PROTEIN STABILIZED LATEX POLYMER EMULSIONS, METHOD OF MAKING, AND ADHESIVES CONTAINING SUCH EMULSIONS

摘要

A method of forming a stable latex polymer emulsion is provided which includes mixing one or more monomers including polymerizable acid monomers, esters, and unsaturated monomers with water and a soy protein. The emulsion is then polymerized and may be formed into adhesive compositions having improved water resistance and mechanical strength.
