Claims
- 1. A polymer scale preventive agent for use in polymerization of a monomer having an ethylenically unsaturated double bond, consisting of an alkaline solution of pH 9 to 14 of:
- (A) a condensation product consisting of
- (A-1) a hydroxynaphthalene compound (1):
- having the following general formula ##STR4## wherein R.sup.1 group or groups, which may be the same or different from each other, are each a member selected from the group consisting of --H, --SO.sub.3 H and --COOH, i is an integer from 1 to 4, and j is an integer from 0 to 4, and
- (A-2) at least one aldehyde compound selected from the group consisting of the compounds of the following general formulas (2) and 4):
- R.sup.2 --CHO (2)
- wherein R.sup.2 is --H, --COOH, --CHO or an alkyl group of from 1 to 5 carbon atoms; ##STR5## wherein R.sup.3 group or groups, which may be the same or different from each other, are each a member selected from the group selected from the group consisting of --H and --OH, and m is an integer from 1 to 6; and ##STR6## wherein R.sup.4 is a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group of 1 to 5 carbon atoms, and, where plural R.sup.4 's are present, they may be the same or different, and n is an integer from 1 to 4,
- (B) an inorganic colloid of silica, an oxide, a hydroxide or a mixture of two or three thereof, said oxide and hydroxide being those of a metal selected from the group consisting of aluminum, titanium, zirconium, tin and iron, and
- (C) a water-soluble polymeric compound selected from the group consisting of gelatin, casein, polyacrylic acid, carboxymethyl cellulose, polyvinyl pyrrolidone and pectin, in a mixed solvent containing water and a organic solvent miscible with water, said organic solvent being present in an amount of not more than 50% by weight based on said mixed solvent.
- 2. The agent of claim 1, wherein the component (A-1) comprises at least one compound selected from the group consisting of 1-naphthol, 1,4-dihydroxynaphthalene, 1,2,3-trihydroxynaphthalene, 1,4,5,8-tetrahydroxynaphthalene, and 1-naphthol-4-sulfonic acid.
- 3. The agent of claim 1, wherein the component (A-2) comprises at least one compound selected from the group consisting of formaldehyde, glyoxylic acid, benzaldehyde, salicylaldehyde, and furfural.
- 4. The agent of claim 1, wherein the condensation product (A) is obtained by condensing the component (A-1) with the component (A-2), the amount of the component (A-2) being from 0.1 to 10 moles per 1 mole of the component (A-1).
- 5. The agent of claim 1, wherein the component (B) is present in an amount of from 0.1 to 1000 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the component (A).
- 6. The agent of claim 1, wherein the total concentration of the components (A) and (B) is from 0.005 to 10% by weight.
