    Abstract: The present invention relates to aqueous acrylic polymer latexes, which are suitable as binders in coating compositions for providing flexible roofing. The present invention also relates to coating compositions containing such binders, which are suitable for providing flexible roofing. The aqueous acrylic polymer latexes have a glass transition temperature Tg of at most from −10° C., in particular at most −20° C., or, in case of a multi-stage polymer latex a weight average glass transition temperature Tg of at most from −10° C., where the polymer of the acrylic polymer latex has a carbon polymer backbone formed by polymerized ethylenically unsaturated monomers M comprising acrylic monomers, and where the carbon polymer backbone bears functional groups of the formula (I) attached to carbon atoms of the polymer backbone *—C(═O)—O-[A-NH]nH (I) where the asterisk indicates the atom attached to a carbon atom of the polymer backbone, n is an integer, the number average of n in all functional groups of the formula (I) being >1, in particular at least 1.1 or at least 1.2 or at least 1.3, and A is selected from the group consisting of 1,2-ethandiyl or 1,2-propandiyl, where the functional groups of the formula (I) contribute to the total weight of the polymer in the acrylic polymer latex by 0.1 to 10% by weight.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of liquid aqueous polymer compositions containing an aqueous polymer latex and at least one inorganic particulate material for providing flexible roof coatings. The present invention also relates to a method for providing flexible roof coatings, which comprises applying said liquid aqueous polymer compositions to a flat roof. The liquid aqueous polymer composition contain, a. an aqueous polymer latex, where the polymer in the polymer latex is made of polymerized monomers M, where the polymerized ethylenically unsaturated monomers M comprise a combination of) at least two different monoethylenically unsaturated, non-ionic monomers M1, whose homopolymers have a theoretical glass transition temperature Tg(th) of at least 25° C. and ii) at least two different monoethylenically unsaturated, non-ionic monomers M2, whose homopolymers have a theoretical glass transition temperature Tg(th) of at less than 25° C., where each of the monomers M1 and M2 have a solubility in deionized water of at most 50 g/L and where the total amount of monomers M1 and M2 contributes with at least 90% by weight to the total amount of the monomers M, and b. at least one inorganic particulate material selected from inorganic pigments, inorganic fillers and mixtures thereof.
