Abstract
Abstract A coating composition for paper comprising a mineral pigment and a polymer latex prepared by emulsion polymerization of a monomeric mixture comprising an aliphatic conjugated diene monomer, an ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid monomer and a monoolefinic monomer in a weight proportion of 24.5-50:0.5-5:45-75 in the presence of a chain transfer agent, characterized in that the chain transfer agent is carbon tetrachloride and an alkylmercaptan in combination.
