COMPOSITION CONTAINING ASSOCIATIVE RHEOLOGY MODIFIER AND POLYMER ENCAPSULATED PIGMENT PARTICLES

摘要

Abstract The present invention relates to a composition comprising an associative thickener, a binder, polymer encapsulated opacifying pigment particles, and water. The composition of the present invention shows an improvement in opacity and S/mil in the Kubelka-Munk test method, over similar compositions that do 5 not include polymer encapsulated opacifying pigment particles.
