Preparation of aqueous polymer dispersions of low viscosity with polymer volume concentrations of at least 50%

摘要

Production of aqueous polymer dispersions with low viscosity and a polymer volume concentration NOTLESS 50 vol.% comprises free radical emulsion polymerisation of ethylenically unsaturated monomers, except vinylidene halides, in the presence of initiator(s) and a starting polymer. Most of the monomers are emulsified in an aqueous dispersion of the starting polymer and this emulsion is transferred continuously to the polymerisation reaction.
