Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention relates to a graft copolymer and a method for preparing the same, wherein the graft copolymer has merits of a superior storage convenience compared to existing dry powder and a high whiteness index, and thus may be widely applied to various fields.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for preparing a graft copolymer pellet formed of a graft copolymer, the method comprising: (S1) polymerizing a conjugate diene-based polymer or an acrylate-based polymer with one or more among a vinylcyan-based monomer and an aromatic vinyl-based monomer to obtain a reaction product including a graft copolymer; and (S2) forming the reaction product in the form of a pellet through an extruder, wherein the reaction product comprises a dispersion medium including water, and wherein the extruder includes a barrel, a screw mounted inside the barrel, a ventilation part for discharging steam, and a heater part for heating the barrel, a hopper is coupled to one side of the barrel, and a discharge port for discharging the reaction product is on another side of the barrel, the screw has a plurality of forward zones alternating with a plurality of kneading zones, and the forward zones have forward direction threads, and the kneading zones have neutral-type threads or reverse direction threads. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the pellet has a bulk density of 450 kg/m 3 to 700 kg/m 3 . 3. The method of claim 1 , comprising (S-1) adjusting a percentage of water content to be less than 30% before step S2, wherein the extruder comprises a side ventilation part. 4. The method of claim 1 , comprising (S1-2) adjusting a percentage of water content to be 30% to 60% before step S2, wherein the extruder comprises two or more side slots.
