Abstract: Aqueous dispersions are disclosed, having a minimum film formation temperature no greater than about 50° C., that include a multi-stage emulsion polymer made by a process that includes a first polymerization stage, in which a first monomer mixture having a calculated glass transition temperature of at least about 50° C. is polymerized via free radical emulsion polymerization to obtain a first-stage emulsion polymer, and a second polymerization stage, in which a second monomer mixture, having a calculated glass transition temperature from about ?30° C. to about 10° C., is polymerized via free radical emulsion polymerization, in the presence of the first-stage emulsion polymer. The dispersions are useful in a variety of coating compositions that exhibit improved block resistance.

Abstract: A modified pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) is produced by polymerizing at least one ethylenically unsaturated monomer to form a base polymer and reacting the base polymer with a modifying polymer comprising units derived from a n-vinyl lactam to thereby produce a modified polymer. The modified polymer can be used to form modified PSAs having improved adhesion properties over PSAs formed from the unmodified base polymer.
