Aqueous copolymer latexes comprising colloidally dispersed, substantially spheroidal copolymer particles having a predominantly hydrophobic core portion and having a relatively hydrophilic polymeric portion which is preferentially oriented toward the outer surface as a shell portion are prepared by (a) emulsion polymerizing an initial monomer charge to form a first aqueous latex of a substantially linear, relatively hydrophilic polymer and (b) thereafter emulsion polymerizing a major proportion from about 50 to 95 parts by weight of a second and relatively more hydrophobic monomer charge in the presence of a minor proportion from about 5 to 50 parts by weight on a polymer solids basis of said first, relatively hydrophilic polymer latex.
