Abstract

Abstract In a heat sealable coating composition for application to a polymer film wherein the composition contains (a) a film-forming aqueous latex based on an interpolymer or blend one or more acrylate esters and, optionally, one or more alpha, beta ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acids, (b) inorganic particulate hot slip agent and (c) wax-containing cold slip agent, an improvement is provided which comprises the presence therein of such an aqueous latex in which the average particle size of the interpolymer component is from about 0.03 to about 0.5 microns.
