Abstract

Abstract Polymeric products containing cationic salt groups, their method of polymerization and their use in coating applications are disclosed. The dispersions are prepared by dispersing in water an at least partially neutralized amine group-containing polymer followed by adding a polymerizable ethylenically unsaturated monomer composition to the dispersion and subjecting the dispersion to addition polymerization conditions. The resultant dispersions are useful in coating applications.
