Abstract

Abstract Polymer compositions having beneficial utility in the manufacture of adherent, flexible, polymeric coatings and adhesive layers and having wide utility in the polymeric filmforming art are prepared by first providing spherical monomolecular particles of a rubbery polymer which has a weight average molecular weight of at least 100 million which particles have means for attaching thereto by a chemical bond a second polymeric portion, and then attaching to said particles by a chemical bond (e.g., by grafting) a second portion composed of a polymer which is soluble in a hard polymer selected from polymers having a weight average molecular weight of about 50,000 to 10 million and a Knoop hardness value of at least 5; very useful film-forming compositions are obtainable by dispersing the resulting polymeric particles and said hard polymer in a liquid such as water or an organic solvent suitable for use as the continuous phase of a polymer solution or suspension.
