Abstract
Process for the preparation of aqueous homogeneous polymer emulsion which comprises mixing, generally with agitation or under shear conditions, water, surfactant, at least one polymer, e.g., cellulosic compounds, and at least one monomer, e.g., acrylics, methacrylics, styrene, etc., the polymer being soluble in said monomer, to form a dispersion of polymer-monomer particles in water; then subjecting said dispersion to conditions such that the monomer within the particles become polymerized by free radical polymerization thereby forming a substantially homogeneous blend of at least two polymers within the particles of the emulsion. The particles have on the average a diameter of 5 microns or less.
