Abstract: A polymer composition including polymer particles comprising a first polymer and a second polymer is disclosed. The first polymer optionally has a crosslinked core and has a glass transition temperature in the range of ?30° C. to 100° C. The second polymer comprising select crosslinking groups has a glass transition temperature in the range of ?10° C. to less than 18° C. A coating composition comprising the polymer composition is provided. The polymer composition has good low temperature film formation and provides a film with an acceptable level of hardness.
