Improving water resistance of waterborne formulations using polymerizable surfactants and specific multifunctional additives

Several industrial polymers are made by emulsion polymerization. They can be used as binders for several applications including waterborne coatings and adhesives. The emulsion polymerization process requires the use of surfactants to allow the formation of stabilized polymer particles in an aqueous medium (latex). Nowadays, the surfactants commonly used are conventional surfactants, which can be… Leggi tutto »
