Abstract
This invention relates to polymers, especially emulsion polymers, and their use for the thickening of a variety of aqueous systems, to methods of thickening utilizing the polymers, to enhancement of such thickening by the addition of surfactants, solvents or non-solvents, and to other aspects including coating compositions and other aqueous systems thickened with the polymers. This invention also relates to new complex hydrophobe-containing oligomers and their use in producing the polymers of this invention.
