Abstract
Abstract Process for producing a cationic polychloroprene latex by homo- or copolymerizing chloroprene in an aqueous emulsion in the presence of ammonium salts of inorganic or organic acids as emulsifiers wherein the polymerization is carried out in presence of an alkaline earth and/or alkali salt of an organic carboxylic acid or in presence of a mixture of Na 2 HPO 4 and KH 2 PO 4 . The latex thus obtained may be mixed with a bitumen emulsion and can be used for the protection of building or in road construction.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
197 words
In the process for producing a cationic polychloroprene latex by polymerizing chloroprene and from 0 to 50 parts by weight of a copolymerizable comonomer based on 100 parts by weight of total monomer, in aqueous emulsion in the presence of a carboxylic acid salt of a primary, secondary or teriary monoamine, polyamine or aminoamide as emulsifier, wherein said carboxylic acid is selected from the group consisting of mono-, di- or tricarboxylic acids containing from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, the improvement wherein the polymerization is carried out in the presence of at least one member selected from the group consisting of alkaline earth metal salts of organic carboxylic acids and alkali metal salts of organic carboxylic acids in an amount of from 0.2 to 5 parts by weight based on total monomer, wherein said organic carboxylic acids are selected from the group consisting of saturated mono-, di- or tricarboxylic acids with 1 to 6 carbon atoms or in the presence of a mixture of Na 2 HPO 4 and KH 2 PO 4 in a weight ratio of 1:5 to 5:1 and in an amount of from 0.5 to 2.0 parts by weight based on total monomer.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
197 words
In the process for producing a cationic polychloroprene latex by polymerizing chloroprene and from 0 to 50 parts by weight of a copolymerizable comonomer based on 100 parts by weight of total monomer, in aqueous emulsion in the presence of a carboxylic acid salt of a primary, secondary or teriary monoamine, polyamine or aminoamide as emulsifier, wherein said carboxylic acid is selected from the group consisting of mono-, di- or tricarboxylic acids containing from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, the improvement wherein the polymerization is carried out in the presence of at least one member selected from the group consisting of alkaline earth metal salts of organic carboxylic acids and alkali metal salts of organic carboxylic acids in an amount of from 0.2 to 5 parts by weight based on total monomer, wherein said organic carboxylic acids are selected from the group consisting of saturated mono-, di- or tricarboxylic acids with 1 to 6 carbon atoms or in the presence of a mixture of Na 2 HPO 4 and KH 2 PO 4 in a weight ratio of 1:5 to 5:1 and in an amount of from 0.5 to 2.0 parts by weight based on total monomer.
