Abstract:
A composition having low volatile organic content and low odor that is suitable for forming coatings, adhesives, and inks formulations comprising an aqueous dispersion comprising a blended mixture of:(a) a polymer obtained by the polymerization of: (i) an internally plasticizing and crosslinkable monomer derived from a semi-drying or non-drying oil; and (ii) one or more of ethylenically unsaturated monomers copolymerizable therewith; (b) a surface-active agent; and (c) a drier selected from the group consisting of aliphatic carboxylic acid salts of cobalt, manganese, lead, zirconium, calcium and mixtures thereof; wherein the total weight percent of said polymer in said aqueous dispersion is at least from about 5 and not more than about 80 weight percent, based on total weight of the composition, and wherein said monomers (i) and (ii) are present in the weight ratio ranging from about 1:2 to about 1:99.
