A novel process for the preparation of latex with high solid content, but maintaining the characteristics of microemulsion polymerisation latex, small particle size (less than 50 nm) and polymer with high molecular weight (more than 10 6) is presented. With the PS latex obtained by microemulsion polymerisation as seed, core shell, styrene-butyl acrylate polymers functionalised with itaconic acid are prepared. Materials were characterised by differential scanning calorimetry, dynamic mechanical thermal analysis and transmission electron microscopy. These polymers have better mechanical properties than the non functionalised or those prepared by emulsion polymerisation. 11 refs. 

A different approach was taken by Touhsaent et al. [2081. These authors synthesized two polymers, one of which formed a network, by simultaneous independent reactions in the same container. They have indicated that intercrosslinking reactions are eliminated by combining free radical (acrylate) and condensation (epoxy) polymerization. By this method, they modified an epoxy resin with poly(n-butyl acrylate) polymer. They have found that a two-phase morphology developed, consisting of co-continuous rubber domains (about 0.1—0.5 p-m) within the epoxy resin. The dimensions of the dispersed rubber phase domains and the extent of molecular mixing between the two components were found to depend on the relative reaction rates (or gel time) with respect to the rate of phase separation. Better mechanical properties resulted when the extent of molecular mixing was minimized and heterophase semi-IPNs were produced.

Emulsion Polymerization. Emulsion polymerization is the most important industrial method for the preparation of acryhc polymers. The principal markets for aqueous dispersion polymers made by emulsion polymerization of acryhc esters are the paint, paper, adhesives, textile, floor pohsh, and leather industries, where they are used principally as coatings or binders. Copolymers of either ethyl acrylate or butyl acrylate with methyl methacrylate are most common. 

AH-acryHc (100%) latex emulsions are commonly recognized as the most durable paints for exterior use. Exterior grades are usuaHy copolymers of methyl methacrylate with butyl acrylate or 2-ethyIhexyl acrylate (see Acrylic ester polymers). Interior grades are based on methyl methacrylate copolymerized with butyl acrylate or ethyl acrylate. AcryHc latex emulsions are not commonly used in interior flat paints because these paints typicaHy do not require the kind of performance characteristics that acryHcs offer. However, for interior semigloss or gloss paints, aH-acryHc polymers and acryHc copolymers are used almost exclusively due to their exceUent gloss potential, adhesion characteristics, as weU as block and print resistance. 

Vinyl acetate is another monomer used in latex manufacture for architectural coatings. When copolymerized with butyl acrylate, it provides a good balance of cost and performance. The interior flat latex paint market in North America is almost completely dominated by vinyl acetate—acryHc copolymers. Vinyl acetate copolymers are typicaHy more hydrophilic than aH-acryHc polymers and do not have the same ultraviolet light resistance as acryHcs as a result.
