Abstract

See full text

The present invention provides a detergent builder and a production process therefor, which detergent builder comprises a polymer that has a narrow molecular weight distribution and is excellent both in the gelation resistance and the chelating ability, and further, the invention provides a polymer which is favorably used also for purposes other than detergent builders. The detergent builder comprises a poly(meth)acrylic acid (or salt) polymer which gives a product of 18,000 or more from the gelation resistance and the chelating ability. To produce this detergent builder, the ratio by weight of (total amount of monomer component, chain transfer agent, and polymerization initiator) to (total amount of aqueous medium) is set in the range of 46:54.about.66:34, and 10% or more of the aqueous medium and 0.about.50% (preferably 1.about.50%) of the chain transfer agent are beforehand charged into a reactor, and the polymerization is carried out at a reaction temperature of 50.about.120 .degree. C. while 70% or more of the monomer component, 50% or more (preferably 50.about.99%) of the chain transfer agent, and 80% or more of the polymerization initiator are gradually supplied to the reaction system having a temperature of 50.about.120 .degree. C.
