Claim:
An aqueous composition comprising: i) an aqueous dispersion of one or more emulsion-polymerized addition polymers selected from the group consisting of a vinyl acetate homopolymer, a vinyl acetate-acrylic copolymer, a vinyl acetate-ethylene copolymer, a vinyl acetate-vinyl versatate copolymer, and a vinyl acetate-vinyl versatate-acrylic copolymer, in an amount of at least 5% by weight of the addition polymers; ii) one or more carboxylesterase enzymes; iii) a headspace VOC content of greater than 50 ppm of one or more mono-alcohols with a formula molecular weight of less than 76; (iv) less than 10 ppm of an aldehyde (v) less than 10 ppm of organic carboxylesters with a normal boiling point of less than 150° C.; and (vi) an aldehyde consuming nitrogen-containing nucleophilic molecule or sodium bisulfite.
