Polymerisat mit Kohlenwasserstoffwachs und deren Verwendung

摘要

The invention relates to the use of a polymer obtained by emulsion or suspension polymerisation of an ethylenically unsaturated monomer or mixture of more than one such a monomer in the presence of a hydrocarbon wax having a melting point of 25 to 125 DEG C which is incorporated in the polymer during polymerization as a coating material for imparting or improving hydrophobicity and/or moisture vapour resistance of an substrate of the group comprising organic materials and metal. Also the invention provides a process for imparting or improving hydrophobicity and/or moisture vapour resistance of an organic substrate by coating the substrate with a polymer obtained by emulsion or suspension polymerisation. Also the invention provides certain polymeric materials which are useful for the above identified purpose.
