Abstract
A polyester aqueous dispersion having excellent properties in waterproof, weatherproof, processibility and adhesion, which provides a large allowance for controlling liquid physical properties by post treatment and is advantageous in making dry powders from the dispersion, and an efficient method for preparing the aqueous dispersion at low costs in a simple manner. The polyester aqueous dispersion comprising (i) a water-insoluble polyester and (ii) a polyester containing a sulfonate group bound to a polymer in a concentration of 0.1 to 1.5 mmol equivalents when calculated as —SO group per gram of the polymer, and method for preparing a polyester aqueous dispersion comprises a step of melt-kneading a resin composition comprising the water-insoluble polyester (i) and polyester (ii) and a step of phase inversion of adding water or a basic aqueous solution to the molten kneaded mixture thereby to shift the resin composition into the aqueous dispersion.
