Abstract
Embodiments include coating compositions, methods of coating a substrate, and substrates having at least one surface coated according to the methods of the present disclosure. The aqueous, substantially volatile organic compound (VOC)-free coating compositions includes an acrylic latex and a vinyl acetate-ethylene latex including from about 10 to about 90 weight percent of a vinyl acetate-ethylene polymer, based on total weight of acrylic polymer and vinyl acetate-ethylene polymer, having a Tfrom about −20 to about 20 degrees Celsius; and from about 10 to about 90 weight percent of an acrylic polymer, based on the total weight of acrylic polymer and vinyl acetate-ethylene polymer, the acrylic polymer comprising, in polymerized form, at least one ethylenically unsaturated (meth)acrylic monomer and from about 0.01 to about 10 weight percent, based on total weight of the acrylic polymer, of an acetoacetate moiety containing monomer, where the acrylic polymer has a Tof from about −20 to about 20 degrees Celsius.
