The present invention provides a process for producing an aqueous dispersion of a polymer substance, wherein a mill is used as a mixing apparatus, the mill comprises a disk-type rotor serving as a rotational body and a stator serving as a non-rotational body, the rotor and the stator are disposed oppositely, a protrusion is formed on at least one of the opposed surfaces of the rotor and the stator, the rotor and the stator are disposed such that the distance therebetween becomes narrower, a polymer substance serving as a raw material which is melted in advance so as to assume a liquid state and an aqueous poval solution are fed to the narrow space in the mill, and the rotor is rotated at high speed, to thereby produce an aqueous dispersion. The process may provide downsized producing equipment while saving space and reducing equipment cost. |
