Abstract

Abstract Synthetic latices are made heat-sensitive by the presence in the latex of a silicone polyether. The use of an organosulfonate in combination with a silicone polyether as a heat-sensitizing system for synthetic latices produces a heat-sensitive latex that is relatively stable at room temperature but that may be converted to a gel at a moderately low temperature and the silicone polyether may be used in significantly reduced amounts to impart heat-sensitivity to the latex as compared to the amounts of silicone polyether required as the heat-sensitizing additive without this additive. Organic acids when used in conjunction with the silicone polyether-sulfonate heatsensitizing system, further enhance gelation of synthetic latices in that gelation occurs within a shorter time when the latex is heated to the gelation temperature, gelation of the latex occurs at a lower gelation temperature and gelation of latices with relatively low solids content can be accomplished.
