A process for producing a high impact polystyrene having a high swell index including feeding at least one vinyl aromatic monomer and at least one elastomer to at least one polymerization reactor to form a reaction mixture, polymerizing the reaction mixture, combining a chain transfer agent to the reaction mixture leaving the at least one polymerization reactor to form a combined mixture, sending the combined mixture to a devolatilization zone and obtaining a HIPS product having a high swell index. |
