This invention provides the composition, preparation, and end-use of waterborne cross-linking technology based compositions prepared from water-based latexes. The invention provides a water-based latex comprising dispersed, waterborne amino-functional polymer particles; dispersed, waterborne pendant-functional polymer particles; and water. The waterborne pendant-functional polymer comprises at least one pendant amine reactive functional moiety selected from the group consisting of carbonate, epoxide, isocyanate, isopropenyl, carboxylic acid, and allyl groups. In a preferred embodiment, a latex of the invention comprises dispersed, waterborne polymeric (polyamino)enamine (PPAE) particles; dispersed, waterborne pendant-functional polymer particles; and water. The PPAE is the reaction product of a surfactant-stabilized acetoacetoxy-functional polymer (SAAP) and a poly(alkylenimine). The water-based latexes of the invention provide stable emulsions containing a blend of waterborne polymer particles which undergo cross-linking upon film formation. The latex films or coatings may be cured at ambient temperatures or may be thermally cured. The latex is useful in variety of coating compositions such as, for example, paints, inks, sealants, and adhesives.
