<p>An emulsion or suspension polymer comprising a vinyl chloride polymeric core and an acrylic ester-acrylonitrile polymeric shell is disclosed. The emulsion polymer is preferably prepared using a two-stage process. In the first stage, a vinyl chloride monomer is polymerized or copolymerized to form a first phase of a polymeric hard core having a relatively high chlorine content. In a second stage, the soft acrylic ester-acrylonitrile copolymer is made in situ in a reaction mixture comprising the first phase. The product provides both flame retardancy and low MFFT, and is useful in a variety of coating and binding applications.</p> |
