Abstract: A floor polish composition comprising an aqueous emulsion which comprises as a copolymer having an average particle size of from 0.05 to 0.10 .mu.m and having a glass transition temperature of from 30.degree. to 50.degree. C. which is obtainable by polymerization of (A) to (C) described below in the presence of an alkylbenzenesulfonate containing an alkyl group having 10 to 16 carbon atoms in an amount of 0.5 to 2.5 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the total amount of (A) to (C):(A): 30 to 50% by weight of an aromatic vinyl compound,(B): 30 to 60% by weight of a (meth)acrylate, and(C): 10 to 20 % by weight of an .alpha., .beta.-ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid.

Abstract: An adhesive comprising an aqueous emulsion of a copolymer containing an ethylene unit (A), a vinyl ester unit (B), and an acetoacetyl group-containing copolymerizable monomer unit (C) in a weight ratio of (A)/(B)/(C)=(5 to 70)/100/(0.1 to 10).

Abstract: An aqueous emulsion comprising a copolymer comprising ethylene, vinyl chloride, and vinyl acetate and having a glass transition temperature of from -15.degree. to 35.degree. C., an emulsion of a rosin ester having a softening point of from 110.degree. to 150.degree. C. and a Gardner color scale of not higher than 5, and an emulsion of a wax having a melting point of from 50.degree. to 100.degree. C., and an easily macerating water-proof paper obtained by coating the aqueous emulsion on at least one surface of a base paper. The paper coated with the aqueous emulsion has excellent moisture-proof property, water repellency, and easily macerating property, and does not cause blocking.
