  • Publication number: 20240240065
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to an aqueous dispersion comprising particles comprising a first polymer phase and a second polymer phase, where the second polymer phase comprises from 2 to 10% by weight of units based on acids copolymerizable with methacrylates, based on the entirety of the two polymer phases, and wherein the particles have a particle size dso, determined as given in the description, of from 100 to 150 nm, and wherein the entirety of the polymers comprised in the particles comprise of from 49 to 65% by weight of units based on methyl methacrylate and/or butyl methacrylate, of from 22 to 33% by weight of units based on a C1-C4-alkyl ester of acrylic acid, of from 3 to 7% by weight of units based on a hydroxy-functional (meth)acrylate, of from 2 to 8% by weight of units based on (meth)acrylic acid, and of from 5 to 15% by weight of units based on styrene, based on the total weight of the polymers, to a process for preparing an aqueous dispersion comprising a first polymer phase and a second
