Abstract
Abstract A wax emulsion is disclosed which upon application to a material forms a film capable of keeping the material water-proof or otherwise protective against ambient influences. The quality of the wax emulsion is improved by the combination of a hydrocarbon wax with a liquid polybutadiene a polybutene or a polyisobutylene.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
117 words
A wax emulsion prepared from a composition comprising 100 parts by weight of a hydrocarbon wax melting in the range of 40°-120° C., and 5-25 parts by weight of at least one polymer of the group consisting of a liquid polybutadiene having a number-average molecular weight of 500-10,000, a polybutene having a number-average molecular weight of 300-3,000 and a polyisobutylene having a viscosity-average molecular weight of 20,000-50,000, said composition being emulsified in water, wherein said liquid polybutadiene is selected from the group consisting of low homopolymers of butadiene, copolymers of butadiene and one or more od conjugated diolefins of 4-5 carbon atoms, and low copolymers of butadiene and aliphatic or aromatic vinyl monomers having an ethylene unsaturation.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
117 words

Claim 3
Dependent Claim
122 words
The wax emulsion prepared from a composition comprising 100 parts by weight of a hydrocarbon wax melting in the range of 40°-120° C., and 5-25 parts by weight of at least one polymer of the group consisting of a liquid polybutadiene having a number-average molecular weight of 500-10,000, a polybutene having a number-average molecular weight of 300-3,000 and a polyisobutylene having a viscosity-average molecular weight of 20,000-50,000, said composition being emulsified in water, wherein prior to emulsification with water, the composition is blended with at least one member selected from the group consisting of petroleum resins, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers and asphalt, said member being in an amount of not more than 10 parts by weight per 100 parts of said hydrocarbon wax.
