STABLE EMULSION POLYMERS AND METHODS OF PREPARING SAME

摘要

An improved process for producing stabilized core-shell latex emulsion adhesives is disclosed. In a process which comprises preparing a hydrophilic polymer and thereafter contacting the hydrophilic polymer with a hydrophobic monomer for producing an inverted core-shell latex emulsion, the improvement comprises the additional step of adjusting the pH of the inverted core-shell latex emulsion for dissolving the hydrophilic polymer, thereby to produce a stabilized latex emulsion adhesive.
