Abstract: The disclosed technology provides a product obtained/obtainable by a process including (i) An emulsion polymer formed from any combination of ethylenically unsaturated monomers, to form an acrylic copolymer, wherein the acrylic copolymer has 0 to 4 wt % ethylenically unsaturated acid (or salts thereof) monomer based on the dry weight of the copolymer acid groups form acidic monomers, a linear Tg of up to 30° C., and an average particle size of 30 to 1000 nm, (ii) Contacting the copolymer of (i) with 0.1 to 20 wt % of a C4-30 fatty acid or salt thereof (peelability enhancing agent) based upon the solid content of the product of step (i). The acrylic copolymer composition may be useful as a peelable coating composition.
