Abstract: Disclosed are copolymers of alkyl methacrylate monomers wherein said alkyl methacrylate monomers comprise at least: a. Monomers (A) selected from C6-C10 alkyl methacrylate monomers, and b. Monomers (B) selected from C10-C18 alkyl methacrylate monomers, wherein the mass ratio of Monomers (B) in the copolymer to Monomers (A) in the copolymer is about 99:1 to about 60:40 by weight. In some cases, the copolymers are of lauryl methacrylate and C8alkyl methacrylate. Also disclosed are methods for the preparation of the copolymers.
