Abstract
Abstract Coating compositions which dry to a matte film (80* gloss 10 maximum) and comprising an aqueous latex in which is dispersed 45-90 percent by volume based on the solids content of granules of polymer containing 1-75 percent by weight of pigment. The granules have a Stokes diameter of 1-50 micron, a specific weight average mean Stokes diameter related to their volume concentration in the total solids of the coating and an elongation at break of 40 percent maximum.
