<p>A process for preparing polymer-encapsulated dispersed non-monomer solids, such as, polymer-encapsulated pigments. Water, a pigment, a nonionic protective colloid or stabilizing agent, and a portion of a nonionic monomer having at least one monovalent unsaturated organo moiety are admixed. The pigment has a minimum of surface charge. A nonionic polymerization initiator is added to the admixture and the admixture is heated to begin the polymerization of the nonionic monomer. A nonionic catalyst and the remainder of the nonionic monomer are added to the admixture. The polymerization is allowed to proceed to finality or the desired degree. A polymer-encapsulated pigment dispersion is obtained.</p> |
