Abstract
Abstract A process for producing a reactive aqueous emulsion comprising dispersing a monomer mixture of (a) 65.0 - 98.8% by weight of radical polymerizable hydrophobic ethylenic unsaturated monomer having one ethylenic unsaturated bond, (b) 1.0 - 30.0% by weight of radical polymerizable ethylenic unsaturated monomer having a glycidyl group and (c) 0.2 - 5.0% by weight of a radical polymerizable ethylenic unsaturated monomer having a carboxylic group in water by virtue of a restricted amount of surface active agent and irradiating with an ionizing radiation for a total dose of more than 0.01 Mrad at temperatures ranging from -5 DEG C. to 50 DEG C. This reactive aqueous emulsion does not contain low-molecular water-soluble compounds such as a radical polymerization initiator, a pH regulator, etc. and can form a film having improved properties.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
179 words
A process for producing a reactive aqueous emulsion comprising dispersing a monomer mixture of (a) from 65.0 to 98.8% by weight of a radical polymerizable hydrophobic ethylenic unsaturated monomer having one ethylenic unsaturated bond in its molecule and being selected from the group consisting of an acrylic ester, a methacrylic ester, a vinyl ester, styrene and mixtures thereof, (b) from 1.0 to 30.0% by weight of a radical polymerizable ethylenic unsaturated monomer having a glycidyl group and being selected from the group consisting of glycidyl acrylate, glycidyl methacrylate, allylglycidyl ether, an adduct of a compound having two glycidyl groups with acrylic acid or methacrylic acid, and mixtures thereof, and (c) from 0.2 to 5.0% by weight of a radical polymerizable ethylenic unsaturated monomer having a carboxylic group being selected from the group consisting of acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, crotonic acid, itaconic acid and mixtures thereof, in water and from 0.05 to 10.0% by weight of a surface active agent, and irradiating with a total dose of from 0.01 to 1.0 Mrad of an ionizing radiation to effect emulsion polymerization.
