The latex particulate can comprise multiple intermingled discrete polymer strands, including: a low Tg polymer strand having a Tg below 50° C. and a high Tg polymer strand having a Tg at 50° C. or above. Additionally, the Tg of the high Tg polymer strand can be at least 50° C. greater than the Tg of the low Tg polymer strand.
