Method for producing polymer

Abstract

A method for producing a polymer according to the present invention is a method for producing a polymer having at least two peaks in a molecular weight distribution curve of the polymer obtained by measurement of molecular weight by GPC, and comprising a conjugated diene-based polymer or a copolymer of an aromatic vinyl compound and a diene-based compound, the method using a reaction apparatus comprising two or more continuous polymerization reactors connected in series, and comprising introducing a monomer component and a polymerization initiator into a first reactor for a polymerization reaction, and then adding the monomer component and the polymerization initiator before each of the second and subsequent reactors for polymerization, a weight average molecular weight of a polymer (A) obtained in the first reactor being 300,000 to 2,000,000.
