Polymethacrylate molding compound with increased heat resistance and increased thermal degradation stability

摘要

The invention relates to a polymerisation process for the preparation of polymethacrylate moulding compositions having a high heat deflection temperature (heat resistance) and high stability to thermal degradation, in which at least 70% by weight of the polymethacrylate moulding composition is prepared at a monomer concentration of at least 5 mol per litre of reaction mixture, which preferably contains the monomers, the polymer formed therefrom and further polymerization auxiliaries. The reaction is preferably carried out batchwise (discontinuously), for example in a stirred reactor operated in batch mode.
