Abstract

Abstract A composition for paper coating which comprises a pigment and, as a pigment binder, a synthetic copolymer latex comprising about 24.5 to 50 parts by weight of at least one aliphatic conjugated diolefin, about 0.5 to 10 parts by weight of at least one ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid and about 40 to 75 parts by weight of at least one monoolefinic monomer copolymerizable with the aliphatic conjugated diolefin and the ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid, the synthetic copolymer having a gel content of not more than about 60 % by weight based on the weight of the synthetic copolymer.
