Abstract
A polymer useful in forming coatings for articles is provided. The polymer is an acrylic copolymer formed as the reaction product of a plurality of monomers which include an alkyl (meth)acrylate, a quaternary amine (meth)acrylate, a hydroxyalkyl (meth)acrylate, an N-vinyl lactam, an ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid, and a fluorinated (meth)acrylate. The polymer is formed in the presence of surfactants, preferably by sequential polymerization of two separate monomer mixtures. To form a coating, the polymer is blended with an elastomeric material such as nitrile rubber latex. The resulting coating is useful both as a print coating for substrates used with ink jet printers and as a coating for rubber articles.
