Abstract
Abstract Single-package coating or ink composition of pH 7 to 12 comprising a reaction product of a binder resin and a scavenging agent which reacts with anions of the initiator used to prepare the binder resin, the binder resin has a Tg of 20° to 70° C., is prepared in an aqueous medium devoid of emulsifiers, and is a polymer of an ethylenically unsaturated acid of 3 to 10 carbon atoms and an acrylic monomer(s) selected from alkyl acrylates and methacrylates containing 4 to 24 carbon atoms, amount of the acid being 0 to 5 parts per 100 parts of the acrylic monomer(s).

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
139 words
Article of manufacture comprising a coating composition adhering to a substrate comprising polyvinyl chloride, said coating composition comprising a reaction product of a binder resin, a scavenging agent which reacts with the anions of the persulfate initiator used to prepare said binder resin, and a sufficient amount of an alkaline neutralizing agent to render said composition neutral to alkaline, said binder resin, being devoid of an unsaturated nitrile residue, is prepared in absence of emulsifier and has Tg of about 20° to 70° C., molecular weight of 50,000 to 600,000, and is a polymer of an ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid containing 3 to 10 carbon atoms and an acrylic monomer selected from alkyl acrylates and methacrylates containing 4 to 24 carbon atoms, amount of said carboxylic acid being 0 to 5 parts per 100 parts of said acrylic monomers.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
139 words
Article of manufacture comprising a coating composition adhering to a substrate comprising polyvinyl chloride, said coating composition comprising a reaction product of a binder resin, a scavenging agent which reacts with the anions of the persulfate initiator used to prepare said binder resin, and a sufficient amount of an alkaline neutralizing agent to render said composition neutral to alkaline, said binder resin, being devoid of an unsaturated nitrile residue, is prepared in absence of emulsifier and has Tg of about 20° to 70° C., molecular weight of 50,000 to 600,000, and is a polymer of an ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid containing 3 to 10 carbon atoms and an acrylic monomer selected from alkyl acrylates and methacrylates containing 4 to 24 carbon atoms, amount of said carboxylic acid being 0 to 5 parts per 100 parts of said acrylic monomers.
