Abstract
Abstract Mixtures of aqueous synthetic rubber dispersions of alkali-insoluble copolymers of minor amounts of ethylenically unsaturated monomers (a) which form water-soluble hompolymers and major amounts of ethylenically unsaturated monomers (b) which form water-insoluble homopolymers have large particle size and are less viscous and easier to process than aqueous dispersions of the same solids concentration having small particle size.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
157 words
An aqueous synthetic rubber dispersion comprising an aqueous dispersion of particles of polybutadiene or a synthetic rubber copolymer in which the monomer units consist of at least 20% by weight of butadiene, said copolymer having a glass temperature below 20°C, and said particles being agglomerated by dispersion in said synthetic rubber dispersion of an alkali insoluble copolymer, said synthetic rubber copolymer being a copolymer of at least 20% by weight of butadiene copolymerized with, as the remainder of said copolymer, at least one of styrene, acrylonitrile, n-butylacrylate, vinylmethylether, methacrylamide and acrylic acid, and said alkali insoluble copolymer is a copolymer of 75-99.9% by weight of ethyl acrylate and 0.5-25% by weight of acrylamide, the percentage totalling 100%, 0.1 to 30 parts by weight of the copolymer being used per 100 parts by weight of the dispersed synthetic rubber, and the particles of said alkali insoluble copolymer being more hydrophilic than the dispersed particles of said synthetic rubber.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
157 words
An aqueous synthetic rubber dispersion comprising an aqueous dispersion of particles of polybutadiene or a synthetic rubber copolymer in which the monomer units consist of at least 20% by weight of butadiene, said copolymer having a glass temperature below 20°C, and said particles being agglomerated by dispersion in said synthetic rubber dispersion of an alkali insoluble copolymer, said synthetic rubber copolymer being a copolymer of at least 20% by weight of butadiene copolymerized with, as the remainder of said copolymer, at least one of styrene, acrylonitrile, n-butylacrylate, vinylmethylether, methacrylamide and acrylic acid, and said alkali insoluble copolymer is a copolymer of 75-99.9% by weight of ethyl acrylate and 0.5-25% by weight of acrylamide, the percentage totalling 100%, 0.1 to 30 parts by weight of the copolymer being used per 100 parts by weight of the dispersed synthetic rubber, and the particles of said alkali insoluble copolymer being more hydrophilic than the dispersed particles of said synthetic rubber.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
139 words
An aqueous synthetic rubber dispersion comprising an aqueous dispersion of particles of polybutadiene homopolymer, and said particles being agglomerated by dispersion in said synthetic rubber dispersion of an alkali insoluble copolymer, said alkali insoluble copolymer being a copolymer of (a) 0.5 to 25% by weight of acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, acrylamide, methacrylamide, N-methylolacrylamide, N-methylolmethacrylamide, N-vinylpyrrolidone, butanediol diacrylate or butanediol monoacrylate and (b) 99.5 to 75% by weight of styrene, butadiene, vinyl acetate, or an ester of acrylic or methacrylic acid with an alkanol having one to four carbon atoms, said percentages for (a) and (b) totalling 100%, 0.1 to 30 parts by weight of the alkali insoluble copolymer being used per 100 parts by weight of the dispersed polybutadiene homopolymer, and the particles of said alkali insoluble copolymer being more hydrophilic than the dispersed particles of said polybutadiene homopolymer.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
139 words
An aqueous synthetic rubber dispersion comprising an aqueous dispersion of particles of polybutadiene homopolymer, and said particles being agglomerated by dispersion in said synthetic rubber dispersion of an alkali insoluble copolymer, said alkali insoluble copolymer being a copolymer of (a) 0.5 to 25% by weight of acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, acrylamide, methacrylamide, N-methylolacrylamide, N-methylolmethacrylamide, N-vinylpyrrolidone, butanediol diacrylate or butanediol monoacrylate and (b) 99.5 to 75% by weight of styrene, butadiene, vinyl acetate, or an ester of acrylic or methacrylic acid with an alkanol having one to four carbon atoms, said percentages for (a) and (b) totalling 100%, 0.1 to 30 parts by weight of the alkali insoluble copolymer being used per 100 parts by weight of the dispersed polybutadiene homopolymer, and the particles of said alkali insoluble copolymer being more hydrophilic than the dispersed particles of said polybutadiene homopolymer.
