Abstract
ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE
High solids, low viscosity copolymer latices especially useful when formulated as surface coatings are prepared from (a) at least one vinyl ester monomer in an amount representing from about 50 weight percent to about 95 weight percent of total monomer charge and (b) at least one acrylate ester and/or methacrylate ester monomer representing the balance of the total monomer charge. The latices are prepared in a multi-stage polymerization sequence in which a significant portion of the total vinyl ester monomer charge is polymerized together with from 0 to about 50 weight percent of the total acrylate ester and/or methacrylate ester monomer in the initial stage in an aqueous emulsion reaction medium containing a suitable catalyst and thereafter, the remaining portion of the total vinyl ester monomer charge together with the remaining portion of the acrylate ester and/or methacrylate ester monomer charge is polymerized in the reaction medium containing additional catalyst if needed and polymerization is continued substantially to completion.

Description
1 PREPA~TION OF HIGH SOLIDS COPOLYMER LATICES WITH LOW
VISCOSITY
This invention relates to the field of copolymer 5 latices and, more particularly, to such latices having high solids content and low viscosity and bein~ prepared from a mixture of copolymerization monomers inclu~ing a vinyl ester and an acrylate or methacrylate ester.
Numerous procedures for the emulsion polymerization 10 and copolymerization of various ethylenically unsaturated monomers, vinyl esters, acrylate esters and methacrylate esters among them, have been known for some time. In general, a latex derived from a vinyl ester and one or more other monomers copolymerizable therewith is prepared 15 by first charging an aqueous phase containing water, surface active agent, buffer, catalyst or catalyst system of the free radical type and usually a protective colloid such as polyvinyl alcohol (P~A), to a reactor. The monomers are thereafter charged to the reactor either as separate 20 streams with mixing occurring in the reactor or in admixture, and either all at once or incrementally, and following heating to polymerization temperature, - polymerization is thereafter permitted to proceed, aceompanied by eonstant agitation, substantially to 25 completion. The resulting latex is eooled and filtered and can be used in many applications, e.g., as paints and other surface coating compositions, adhesives and textile treating agents.
3o ,.~., S~33 1 Emulsion pol~merization procedures featuring one or more aspects of the aforedescribed method o~ preparing copolymer latices are descrlbed in U.S. Patent Nos.

