Abstract

Abstract Interpolymer latex and process for the preparation thereof, in which the latexes are aqueous dispersions of particles having a diameter which is essentially between 0.1 and 1 μm of an interpolymer comprising a copolymer A of butadiene, styrene and at least one ethylenic unsaturated carboxylic acid and a polymer B of bis(2-chloroethyl)vinylphosphonate which is at least partly grafted onto copolymer A. They can be used in particular as binders, more particularly in the paper coating industry and in the textile industry.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 14
Claim 1
Independent Claim 36 words

Claim 2
Dependent Claim 36 words
A latex of an interpolymer composed of a copolymer A comprising copolymerized butadiene, styrene and at least one ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid and a bis(2-chloroethyl)vinylphosphonate polymer B which is at least partly grafted onto copolymer A.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 14 words
An interpolymer as claimed in claim 1 in which polymer B is bis(2-chloroethyl)vinylphosphonate polymer.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 31 words
A latex as claimed in claim 1 in which the interpolymer comprises from 80 to 99% by weight of copolymer A and from 20 to 1% by weight of polymer B.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 39 words
A latex as claimed in claim 1 in which copolymer A comprises, by weight, from 25 to 55% of butadiene, from 35 to 74% of styrene and from 1 to 10% of at least one ethylenic unsaturated carboxylic acid.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 35 words
A latex as claimed in claim 1 in which polymer B comprises, by weight, from 15 to 100% of bis(2-chloroethyl)vinylphosphonate and from 0 to 85% of at least one ethylenic unsaturated compound copolymerizable with bis(2-chloroethyl)vinylphosphonate.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 34 words
A latex as claimed in claim 1 in which at least 75% of the interpolymer is insoluble in isopropyl alcohol and comprises, in the grafted state, from 0.2 to 15% by weight of bis(2-chloroethyl)vinylphosphonate.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 30 words
A latex as claimed in claim 1 in which the carboxylic acid is selected from the group consisting of acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, itatonic acid, maleic acid and fumaric acid.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 40 words
A latex as claimed in claim 5 in which the compound which is copolymerizable with bis(2-chloroethyl)vinylphosphonate compounds is selected from the group consisting of vinylaromatic compounds, vinyl halides, vinylidene halides, dienic compounds, vinyl esters of carboxylic acid and acrylic compounds.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 61 words
A latex as claimed in claim 5 in which the compound which is copolymerizable with bis(2-chloroethyl)vinylphosphonate is selected from the group consisting of styrene, α-methylstyrene, paratertiobutylstyrene, chlorostyrene, vinyltoluene, vinyl chloride, vinyl bromide, vinyl fluoride, vinylidene chloride, butadiene, isoprene, chloroprene, acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, acrylamide, methacrylamide, acrylic nitrile, methacrylic nitrile, chloroacrylonitrile, vinyl acetate, esters of acrylic acid and esters of methacrylic acid.

Claim 12
Dependent Claim 58 words
A process for the preparation of latexes of claim 1, emulsion polymerizing butadiene, styrene and at least one copolymerizable ethylenic unsaturated carboxylic acid to produce a copolymer latex, and then polymerizing a vinyl phosphonate alone or in combination with at least one ethylenic unsaturated compound which is copolymerizable with the vinylphosphonate, in the presence of the copolymer latex.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 13 words
