Abstract
A method for the concentration of water-in-oil emulsions of water soluble vinyl addition polymers is disclosed. The process involves distilling the water-in-oil emulsion of the water soluble vinyl addition polymer under a vacuum while maintaining the water-oil phase ratio substantially equal to the starting latex. Maintaining this ratio allows latices of this type to be concentrated to as high as 70% by weight polymer.