3,423,353 to Levine et al. ln particular describes latlces obtained from vlnyl acetate and one or more other comonomers including al~yl acrylates and methacrylates such as methyl acrylate, ethyl acr~late~ propyl acrylate, butyl acrylate, 10 isobutyl acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl acrylate, methyl methacrylate, ethyl methacrylate and n-propyl methacrylate, the latices being said to possess higher solids contents than obtainable using conventional emulsion polymeri2ation techni~ues, while at the same time having reduced viscosities and lmproved 15 freeze-thaw stability. The latices are prepared in the conventional manner and once polymerization is substantially complete, a rel~tively large amoun~ of water-soluble polymerization catalyst or intiator is added to the emulsion to reducs viscosity and increase particle size.
20 Xt is speculated by patentees that this post-addition of catalyst results in some degradat~on of th~ surface active agen'G and the ether linkage-containing protective colloid when used, reducing their molecular weights by an oxidative mechanism which in~rolves rupture oî the ether linkages.
25 This oxidative degradation is thought to reduce the effectiveness of the surface actl~e agent and protecti~e colloid resulting in some agglomeration o~ partlcles. The larger average particle size o~ the emulsion is believed to be also responsible for the reduction in viscosity.
50~3 It has now been discovered that latices derived ~ro~ vinyl esters and acrylate and/or methacrylate esters having high solids contents and low viscosity can be 5 readily and conveniently prepared as a result of the polymerization itsel~, thus dispensing with the need ~or ~urther manipulative steps ~uch as the post-addition of relatively large quantities of catalyst o~ U.SI Patent No. 3,423,353 to Levine et al.
The post-addition of catalyst to latices prepared by the process of this invention has no significant ef~ect on the viscosities o~ the products~
demonstrating that the viscosities o~ the latices herein are for the most part ~ixed during polymerizationr In accordance with the present invention, high solids9 low viscosity copolymer latices are prepared from (a) at least one vinyl ester monomer in an amount representing from about 50 weight percent to qbout 95 weight percent o~
total monomer chargeg and (b) at least one monomer selected 20~rom the group consisting o~ acrylate ester monomer and methacrylate ester monomer representing the balance of the total monomer charge; which comprises, polymerizing in a first stage, a significant portion of the total vinyl ester monomer, e.g., at least about 10 weight percent and pre~erably 25at least about 50 weight percent of the total vinyl ester monomer~
together with from 0 to about ~0 weight percent of the total acrylate and/or methacrylate ester monomer in an aqueous emulsion reaction medium containing a polymerizatlon catalyst~ and thereafte polymerizing in a second~stage the remaining portion o~ the 30total vinyl ester monomer charge together with the remaining amount of the acrylate and/or methacrylate ester monomer in the reaction medium containing additional catalyst if needed, polymer-ization be~ng continued substantially to completion. Pre~erably 1 during the first sta~e, the ratio of vinyl ester to acrylate and/or methacrylate monomer ls greater than about 4.5 until about 40-60% of the total monomer charge is added and during the second addition, the ratio of 5 vlnyl ester monomer to acrylate and/or methacrylate monomer is Iess than about 4.5 unti.l the total remaining amount of monomers has been added to the polymerization reactor.
One or more other ethylenically unsaturated monomers co~
polymerizable with monomers (a) and (b) present in an amount 10 of up to 5 welght percent of the total monomer charge can be added at the commencement of or during the polymerization sequence. It may be advantageous to initially polymerize a small amount, i.e., about 5~, o~ the total vlnyl ester monomer in the reactor prior to commencement of the first 15 stage polymerization.
The process herein contemplates the use of known and conventional surface active agents, buffers~ protective colloids, catalysts, and the like, in the usual amounts, and can be carried out ~n equipment heretofore employed for 20 emulsion polymerization.
Typically, the latices produced in accordance with this invention will possess a solids content from - about 60 to about 70 weight percent and even higher. The ~ viscosities of the high solids latices herein are generally 25but a fraction of the viscosities of latices prepared in-the usual manner, l.e., by simultaneous addition of monomers, and will usually not exceed 15,000 cp. Brookf-ield viscosity (~VF, Spindle No. 1) at 2 rpm. Viscosities of latices of equivalent high solids which are preared in the con~entional 30way have attained 50,000 cp. Brookfi~ld ~iscosity (RVF~
Spindle No. 5) at 2 rpm. The combination of hlgh solids content and low vi~cosity makes the latices of this invention especially useful for formulation as paints and other surface coatings.
~5033 The latices prepared in accordance with the process o~ this invention contain copolymers of at least one vinyl ester and at least one acrylate and/or methacrylate ester.
5 Generally, when preparing these copolymers, from about 50 weight percent to about 95 wei~ht percent, and preferably from about ~5 weight percent to about 85 weight percent, of vinyl ester will be copolymerized with ~rom about 5 weight percent to about 50 weight percent, and preferably 10 ~rom about 15 weight percent to about 35 weight percent~
of acrylate and/or methacrylate ester based on the total weight of the monomers present.
Among the vinyl esters which can be advantageously used in this invention are included vinyl formate, vinyl 15 propionate, vinyl butyrate and vinyl chloroacetate. Vinyl acetate is e~pecially preferred ~or use herein. Illustra-tive of acrylate esters and methacrylate esters which can be used in this invention to good effect are methyl acrylate, ethyl acrylate, propyl acrylate, butyl acrylate, 20 isobutyl acrylate, sec-butyl acrylate, amyl acrylate, isoamyl acrylate, hexyl acrylate, 2-ethylhexylacrylate, octyl acrylate, 3,5,5-trimethylhexyl acrylate, decyl : acrylate, dodecyl acrylate~ cetyl acrylate, octadecyl acrylate, cyclohexyl acrylate, phenyl acrylate, methyl 25 methacrylate, ethyl methacrylate, n-propyl methacrylate, n-amyl methacrylate, isoamyl methacrylate, hexyl methacrylate, 2-ethylbutyl methacrylate, octyl methacr~late, 3~5,5-trimethylhexyl methacrylate, decyl methacrylate, cyclohexyl methacrylate~ norbornenyl 3 methacrylate, benzyl metnacrylate, phenyl methacrylate,and neopentyl methacrylate. Butyl acrylate has been found to be especially advantageous ~or use herein.
As previously stated, up to 5 weight percent of the total weight of the monomers present can be 1 interpolymerized with one or more additional ethylenically unsaturated monomers illustrative of which are the followin~:
ethylene, propylene, l-butene, 2-butene, isobutylene, - 5 l-pentene, 2-methyl~2-butene, l-hexene, 4 methyl-l~pentene, 3,3-dimethyl-1-butene, 2,4,4-trimethyl-1-pentene, 6-ethyl-l-heYene, l-heptene, l-octene, l-decene, l-dodecene, allene, butadiene, isoprene, chloroprene, 1,5-hexadiene, 1,2,5-hexatriene, divinylacetylene, cyclopentadiene, dicyclo-10 pentadieneg norbornene, norbornadiene, methylnorbornene, cyclohexene, styreneg alphà-chlorostyrene, alphamethyl-styrene, allylbenzene, phenylacetylene, l-phenyl-l, 3-butadiene, vinylnaphthalene, 4-methylstyrene~ 2,4-di-methylstyrene, 3-ethylstyrene, 2,5-diethylstyrene, 2-meth-15 oxystyren~ 4-methoxy-3-methylstyrene~ 4-chlorcstyrene, 3~

