Abstract
A coating composition containing an emulsion polymer prepared with up to about 20% by weight, based on total polymerizable monomers, of addition polymerizable esters of the glycidyl esters of tertiary acids having 9 or more carbon atoms, preferably up to 18 carbon atoms, and particularly having 9 to 11 carbon atoms has improved application properties and produces coatings with better appearance and less water sensitivity. The emulsion polymerization process of the invention produces less coagulum without having to increase the amount of surfactant.
