The present invention provides a process for preparing thermoplastic resin compositions having excellent HCFC resistance which comprises: a first step wherein 50 to 90 parts by weight of a monomer mixture of 50 to 80% by weight of a vinyl cyanide, 20 to 50% by weight of an aromatic vinyl compound and 5% by weight or less of an unsaturated carboxylic acid or esters thereof or a vinyl acetate are graft-polymerized in the presence of 10 to 50 parts by weight of a rubber latex and also in the presence of 0.001 to 2.0 parts by weight of a polymerization inhibitor to prepare a graft polymer(A); a second step wherein 100 parts by weight of a monomer mixture of 50 to 80% by weight of a vinyl cyanide, 20 to 50% by weight of an aromatic vinyl compound and 5% by weight or less of an unsaturated carboxylic acid or esters thereof are polymerized, while adding 2.0 parts by weight or less of a polymerization inhibitor to the mixture, to prepare a SAN copolymer(B); and a third step wherein the graft polymer(A) is mixed with the SAN copolymer(B) to form the composition wherein the rubber content in the composition falls within the range of 10 to 30% by weight of the composition. Also the thermoplastic resin composition can be provided by mixing the graft polymer(A) with a SAN copolymer(C) consisting of 25 to 40% by weight of a vinyl cyanide and 60 to 75% by weight of an aromatic vinyl compound to form the composition wherein the rubber content in the composition falls within the range of 10 to 30% by weight.
