Abstract: The invention concerns an aqueous specific silica-based nanocomposite polymer dispersion, a method for preparing same, a coating composition, in particular protective, containing said dispersion, for applications requiring high anti-corrosive, anti-abrasive and chemical resistance performances. It concerns an aqueous nanocomposite polymer dispersion obtainable by an emulsion polymerization process of at least one monomer composition in the presence of at least one aqueous silica nanoparticle dispersion, said monomer composition being added at least in one step into the reactor already containing the aqueous silica nanoparticle dispersion, said aqueous silica nanoparticle dispersion having an anionic character and being stable in a pH range between 2 to 10, and said emulsion polymerization being performed in the presence of at least one organic initiator free of any ionic group and in the absence of any monomer or cationic dispersant.
