    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a composition for termination, not only capable of effectively terminating a free radical polymerization reaction but also capable of imparting an improved stability to a rubber latex without providing bad effect to safety, health and environment. SOLUTION: This composition for termination contains at least one kind of hydrophilic radical scavenger (that is the terminator) and at least one kind of hydrophobic radical scavenger. Preferably, the composition targets the use in an emulsion process for a rubber latex. The composition exhibits excellent activities not only as the terminator of the free radical emulsion polymerization but also as the stabilizer for the corresponding polymer. Further, the composition can inhibit the additional polymerization even after stripping the polymer with steam without requiring the additional stabilizer. The composition can inhibit the polymerization without using chemicals having high risk on the safety, the health or the environment.
