Vulcanizates with desirable properties can be obtained from compounds incorporating polymers that include hydroxyl group-containing aryl functionalities. The functionalities can be incorporated by using any or all of appropriate initiators, monomers and optional terminating compounds. Such polymers exhibit excellent interactivity with both conventional and non-conventional fillers.

The present invention relates to a vinyl chloride-based polymer showing high viscosity properties in a low shear region and showing viscosity and stress decreasing properties in line with the increase of a shear rate, a method for preparing the same, and a plastisol comprising the same. Since the vinyl chloride-based polymer comprises a saponified emulsifier in a specific ratio, high viscosity properties may be shown in a low shear region, and Bingham fluid flow properties may be shown, by which viscosity and stress decrease in line with the increase of a shear rate.

Provided are a novel structure of a copolymer, a preparation method thereof, a vinyl chloride-based resin composition including the copolymer, and a coating ink including the vinyl chloride-based resin composition. According to the present invention, when the vinyl chloride-based resin composition including the copolymer is used, compatibility with ethylene vinyl acetate is excellent, and ink dispersibility and ink color are also excellent.
