Process for preparing a vinylidene chloride polymer latex

摘要

A process for preparing a seed latex of an epoxy-containing polymer by radical polymerization in aqueous emulsion of at least one epoxy-containing monomer and optionally at least one comonomer is disclosed. Also disclosed are a process for preparing a vinylidene chloride polymer latex either by radical polymerization in aqueous emulsion of vinylidene chloride and optionally at least one comonomer in the presence of the epoxy-containing polymer seed latex obtained by the process according to the invention; or by mixing the epoxy-containing polymer seed latex with a vinylidene chloride polymer latex obtained separately by radical polymerization in aqueous emulsion.