5()33 1 nonionic and anionic materials, and mixtures thereof heretofore empl3yed in the em~lsion copoly~erization of vinyl acetate and ethylene, the nonionic surfactants being especially preferred. Among the nonionic surface active 5 agents ~hich have been found to provide good results are ~ included the t'I~epals" (G.A.~.), the "Tweens" (Atlas Chemical) and the "Pluronics~ ASF ~yandotte). The "Igepals" are members of a homolo~ous series of alkylphenoxypol~(ethyleneoxy) ethanols which can be 10 reprecented by the general formula ~ ~ _ o ~ CH2 ~ ~ 1 2 ~ ~
15 ~herein R represents an alkyl radical and n represents the number of mols of ethylene oxide employed-~ among which are alkylphenoxypoly(ethyleneoxy) ethanols having alkyl groups containing from about 7 to about 18 carbon atoms, inclusive, and having from about 4 to about 100 ethyleneoxy 20 units, such as the heptylphenoY.ypoly(ethylenoY~y) ethanols, nonylphenoxypoly(ethyleneoxy) ethanols and dodecylphenoxy-poly(ethyleneoxy) ethanols; the sodium or ammonium salts of the sulfate esters of these alkylphenoxypoly~ethyleneoxy) ethanols, alkylpoly(ethyleneoxy) ethanols3 alkylpoly-(propyleneoxy)ethanols; octylphenoxyethoxyethyldime-thylbenzylammonium chloride; polyethylene glycol t- -dodecylthioether.

