Definitions

• coating slips are known to be used which essentially consist of a pigment suspended in water with the aid of a dispersant, e.g. B. kaolin, satin white or calcium carbonate and binders.
• a dispersant e.g. B. kaolin, satin white or calcium carbonate and binders.
• Cobinder based on polymers of special acrylic esters.
• Cobinder controls accordinging to G. Hirsch, Das Textil 32 (10A), 1978, 66-72 above all the viscosity and water retention of coating colors, improve individual coating properties such as pick resistance or Ink absorption and above all have an excellent activator effect for optical brighteners.
• semi-synthetic, water-soluble polymers such as the sodium salt of carboxymethyl cellulose and fully synthetic polymers such as copolymers of vinyl acetate and acrylamide (DE-A-2450039) and copolymers of unsaturated acid amides with vinyl or allyl alcohol (DE-A-2933765 & CA 1163395) is used.
• Polymers containing acrylic esters are also used as cobinders, which are added to the coating color as acidic aqueous dispersions and only develop their effect when the alkali is in place (see G. Hirsch, Das Textil 32 (10 A1), 1978, 66-72).
• polyvinyl alcohols are not only excellent binders for pigments, but above all their carrier properties for optical brighteners exceed all of the above-mentioned cobinder systems (see H.G.'-. Oesterlin, Das Textil 36, 1982, 66-72, 121-126, 170-175). According to their degree of hydrolysis, a distinction is made between polyvinyl alcohols (PVAL) so-called fully saponified types (degree of hydrolysis 98-100 mol%) and partially saponified types with degrees of hydrolysis of 70-90 mol%. In the paper coating shop, after extensive investigations (H.G.
• the polymers preferably consist of 60-95% by weight, in particular 70-95% by weight, units a, 5-40% by weight, in particular 5-20% by weight of units b, and 0-10% by weight, in particular each 0 - 5 wt% units c and d.
• the amount of the comonomer units b - e is in the range from 5 to 20% by weight, in particular 7.5 to 10% by weight, the amounts of the vinyl acylate units being particularly preferably as small as possible, i.e. H. at z. B. 0-2% by weight.
• the amount of units e is also preferably 0-1% by weight, in particular still in the lower half of this range, e.g. even below 0.2% by weight.
• the polymers mentioned according to the invention are not only distinguished by the better miscibility of their solutions with the pigment slurry, the pigment shock being significantly reduced, if it still occurs, compared to the addition of solutions of polyvinyl alcohols comparable in viscosity and degree of hydrolysis Surprisingly also in that they can be stirred directly into pigment suspensions in bulk without prior dissolution or dilution.
• the polymers used according to the invention have a stronger pigment binding capacity and higher water retention values than comparable, technically used, fully hydrolyzed polyvinyl alcohols, which expands their field of use as cobinder.
• the methyl radical is preferred as the alkyl group in units b; however, branched and unbranched C 2 to C 4 alkyl groups can also be used.
• the polymers which have hitherto been used as protective colloids for radical polymerization (DE-C-1026074, cf. Chem. Abstr. 54, 16024 h) or as base material for the production of moldings (Chem. Abstr. 87, 118 700c) or in a mixture with glycerol as a water-soluble hot melt adhesive (Chem. Abstr.
• 91, 176392 x can be prepared in a two-stage process, in the first stage by copolymerization of vinyl acylate, in particular vinyl acetate and / or vinyl propionate, with 1-alkyl vinyl acylate, in particular isopropenyl acetate and / or -propionate, and optionally allyl acylate, in particular allyl acetate and / or -propionate in the usual manner by radical suspension or emulsion polymerization in water or by radical polymerization in bulk or in a suitable organic solvent - such as. B. alcohols or esters.
• reactants e.g. B. of metal hydroxides
• the molecular weights can be adjusted in the customary manner by varying the initiator concentrations, temperature and addition of polymerization regulators such as, for example, bromotrichloromethane and thioacetic acid during the polymerization. Higher molecular weights can also be set by adding small amounts of polyethylenically unsaturated compounds such as divinyl adipate and allyl methacrylate.
• the compounds according to the invention with their use as cobinders preferably have Höppler viscosities of 3-20, in particular 4 to 12 mPas (measured as a 4% strength aqueous solution).
• Another possibility of varying the polymers used according to the invention is the incorporation (copolymerization) of units which are derived from vinyl esters of increased hydrophobicity, that is to say, for. B. of the vinyl fatty acid esters, e.g. B. vinyl stearate and / or vinyl laurate and / or from Versatic (R) acid vinyl esters (VeoVa ( R ), esters of branched carboxylic acids produced by the so-called Koch synthesis with mostly 10 to 20 carbon atoms, Shell AG).
• These units increase e.g. B. the surface-active effect of the polymers.
• They are preferably polymerized in amounts of 0-1, in particular 0-0.5,% by weight, based on the total amount of the monomer units.
• ethylene for example, can also be polymerized in amounts of 0-5, in particular 0-1,% by weight of ethylene units.
• coating slips for flat substrates in particular for coated printing substrates, which include paper, cardboard and cardboard in particular, are known in principle. Reference is only made, for example, to DE-A-2933765 and DE-A-2450039.
• the polymer used according to the invention can be used as a cobinder in known coating compositions in customary amounts and can at least partially, preferably entirely, replace the cobinder used there, e.g. B. the polymer B of DE-A-2933765 or the copolymer of acrylamide of DE-A-2450039.

• the second value represents the result at 100 rpm Lichen polyvinyl alcohols practically only act as another filler.

• the coating colors were spread on one side on a test coating system by means of a scraper applicator at a speed of 100 m / min onto a wood-containing base paper with a basis weight of approx. 35 g / m.
