Abstract

Abstract Emulsion copolymerization of acrylic or methacrylic acid esters with from 0.3 to 10% by weight of α,β-monoolefinically unsaturated monocarboxylic acids and/or dicarboxylic acids and/or their amides, with or without up to 25% by weight of styrene, acrylonitrile, vinyl acetate and/or vinyl chloride, using the emulsion feed process, gives particularly concentrated copolymer dispersions if an emulsifier system of 0.01-5.0% by weight of a sulfuric acid half-ester of an oxyalkylated alkylphenol and 0.01-1% by weight of a dialkyl sulfosuccinate, where alkyl is of 6 to 18 carbon atoms, is employed and the polymerization is carried out at pH 2-6.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim 148 words
A process for the preparation of a concentrated polyacrylate dispersion consisting of polymerization of 65-97 percent by weight of acrylic or methacrylic acid esters of alkanols of 1 to 8 carbon atoms, 0.3-10 percent by weight of α, β-monoolefinically unsaturated monocarboxylic and/or dicarboxylic acids of 3 to 5 carbon atoms and/or their amides and 0-25 percent by weight of monomers from the group consisting of styrene, acrylonitrile, vinyl acetate and vinyl chloride, in aqueous emulsion at pH 2-6 in the presence of 0.01-5.0 percent by weight, based on monomers, of the sulfuric acid half-ester of an adduct of an alkylphenol, alkyl being of 8 to 9 carbon atoms, with 5-50 moles of ethylene oxide and 0.01-1 percent by weight, based on monomers, of a dialkyl sulfosuccinate, alkyl being of 6 to 18 carbon atoms, and conventional water-soluble free radical initiators at 30°-95° C., by the emulsion feed process.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 148 words
A process for the preparation of a concentrated polyacrylate dispersion consisting of polymerization of 65-97 percent by weight of acrylic or methacrylic acid esters of alkanols of 1 to 8 carbon atoms, 0.3-10 percent by weight of α, β-monoolefinically unsaturated monocarboxylic and/or dicarboxylic acids of 3 to 5 carbon atoms and/or their amides and 0-25 percent by weight of monomers from the group consisting of styrene, acrylonitrile, vinyl acetate and vinyl chloride, in aqueous emulsion at pH 2-6 in the presence of 0.01-5.0 percent by weight, based on monomers, of the sulfuric acid half-ester of an adduct of an alkylphenol, alkyl being of 8 to 9 carbon atoms, with 5-50 moles of ethylene oxide and 0.01-1 percent by weight, based on monomers, of a dialkyl sulfosuccinate, alkyl being of 6 to 18 carbon atoms, and conventional water-soluble free radical initiators at 30°-95° C., by the emulsion feed process.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 142 words
The process for the preparation of a concentrated polyacrylate dispersion according to claim 1, wherein 65-97 percent by weight of acrylic or methacrylic acid esters of alkanols of 1 to 8 carbon atoms, 0.5-7.5 percent by weight of α, β-monoolefinically unsaturated monocarboxylic and/or dicarboxylic acids of 3 to 5 carbon atoms and/or their amides and 0-25 percent by weight of monomers from the group consisting of styrene, acrylonitrile, vinyl acetate and vinyl chloride are polymerized in aqueous emulsion at pH 3-5 in the presence of 0.1-0.5 percent by weight, based on monomers, of the sulfuric acid half-ester of an adduct of an alkylphenol, alkyl being of 8 to 9 carbon atoms, with 20-30 moles of ethylene oxide and 0.1-0.5 percent by weight, based on monomers, of di-2-ethylhexyl sulfosuccinate and conventional water-soluble free radical initiators at 50°-85° C. by the emulsion feed process.
