion 1 and isolating the resin, the glass transition temperature (Tg) of the resin was 72° C. and the mass average molecular mass was 30,000.
