Abstract
Highly coalescence-capable and deformable latexes have a controlled crosslinking density. For example, a styrene/butadiene core is prepared using conventional emulsion polymerization techniques and at a point at which much of the butadiene is converted to polymer a second stage monomer mixture comprising monovinyl monomers is contacted with the initial mixture to yield a latex having a shell region comprising essentially linear polymers which are partially covalently bonded to said core region.
