METHOD FOR PRODUCING (METH)ACRYLIC RESIN COMPOSITION

A (meth)acrylic resin composition is obtained by a method comprising: continuously feeding a raw material solution essentially comprising methyl methacrylate, a chain transfer agent and a radical polymerization initiator, and optionally comprising an acrylic acid alkyl ester in a mass ratio of the acrylic acid alkyl ester to the methyl methacrylate of 0/100 to 20/80 into a tank reactor (1) to allow bulk polymerization to proceed in the tank reactor at a polymerization conversion ratio of 40 to 70% by mass to obtain a reaction product while continuously discharging the reaction product from the tank reactor; heating the discharged reaction product with a heat exchanger; removing volatile matter from the heated reaction product; filtrating a liquid additive through a filter (5); and adding the filtrated liquid additive to the reaction product from which the volatile matter has been removed.
