Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition comprising an aqueous dispersion of a) polymer particles having a z-average particle size in the range of from 80 nm to 500 nm; b) polymeric crosslinked organic microspheres having a D50 particle size in the range of from 1 ?m to 30 ?m; c); a colorant and d) a zinc or zirconium compound. The composition of the present invention is useful for reducing leaching from a coating prepared from a deep base, low sheen paint formulation.

Abstract: In one aspect of the invention, a microcapsule includes a film encapsulating a material. The film is formed by complexation of at least two mutually attractive components initially present in an aqueous dispersion comprising a continuous phase and a dispersed phase. The at least one first component is initially present in the continuous phase and the at least one second component is initially present in the dispersed phase. According to another aspect of the invention, provided is a process for forming microcapsules including the step of injecting a dispersed phase having at least a first component into a continuous phase having at least a second component, where the first component and the second component are mutually attractive, such that a film is formed by complexation of the first charged component and the second charged component.
