Abstract
The invention relates to a method of making an aqueous coating composition comprising a blend of at least a first aqueous polymer dispersion and a second aqueous polymer dispersion comprising a film-forming second polymer wherein the first aqueous polymer dispersion comprises a first polymer having a number average molecular weight, Mn, of from 2000 to 120000, an acid value of 30 to 150 mg KOH/g, a glass transition temperature Tg of at least 20° C. as calculated with the Fox formula, and an ethylene-oxide content of from 1 to 20 wt %, the method comprising blending an aqueous dispersion of the first polymer having a solids content of 25 to 50 wt % and a pH of 4.5 to 8.0 with an aqueous dispersion of the second polymer having a solids content of 25 to 55 wt % and a pH of 4.5 to 8.0.
