Quaternized tertiary aminomethyl acrylamide polymer emulsions are treated by 1) adjusting the pH to about 3.6 to about 4.8, 2) adding a formaldehyde scavenger, 3) adjusting the water content of the aqueous phase to result in about 10-45 weight percent of quaternized aminomethylated acrylamide polymer and 4) heating the resultant emulsion at from about 40.degree. C. to about 80.degree. C. for about 3 to about 20 hours so as to render them more stable, capable of inversion in water independent of water temperature or pH of the medium flocculent and superior dewatering ability.

Novel aminoplast anchored UV stabilizers are provided. Compared to unanchored stabilizers, the anchored stabilizers disclosed herein have increased compatibility with coating resins and have reduced volatility due to higher molecular weights resulting from anchoring. A process for preparing the anchored stabilizers by the reaction of unanchored stabilizers with alkoxymethylated aminoplasts in a sulfuric acid medium is also provided. The unanchored stabilizers include 2-(2-hydroxyaryl)benzotriazoles, 2-hydroxybenzophenones, 2-(2-hydroxyaryl)-4,6-diaryl-1,3,5-triazines, salicylic acid derivatives, 2-hydroxyoxanilides, and blocked derivatives thereof as well as mixtures of two or more stabilizers. The aminoplasts include alkoxymethylated derivatives of glycolurils, melamines, and benzoguanamines.
