Abstract: The invention provides paper coating slips comprising, as a binder, an aqueous dispersion of a styrene-butadiene copolymer or of a styrene-acrylic ester copolymer, or a mixture of these aqueous dispersions, characterized in that an aqueous dispersion of a polyvinyl alcohol-stabilized vinyl acetate-ethylene copolymer is additionally present in each case.

Abstract: Silane-modified polyvinyl alcohols are obtained by treating vinyl alcohol polymers with one or more ethylenically unsaturated, silane-containing monomers at elevated temperature.

Abstract: Compositions useful for preparing coating slips for inkjet recording materials include a pulverulent silane-modified fully or partially hydrolyzed polyvinylalcohol and a redispersible polymer powder.

Abstract: Silane-modified polyvinyl alcohols are obtained by treating vinyl alcohol polymers with one or more ethylenically unsaturated, silane-containing monomers at elevated temperature.

Abstract: Release films or papers with improved properties are prepared by employing a binder which is a partly or fully hydrolyzed silane-group-containing polyvinyl alcohol polymer derived from a vinyl ester polymer containing 1-alkylvinylester moieties.

Abstract: Silane-modified polyvinyl alcohol mixtures comprising: a) a low molecular weight, silane-containing polyvinyl alcohol having a Höppler viscosity according to DIN 53015 as a 4% by weight aqueous solution of from 1 to 25 mPas, and b) a higher molecular weight, silane-containing polyvinyl alcohol having a Höppler viscosity according to DIN 53015 as a 4% by weight aqueous solution of from 10 to 50 mPas, the silane-containing polyvinyl alcohol a) having a lower Höppler viscosity than the silane-containing polyvinyl alcohol b), are useful as non-dilatant polymeric binders for paper coating slips.

Abstract: Silane-modified polyvinyl alcohol mixtures comprising:

Abstract: Silane-containing polyvinyl alcohols, useful as additives in coating slips, are based on completely hydrolyzed or partially hydrolyzed vinyl ester copolymers having a degree of hydrolysis of from 75 to 100 mol %, obtainable by free radical polymerization of

Abstract: In a coating slip for coating flat surfaces comprising an aqueous dispersion, with a solids content of 8 to 65% by weight, of 100 parts by weight of a pigment, 3 to 30 parts by weight of synthetic high-molecular-weight binder based on copolymers of acrylates, styrene, butadiene and unsaturated carboxylic acid esters and 0.5 to 2 parts by weight of a cobinder the improvement comprising using a cobinder polymer containing a large degree of hydroxyl groups comprising (a) 50 to 95% by weight of vinyl alcohol units, (b) 5 to 50% by weight of 1-alkylvinyl alcohol units of 1 to 4 alkyl carbon atoms, (c) 0 to 20% by weight of vinyl acylate units, (d) 0 to 20% by weight of allyl alcohol units and (e) 0 to 5% by weight of other polymerizable monomers having improved pigment shock behavior and very good activity as an optical brightener support.
