Abstract

Abstract WHEREIN R1 is hydrogen or alkyl and R2 is alkyl wherein the sum of R1 and R2 equals from eight to 20 carbon atoms; where Y is hydrogen or methyl; where n is an integer from 6 to 40; and where R3 is hydrogen or methyl. A process for reducing the heat-seal temperature requirements of films and coatings produced from high vinylidene chloride polymer latexes comprising having present in films or coatings formed from such latexes, prior to fusion thereof, from about 0.5 to about 5 percent by weight of latex polymer solids of an alkyl phenol olefin oxide adduct of the formula
