Abstract

What are disclosed are aqueous dispersions of a self-crosslinking synthetic resin, said dispersions consisting of an aqueous phase containing from 0.2 to 5 weight percent of urea and, dispersed therein, resin particles formed of a vinyl polymer comprising (a) from 52.1 to 97.9 weight percent of acrylate or methacrylate esters, vinyl esters, or styrene; (b) from 0.1 to 10 weight percent of N-methylol acrylamide or methacrylamide; (c) from 2 to 10 weight percent of an hydroxyalkyl ester of an unsaturated carboxylic acid; and (d) 0 to 27.9 weight percent of other monomers, which dispersions, on drying and condensation to form films, liberate much less formaldehyde than comparable dispersions without urea while retaining good solvent resistance.