1 ethylene oxide with a hydrophobic base formed b~ condensing propylene oxide with propylene glycol, and the like. Other suitable nonionic surfactants which can be employed herein are ethylene oxide derivatives of long chain fatty alcohols 5 such as octyl~ dodecyl~ lauryl or cetyl alcohol. Anionic sur~ace active agents which can be used here~n include the alkali metal sulfates of C12 to Cll~ alcohols such as sodium lauryl sulfate and alkali metal salts of alkyl benzene sulfonic acids and alkyl toluene sulfonic acids having 10 aliphatic side chains of about 10 to about 15 carbon atoms~
and the like. The surface active agent is generally employed at from about 3~ to about 5~ and preferably, at from a~out 3.5v~ to about 4.5%g by weight of the total monomers present.
15A protective colloid is generally incorporated in the aqueous emulsions of this invention.~ Such known and conventional protective colloids as: the partially and fully hydrolyæed polyvinyl alcohols; cellulose ethers, e.g., hydroxymethyl cellulose, hydroxyethyl cellulose, 20 ethyl hydroxylethyl cellulose and ethoxylated starch derivatives; the natural and synthetic gums, e.g. gum tragacanth and gum arabic, polyacrylic acid, poly(methyl vinyl ether/maleic anhydride) and polyvinyepyrrolidone, -- are well suited for use herein, preferably at a level of 25 from about 0.1% to about 2% by weight of the emulsion.
Polyvinylpyrrolidone and the partially hydrolyzed polyvinyl alcohols are especially advantageous for use in this invention.
The catalysts used in the copolymerization reaction 30 are any of tne known and conventional free radical polymerization catalysts heretofore used for the prepara-tion of copolymer latices and include inorganic peroxides such as hydrogen peroxide, sodium perchlorate and sodium perborate, inorganic persulfates such as sodium persulfate, 35 potassi.um persulfate and ammonium persulfate and reducing lagents such as sodium hydrogen sulfite. Catalyst (includ-ing co catalyst reducing agent, lf employed) is generally utilized at a level of from about 0.1~ to about 1~ by weight of total comonomers. The catalyst can be added to 5the reaction medium all at once or it can be divided into two or more parts and added to the reactor medium with each addition of monomer or during either or both polymerizatlon sequences.
An alkaline buffering agent such as sodium lObicarbonate, ammonium bicarbonate~ sodium acetate, and the like3 may be added to the aqueous system to ma~n-tain the pH at the desired level. The amount of buffer is generally about 0.01 to 0.5% by weight based on the monomers.
The method by which the monomers are charged to the reactor is not critical. The monomers can be added to the reaction medium as a steady stream/ drop-wise or in periodic increments; the ~inyl ester and acrylate/methacrylate ester can be admixed pr~or to being charged to the reactor 20or these monomers can be introduced to the reactor as separate streams. Advantageously, the monomers are added as a steady s~ream over periods ranging from about 1 hour to about 5 hours and preferably, over a period of ~rom - about 2 hours to about 3 hours.
The temperakure reaction herein can be selected at levels which have heretofore been employed in emulsion polymerization. For both polymerization sequences the temperature can range from about 0C. to about lOO~C~
preferably ~rom about ambient temperature to about 80C, 30wi~h the reaction medium being constantly stirred or otherwise agitated. The substantlal completion of poly-merization Ls usually indicated when ~ree monomer content &~033 1 of the latex emulsion is below about 1~ and preferably - below about 0,5~.

~ o test the perlormance ol the hi~h solids latices of this invention, standard latex paints were prepared from the copolymer latices of Example 1 (Part A) and Example 5 2 (Part B). Usin~ normal paint making procedures, a plgment ~rind was prepared and then let down with latex~

Both paints were drawn down on a Leneta contrast chart, using a ~ mil drawdown bar. The dry draw-downs ~rere exam~ned and found to be quite satisfactory with no latex coagulation or pigment agglomeration present.

I'he reaction temperature dropped, and light 25 heating was necessary to keep the reaction temperature from falling. The rate of addition was somewhat low in order to prevent the build up of free monomer in the .eactor which mi~ht otherwise produce foam~- Catalyst was added both when the addition had started and upon its 30 co~pletion.

