Abstract:
A single-package aqueous polymeric initial formulation comprising:(a) a polymeric ingredient having (i) a latex seed core with a number average particle size in a range from 20 nanometers to about 60 nanometers and a polymerizable monomeric ingredient having both (ii) acid functional pendant moieties and (iii) pendant moieties having the ability to form stable enamine structures by reaction with amines, which contain a divalent group of the structure ##STR12## wherein R.sub.1 is either H, a C.sub.1 to C.sub.10 alkyl group, or phenyl;(b) a polyfunctional amine having at least two amine functional moieties;(c) an effective amount of base to inhibit crosslinking of the polymeric ingredient with the polyfunctional amine; and(d) an evaporable aqueous carrier, wherein the seed core is of a different chemical composition than the polymerizable monomeric ingredient.
