Organic Acrylate Binder Synthesis through Emulsion Polymerization to ensure the best Mechanical Properties on Applicable Substrates

Emulsions used as pigment binders in formulations have to cope with the challenge to assure an outstanding film configuration and exterior as well as good mechanical properties. One strategy to fulfil this contradictory requirement is the employment of pure poly (acrylate) resins synthesized by emulsion polymerization. For the production of Poly-Acrylate Binder, homo and copolymers were synthesized by emulsion polymerization using methyl acrylate (MA), ethyl acrylate (EA), butyl acrylate (BA) Acrylic Acid, and 2-Hydroxyethyl methacrylate monomers. In accordance with recipe calculation and preparation method our sample shows pretty good tensile and tear strengths, good abrasion resistance and stiffness, excellent chemical resistance and water repellence as well as air permeability.
