摘要:
The invention provides a process for producing a carboxyl-containing polymer composition that allows the possibility of obtaining a carboxyl-containing polymer composition which exhibits excellent dispersibility in water or the like, has a viscosity increasing to a lower degree compared to the viscosity of a neutralized viscous liquid using an additive-free carboxyl-containing polymer, and has a high degree of transparency in a neutralized viscous liquid thereof. A carboxyl-containing polymer composition is obtained by polymerizing a monomer containing an α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid as a main component in a presence of a polyol (iso)stearic acid ester. A polyol in the polyol (iso)stearic acid ester is a polyol selected from a specific group, and the polyol (iso)stearic acid ester is used in the polymerization in an amount of 0.2 to 7 parts by mass based on 100 parts by mass of the α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid.

[Problems] To provide a carboxyl group-containing polymer composition having excellent dispersibility in water or the like, and a neutralized viscous liquid of which has a low viscosity and high transparency. [Solving Means] A carboxyl group-containing polymer composition containing at least one compound selected from the group consisting of (1) a fatty acid A and (2) a fatty acid ester formed between a fatty acid B and a monohydric alcohol having 1 to 22 carbon atoms, in an amount of from 0.05 to 5 parts by mass, based on 100 parts by mass of a carboxyl group-containing polymer, wherein the carboxyl group-containing polymer is obtainable by copolymerizing an α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid and a compound having two or more ethylenically unsaturated groups.
