Novel low molecular weight interpolymers containing pendant lower alkyl capped poly(oxyethylene)ether groups are effective as aqueous dispersing agents for particulate matter and are particularly effective for difficult-to-disperse, finely divided inorganic solids such as precipitated calcium carbonate and satin white. The interpolymers comprise, in polymerized form, (1) an alkenyl benzyl ether of an ethoxylated lower alkane compound, which ether has the formula: <IMAGE> (wherein R is hydrogen or methyl, R1 is lower alkyl and m is a positive integer greater than 1) with (2) a copolymerizable ethylenically unsaturated acid such as acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, etc., or a copolymerizable ethylenically unsaturated dicarboxylic anhydride such as maleic anhydride and (3) a hydrophobic monomer such as styrene.
