Methacrylic acid is an effective monomer for improving heat resistance, but
If the amount is less than 5 parts by weight, the effect will be small, and if it exceeds 40 parts by weight, processing and moldability will become extremely difficult. α-Methylstyrene is also an effective monomer for improving heat resistance, but if it is less than 25 parts by weight, its effect is small, and if it exceeds 80 parts by weight, processing and molding becomes difficult, and it contains a high α-methylstyrene content. Too much of the copolymer is not preferred because the polymerization conversion rate will not be sufficiently increased and this will be industrially disadvantageous.

Methylstyrene is difficult to polymerize. That is,
Polymerization of α-methylstyrene requires the coexistence of acrylonitrile, preferably 10 to 35 parts by weight. If the amount of acrylonitrile exceeds 35 parts by weight, the copolymer will be colored and its heat resistance will decrease, which is not preferable. Moreover, if it is less than 10 parts by weight, it is likely to be insufficient to promote the polymerization of α-methylstyrene.

The copolymer of the present invention can be obtained by a known emulsion polymerization method, suspension polymerization method, bulk polymerization method, or the like using the above-mentioned monomers. Copolymers obtained by emulsion polymerization are difficult to handle due to their small particle size, and require a coagulation process.
Furthermore, the emulsifier used in the polymerization process remains, reducing the transparency of the molded product. Therefore, it is preferable to produce the copolymer by a suspension polymerization method or a bulk polymerization method. In the emulsion polymerization method or the suspension polymerization method, known emulsifiers and dispersants are used. As the polymerization initiator, in the emulsion polymerization method, a known water-soluble initiator or redotsukunu system initiator can be used. In the suspension polymerization method or the bulk polymerization method, known oil-soluble initiators are used, and in particular, polyfunctional organic peroxides and/or azo compounds with a 10-hour half-life of 50 to 120°C are used. ,80'
By copolymerizing at c to 160, the polymerization time can be shortened and a copolymer with a high conversion rate can be obtained, which is extremely advantageous industrially. The polyfunctional organic peroxides mentioned here include di-t-butylperoxyhexahydroterephthalate, di-t-butylperoxy-5,6
, 5-trimethylcyclohexane, tris(1-butylperoxy)triazine, etc., and azo compounds include 1゜1'-azobis-cyclohexane carbonitrile, 2-phenylazo-2,4-dimethyl-

In addition, since methacrylic acid is water-soluble, the copolymer of the present invention can be produced by a bulk polymerization method or a bulk/suspension polymerization method in which the bulk polymerization is switched to suspension polymerization midway through the polymerization wastewater and methacrylic acid. This is advantageous in terms of polymerizability.
