Abstract
Disclosed are an alkyl acrylate-aromatic vinyl compound-vinyl cyanide compound copolymer which is prepared using a polyalkylene cross-linking agent such as polyethylene glycol diacrylate or polyethylene glycol dimethacrylate for a core of the alkyl acrylate-aromatic vinyl compound-vinyl cyanide compound copolymer and thus advantageously improves low-temperature impact strength of resins when the copolymer is applied to a polycarbonate resin composition, and the polycarbonate resin composition comprising the copolymer.
