Vinyl acetate/ethylene emulsion stabilized with a phosphate surfactant

摘要

The present invention is directed to a vinyl acetate-ethylene polymer dispersion containing a vinyl acetate-ethylene polymer, a phosphate-functional surfactant, and a protective colloid. The invention is also directed to an aqueous coating composition having at least 65 percent by volume of pigment, on a dry solids volume basis and up to up to 25 percent by weight of the vinyl acetate-ethylene binder The binder can be used to produce a high pigment volume concentration (PVC) coating, at low cost.
