Disclosed are the use of novel surfactants for the synthesis of emulsion polymer latexes, particularly those used in paints, coatings, and pressure sensitive adhesives. The surfactant compositions for emulsion polymer latexes comprise sterically bulky surfactants whose composition comprises at least one alkoxylated polyaryl substituted aromatic sulfosuccinate compound. The novel surfactants provide for the production of stable, small particle size distribution emulsion polymer latexes. The resulting latexes, when formulated into latex paint, impart improvements in water resistance as measured by film opacity, blister resistance and improved leveling characteristics, and when formulated into pressure sensitive adhesives, provide improved water resistance characteristics as measured by film opacity.
公开了新型表面活性剂在乳液聚合胶乳合成中的用途,特别是在油漆、涂料和压敏胶中的用途。用于乳液聚合胶乳的表面活性剂组合物包括立体笨重的表面活性剂,其组合物包含至少一种烷氧基化多芳基取代芳香族
磺基琥珀酸酯化合物。这种新型表面活性剂可用于生产稳定的小粒径分布乳液聚合胶乳。由此产生的胶乳在配制成乳胶漆时,可改善耐
水性(以漆膜不透明度、抗起泡性和流平特性来衡量);在配制成压敏粘合剂时,可改善耐
水性(以漆膜不透明度来衡量)。
