Abstract
A waterbased dispersion useful for forming aqueous coating composition containing dispersed pigment, an aqueous carrier and a branched polymer dispersant (binder); PA1 the branched polymer has a weight average molecular weight of about 5,000-100,000 and contains 20-80% by weight of a hydrophilic backbone and correspondingly 80-20% by weight of macromonomer side chains; wherein PA1 the backbone is of polymerized ethylenically unsaturated monomers and 2-30% by weight, based on the weight of the backbone of polymerized ethylenically unsaturated monomers having an acid-functional group; and wherein at least 10% of the acid-functional groups are neutralized with an amine or an inorganic base and is hydrophilic in comparison to the side chains; PA1 the side chains are of macromonomers of polymerized ethylenically unsaturated monomers that are polymerized into the backbone via an ethylenically unsaturated group and the macromonomers have a weight average molecular weight of about 1,000-30,000 and wherein the weight ratio of pigment to binder is about 1/100-200/100.
