Polymerization of the monomer was investigated in organic solvents such as nitro‐compounds, amines, amides, nitriles, ethers, esters, ketones, aldehydes, acids, anhydrides, and some heterocyclic compounds. Crystalline polyvinylchloride was produced in aliphatic aldehyde media at temperatures ranging from 0° to 60°C and highly crystalline polyvinylchloride was synthesized in the presence of preliminarily oxidized butyric aldehyde. The electron diffraction picture of the non‐oriented specimen of the polymer exhibited 19 distinct reflexes.