Other suitable nonionic surfactants which can be employed herein are ethylene oxide derivatives of long chain fatty alcohols 5 such as octyl~ dodecyl~ lauryl or cetyl alcohol. Anionic sur~ace active agents which can be used here~n include the alkali metal sulfates of C12 to Cll~ alcohols such as sodium lauryl sulfate and alkali metal salts of alkyl benzene sulfonic acids and alkyl toluene sulfonic acids having 10 aliphatic side chains of about 10 to about 15 carbon atoms~
and the like. The surface active agent is generally employed at from about 3~ to about 5~ and preferably, at from a~out 3.5v~ to about 4.5%g by weight of the total monomers present.
15A protective colloid is generally incorporated in the aqueous emulsions of this invention.~ Such known and conventional protective colloids as: the partially and fully hydrolyæed polyvinyl alcohols; cellulose ethers, e.g., hydroxymethyl cellulose, hydroxyethyl cellulose, 20 ethyl hydroxylethyl cellulose and ethoxylated starch derivatives; the natural and synthetic gums, e.g. gum tragacanth and gum arabic, polyacrylic acid, poly(methyl vinyl ether/maleic anhydride) and polyvinyepyrrolidone, -- are well suited for use herein, preferably at a level of 25 from about 0.1% to about 2% by weight of the emulsion.
Polyvinylpyrrolidone and the partially hydrolyzed polyvinyl alcohols are especially advantageous for use in this invention.
The catalysts used in the copolymerization reaction 30 are any of tne known and conventional free radical polymerization catalysts heretofore used for the prepara-tion of copolymer latices and include inorganic peroxides such as hydrogen peroxide, sodium perchlorate and sodium perborate, inorganic persulfates such as sodium persulfate, 35 potassi.um persulfate and ammonium persulfate and reducing lagents such as sodium hydrogen sulfite. Catalyst (includ-ing co catalyst reducing agent, lf employed) is generally utilized at a level of from about 0.1~ to about 1~ by weight of total comonomers. The catalyst can be added to 5the reaction medium all at once or it can be divided into two or more parts and added to the reactor medium with each addition of monomer or during either or both polymerizatlon sequences.
An alkaline buffering agent such as sodium lObicarbonate, ammonium bicarbonate~ sodium acetate, and the like3 may be added to the aqueous system to ma~n-tain the pH at the desired level. The amount of buffer is generally about 0.01 to 0.5% by weight based on the monomers.
The method by which the monomers are charged to the reactor is not critical. The monomers can be added to the reaction medium as a steady stream/ drop-wise or in periodic increments; the ~inyl ester and acrylate/methacrylate ester can be admixed pr~or to being charged to the reactor 20or these monomers can be introduced to the reactor as separate streams. Advantageously, the monomers are added as a steady s~ream over periods ranging from about 1 hour to about 5 hours and preferably, over a period of ~rom - about 2 hours to about 3 hours.
The temperakure reaction herein can be selected at levels which have heretofore been employed in emulsion polymerization. For both polymerization sequences the temperature can range from about 0C. to about lOO~C~

9. The process of claim 1, 2 or 3, in which the reaction medium additionally contains a protect-ive colloid selected from partially and fully hydrolyzed poly-vinyl alcohols; cellulose ethers; hydroxymethyl cellulose;
hydroxyethyl cellulose, ethyl hydroxyethyl cellulose; ethyoxyl-ated starch derivatives; natural and synthetic gums; gum tragacanth; gum arabic; polyacrylic acid, poly (methyl vinyl ether), maleic anhydride, and polyvinylpyrrolidone, present in an amount of from about 0.1% to about 2% by weight of the emulsion.
hydroxyethyl cellulose, ethyl hydroxyethyl cellulose; ethyoxyl-ated starch derivatives; natural and synthetic gums; gum tragacanth; gum arabic; polyacrylic acid, poly (methyl vinyl ether), maleic anhydride, and polyvinylpyrrolidone, present in an amount of from about 0.1% to about 2% by weight of the emulsion.
10. The process of claim l, 2 or 3, in which the reaction medium additionally contains an alkaline buffering agent.
11. The process of claim 1, in which the balance of the total vinyl ester monomer charge together with the balance of the acrylate ester and/or methacrylate ester monomer charge is added incrementally in the second step, wherein the ratio of vinyl ester monomer to acrylate and/or methacrylate monomer in the first incremental addition is greater than about 4.5 until about 40-60% of the total monomer charge is added, and thereafter, in a second incremental addi-tion, the ratio of vinyl ester monomer to acrylate and/or meth-acrylate monomer is less than about 4.5 until the remaining amount of monomers is added to the reactor.
12. The process of of Claim 1 in which one or more other ethylenically unsaturated monomers copolymerizable with monomers (a) and (b) present in an amount of up to 5 weight percent of the total monomer charge is added at the commencement of, or during, polymerization.
13. The latex prepared by the process of Claim 1, 11 or 12.
