Abstract: The present invention provides a water-repellent coating composition which enables easy removal of dirt while having good appearance due to high compatibility of a water-repellent component with other materials. The present invention provides a coating composition, comprising a siloxane group-containing polymer (A) and a crosslinking agent (B), wherein the siloxane group-containing polymer (A) is a block copolymer comprising an A block and a B block, and containing, in the A block, at least a structural unit derived from a siloxane group-containing vinyl monomer (a) and containing, in the B block, a structural unit derived from a hydroxyl group-containing vinyl monomer (b) and, as necessary, a structural unit derived from another vinyl monomer (c) copolymerizable with the vinyl monomers (a) and (b), and is a copolymer having a molecular weight distribution (Mw/Mn) of 2.0 or less and polymerized by living radical polymerization.

Abstract: The object of the present disclosure is to provide a method for producing a crosslinked polymer by radical polymerization of a monomer composition, by which method a desired crosslinked polymer can be produced in a high solid content with good productivity (also at a low production cost), and a crosslinked polymer obtained by the production method and a coating composition containing the same.

Abstract: The object of the present disclosure is to provide a crosslinked resin fine particle which has a particle diameter small enough to be used suitably for the purpose of viscosity control and can be produced inexpensively. Crosslinked resin fine particles obtained by reacting a vinyl monomer composition comprising: 5 to 50% by weight of a (meth)acrylamide-based monomer (A), 5 to 50% by weight of a crosslinkable unsaturated monomer (B), and 10 to 90% by weight of a (meth)acrylate having an alkyl group containing 8 to 24 carbon atoms (C) in an organic solvent, and having a number average particle diameter of 10 to 250 nm.
