Abstract
An aqueous emulsion copolymer of monoethylenically unsaturated monomers which includes from about 0.1 weight % or less to about 10 weight % or greater of a monoethylenically unsaturated macromonomer. These monomers can improve the brush drag of paints made with the emulsion copolymers, and in some instances the leveling is simultaneously improved.
