Disclosed are low Tg latex polymers and low VOC aqueous coating compositions having an improved open time profile, as well as drying time, stain resistance, wet edge time, low temperature film formation, block resistance, adhesion, water sensitivity and low-VOC content. The latex polymers and aqueous coating compositions include at least one latex polymer derived from at least one monomer copolymerized or alkoxylated compounds or blended with an alkoxylated compound, for example an alkoxylated tristyrylphenol or an alkoxylated tributylphenol. Also provided is an aqueous coating or adhesive composition including at least one latex polymer, water and one or a blend of two or more open time additives or drying time additives. The blend can comprise nonionic and anionic open time additives. Typically, the open time and/or drying time additive is present in an amount greater than about 1.3% by weight of the polymer or composition, typically in an amount greater than about 2% by weight of the polymer or composition, in an amount greater than about 4% by weight of the polymer or composition, in an amount greater than about 7.5% by weight of the polymer or composition, in an amount greater than about 10% by weight of the polymer or composition or in an amount greater than about 20% by weight of the polymer or composition.

A subject-matter of the present invention is a surface-active block copolymer comprising at least one hydrophilic block and at least one hydrophobic block which is prepared by a “living” or “controlled” preparation process, the said copolymer exhibiting a number-average molecular mass of between 1 000 and 50 000, preferably between 2 000 and 20 000, more preferably still between 4 000 and 16 000, a glass transition temperature of the hydrophobic block of less than 30° C., preferably of less than 25° C., and greater than −100° C., and a surface tension of less than 60 millinewtons per metre (mN/m), preferably of less than 50 mN/m, measured at a concentration in demineralized water of less than or equal to 10−4 mol/l, and the transfer agent optionally having been rendered inert with respect to the said radical polymerization. The copolymers obtained can be used in particular in detergency or in paints, adhesives and building materials.
