Claim 8

An aqueous emulsion coating composition as recited claim 6 in which said polyacrylate is reacted with from 0.2-1.2 equivalents of amine per mole of polyacrylate.

Claim 9

An aqueous emulsion coating composition as recited in claim 1 in which said polyethylenically unsaturated tertiary amine, after solubilization with said solubilizing acid, has a viscosity of at least 500 centipoises.

Claim 10
