Abstract: A polymer composition comprising (a) a fluorine-containing polymer and (b) a functional group-containing polymer which contains a structural unit originating from an alkyl (meth)acrylate and a structural unit originating from at least one monomer selected from the group consisting of a sulfonic acid group-containing unsaturated monomer, an amide group-containing unsaturated monomer, and a sulfonic acid group and amide group-containing unsaturated monomer is provided.

Abstract: The present invention provides an emulsion composition which has been increased in sulfonic group content, yet has sufficient water resistance and has been enhanced in properties such as small resistance, film-forming property, etc. The emulsion composition contains (A) a water-based solvent, (B) an organic solvent, (C) a sulfonic group-containing polymer soluble in the component (A), and (D) a polymer soluble in the component (B) but insoluble in water. This emulsion composition is enhanced in small resistance and yet has sufficient water resistance and film-forming property.

Abstract: In order to store texture images in a smaller data amount, there is provided a method for recording a texture recording image 28 which contains a number of texture images in a memory to thereby record the images of the number of texture in the memory. In this method, the texture images are arranged on the texture recording image 28 based on the shape information of each texture such that a region not being occupied by the images can be reduced on the texture recording image 28.

Abstract: An aqueous coating composition comprising (A) an aqueous dispersing material which is a copolymer having a glass transition temperature (Tg) of 80° C. or less which is obtained by the copolymerization a specific unsaturated carboxylic acid, (meth)acrylic acid alkyl ester, and other monomers and (B) a specific aminoalcohol compound in a specific proportion. The aqueous coating composition is safe due to absence of heavy metals, produces excellent gloss and has a fine external appearance when coated, and exhibits superior durability and water resistance which are represented by black heel mark resistance and anti-scuff properties. The composition is particularly useful as a floor coating material.
