摘要:
A latex based adhesive comprising a first component (adhesive component) comprising an interpolymer of at least one hard monomer, at least one soft monomer, and optionally a copolymerizable carboxylic acid comonomer having a Tg of from about -70.degree. C. to about -5.degree. C. and a second polymeric component (tackifier component) that is compatible with the adhesive component having a molecular weight less than 5,000 and a Tg from about -10.degree. C. to about 50.degree. C., both the adhesive component and tackifier component having been separately prepared by emulsion polymerization techniques.
摘要:
Multi-modal emulsions comprise a continuous oil phase and a discontinuous aqueous phase having two or more droplet size distributions and comprising a water-soluble polymer. Such emulsions are prepared by subjecting portions of the emulsion to varying rates of shear during emulsion formation. The multi-modal emulsions can have high polymer solids, reduced oil content, low bulk viscosity and high stability.
摘要:
Bimodal latexes having two separate and distinct particle size distributions have high solids content, good high shear rheology and good low shear viscosity. The large size polymer particles of the bimodal latex have a heterogeneous character. These bimodal latexes, e.g., styrene/butadiene/acrylic acid/itaconic acid latexes are employed in coating paper in conjunction with a mineral filler using a coating device such as a blade coater to yield high quality, glossy coatings which can be easily applied.

Aqueous copolymer latexes comprising colloidally dispersed, substantially spheroidal copolymer particles having a predominantly hydrophobic core portion and having a relatively hydrophilic polymeric portion which is preferentially oriented toward the outer surface thereof (e.g., a relatively hydrophilic shell portion) are prepared by (a) first emulsion polymerizing an initial monomer charge to form a first aqueous latex of a substantially linear, relatively hydrophilic polymer and (b) thereafter emulsion polymerizing a major proportion (e.g., from about 50 to about 95 parts by weight) of a second (and relatively more hydrophobic) monomer charge in the presence of a minor proportion (e.g., from about 5 to about 50 parts by weight on a polymer solids basis) of said first, relatively hydrophilic polymer latex.
摘要:
A process for preparing a sheet with improved stiffness by mixing a fiber, a latex having minimum film forming conditions greater than the conditions the sheet reaches during drying and a fugitive coalescing agent. The mixture is collected and dried under conditions less than the minimum film forming conditions of the latex. The process enables hard latexes to be employed which do not form films under the drying conditions of the sheet whereby the hard latexes can contribute to the stiffness of the final sheet. A sheet prepared by the process is also provided.

Paper having improved printability in rotogravure printing is provided by coating a paper substrate with an aqueous coating formulation containing a pigment such as kaolin clay, a binder such as a styrene/butadiene/itaconic acid terpolymer and a polyamidoamine such as the reaction product derived from ethylene diamine and methylacrylate.

摘要:
Lightweight coated paper articles having a desirable combination of properties are obtained through the use of coating compositions employing as the binder component thereof certain novel polymeric dispersions which comprise a major proportion on a dry basis of an alkali insoluble polymer and a minor proportion (e.g., from about 0.5 to about 25 weight percent on a dry basis based upon the alkali insoluble polymer) of certain alkali soluble polymers. Exemplary of the alkali insoluble polymers employed herein are both the carboxylated and noncarboxylated versions of known addition polymerized synthetic polymers having a glass transition temperature of about 50.degree. C. or less. Exemplary of the alkali soluble polymers employed herein are synthetic addition polymers comprising (in polymerized form and in weight percent based on such polymer) from about 40 to about 90 percent of a vinyl ester of a carboxylic acid (e.g., vinyl acetate, vinyl propionate, etc.); from about 5 to about 55 percent of the nitrile or a C.sub.1 -C.sub.8 alkyl ester of a monoethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid; and from about 5 to about 15 percent of a monoethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid.
