WATER-BASED EMULSION POLYMERS WHICH RESIST BLOCKING

摘要

This invention relates to emulsion polymers which have an excellent combination of blocking resistance, water spotting resistance and ethanol spotting resistance. These polymers are made from a monomer mixture including a monomer with a highly polar group which includes either a carboxylated or sulfonated monomer, or both, a monomer having a hydrolyzable silicone group, and a nonfunctional monomer which can be selected to provide a desired minimum film formation temperature. These emulsions polymers are useful in paint and coatings applications.
