Abstract

Heat resistant binders for flexible nonwoven mats may be prepared using an emulsion polymer comprising 100 parts by weight of acrylate or styrene/acrylate monomers, 3 to 6 parts of a blocked, N-methylol containing comonomer, 0 to 3 parts of a water soluble non-blocked N-methylol containing comonomer and 0 to 5 parts of a multifunctional comonomer. The use of the blocked N-methylol containing comonomer permits the incorporation into the latex binders of higher levels of N-methylol functionality with consequent increase in heat resistance. As such, the binders are useful in the formation of heat resistant flexible mats for use in roofing, flooring and filtering materials.
