Abstract: Dispersion polymers based on ethylenically unsaturated monomers, the polymers containing at least 1% by weight of specific monomer units of ethylenically unsaturated urea derivatives (see formula I), process for their preparation particularly by free-radical initiated emulsion, suspension or bead polymerization or copolymerization and their use as coating compositions, preferably in the form of aqueous dispersions, particularly as corrosion inhibiting metal coating compounds, moreover as adhesives, molded plastics and as binders, thickeners and auxiliaries in industrial chemical compositions.

Abstract: Graft polymers in which carboxylic acid vinyl esters and if appropriate other ethylenically unsaturated monomers are grafted polymerically onto polyurethane graft bases by means of grafting polymerization initiated by free radicals, and hydrolysis products of the graft polymers can be obtained by grafting carboxylic acid vinyl esters with 3 to 20 carbon atoms and if appropriate other ethylenically unsaturated polymerizable monomers, which are copolymerizable if appropriate, in amounts of 10 to 99% by weight, based on the graft polymer, onto a polyurethane graft base by grafting polymerization initiated by free radicals, and if appropriate subsequently partly or completely hydrolyzing the vinyl ester units and if appropriate other hydrolyzable monomer units in the grafted-on polymer radicals of the graft polymers by hydrolysis and/or alcoholysis. Preferred vinyl esters to be grafted on are vinyl acetate and/or vinyl propionate and if appropriate vinyl versatate.

Abstract: Organic dispersion polymers based on ethylenically unsaturated, polymerizable or copolymerizable monomers which are prepared in the presence of protective colloids or of protective colloids and emulsifiers by emulsion, suspension or bead polymerization or copolymerization, initiated by free radicals, in an aqueous medium and are present in aqueous dispersion form or in finely dispersed dry powder form and which contain, as protective colloids, preferably 0.

Abstract: Dispersion polymers of ethylenically unsaturated monomers which are prepared in the presence of protective colloids and if appropriate emulsifiers by polymerization in an aqueous medium and are present in aqueous dispersion form or in finely dispersed dry powder form. They contain, as protective colloids, water-soluble graft polymers containing vinyl alcohol units on a polyurethane grafting base, the polyurethane grafting bases containing at least 2 urethane groups in the molecule prepared by reacting diisocyanates and diols, and polymer radicals of units of carboxylic acid vinyl esters having 3 to 20 carbon atoms and/or hydrolysis products thereof and if appropriate units of other ethylenically unsaturated monomers and/or hydrolysis products thereof being grafted onto the polyurethane grafting bases.

Abstract: Fluorine-containing copolymers are prepared by free radical-initiated copolymerization of ethylenically unsaturated, copolymerizable monomers, containing vinyl esters, 0.05 to 60% by weight, relative to the total amount of monomers employed, of fluorine-containing monomers in which the copolymerizable ethylene group is substituted by radicals containing fluorocarbon groups, the fluorocarbon groups being composed of at least 2 adjacent carbon atoms having F--C bonds, if appropriate, ethylenically unsaturated monocarboxylic and/or dicarboxylic acids, and if appropriate, further monomers, and, if appropriate, the subsequent partial or complete saponification of the vinyl ester units present in the resulting copolymers to give vinyl alcohol units.

Abstract: Unsaturated acetoacetic acid esters are suitable as comonomers in the polymerization of unsaturated compounds in an aqueous medium. Particularly suitable are acetylacetoxyalkyl-allyl ethers which may be synthesized in an easy manner and correspond to the formulae ##STR1## Said allyl ether derivatives are especially prepared by reacting an allyl alcohol with an epoxide and reacting the resulting hydroxyalkyl-allyl ether with diketene. Both reaction steps are carried out at a temperature of from 0.degree. to 100.degree. C., preferably in the presence of a catalyst. The allyl ether derivatives may be copolymerized especially with vinyl compounds, such as vinyl esters, acrylic acid esters, olefins, vinyl halides and vinyl aromatic hydrocarbons.

Abstract: Vinyl polymers with acetylacetoxy groups form the basis of polymer dispersions which are used as binding agent dispersions in paints, particularly suitable vinyl polymers are obtained by polymerizing an acetylacetoxy compound together with a least one further olefinically unsaturated compound, while using as acetylacetoxy compound an allyl ether derivative of the formula ##STR1## The copolymerization is carried out in particular in emulsion at a temperature in the range of from -30.degree. to 200.degree. C. As comonomers there are used especially vinyl esters and (meth-)acrylic acid esters. The polymerization is commonly effected in the presence of a radical-forming initiator and optionally in the presence of emulsifiers and protective colloids.

Abstract: A process is described by which plastics dispersions of high water and saponification resistance are obtained which, due to their small average particle size diameter of 0.01 to 0.06 microns are especially useful as primers for porous substrates. In their penetration characteristics, the present dispersions can be compared with conventional solvent-based primers at comparable solids content. The dispersions are obtained in a one-step polymerization process.
