Abstract
Abstract An aqueous dispersion containing from 5 to 80% by weight of a copolymer A) having a glass transition temperature of from 50 to 150° C. and from 95 to 20% by weight of a copolymer B) having a glass transition temperature of from -50° to +50° C., the glass transition temperatures of the two copolymers differing by at least 20° C. at least one of the two copolymers containing from 3 to 70% by weight, based on the particular copolymer, of an ethylenically unsaturated C 3 -C 5 -mono- or dicarboxylic acid or of the anhydride thereof and the stated weights of the copolymers A) and B) being based on the sum of A) and B), is used as a sealable coating.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
128 words
A process for preparing a heat-sealable substrate, comprising coating said substrate with an aqueous dispersion containing from 5 to 80% by weight of a copolymer A) having a glass transition temperature of from 50° to 150° C. and from 95 to 20% by weight of a copolymer B) having a glass transition temperature of from -50° to +50° C., the glass transition temperatures of the two copolymers differing by at least 5° C., at least one of the two copolymers containing from 3 to 70% by weight, based on the particular copolymer, of an ethylenically unsaturated C 3 -C 5 -mono- or dicarboxylic acid or of the anhydride thereof and the stated weights of the copolymers A) and B) being based on the sum of A) and B).
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
128 words
A process for preparing a heat-sealable substrate, comprising coating said substrate with an aqueous dispersion containing from 5 to 80% by weight of a copolymer A) having a glass transition temperature of from 50° to 150° C. and from 95 to 20% by weight of a copolymer B) having a glass transition temperature of from -50° to +50° C., the glass transition temperatures of the two copolymers differing by at least 5° C., at least one of the two copolymers containing from 3 to 70% by weight, based on the particular copolymer, of an ethylenically unsaturated C 3 -C 5 -mono- or dicarboxylic acid or of the anhydride thereof and the stated weights of the copolymers A) and B) being based on the sum of A) and B).
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
70 words
The process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the aqueous dispersion has been prepared by carrying out the emulsion polymerization of the monomers of one of the copolymers A) or B) in the aqueous phase in the presence of the other copolymer A) or B) which contains from 3 to 70% by weight of an ethylenically unsaturated C 3 -C 5 -mono- or dicarboxylic acid or of the anhydride thereof.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
53 words
The process as claimed in claim 2, wherein the polymerization of the monomers of copolymer B) has been carried out in aqueous emulsion in the presence of copolymer A) which contained from 3 to 70% by weight of an ethylenically unsaturated C 3 -C 5 -mono-or dicarboxylic acid or of the anhydride thereof.
