Abstract
The properties of a thermosetting polymer emulsion can be improved by irradiation with an ionizing radiation. By adding a specific amount of lipophilic polyfunctional monomer to a thermosetting polymer emulsion and irradiating with an ionizing radiation, the properties of the thermosetting polymer emulsion can be improved regardless of the type of thermosettable polymer constituting the emulsion. The thermosetting polymer emulsion of which properties are improved by this invention can form a film having excellent water-resistance, chemical resistance and toughness.
