AQUEOUS EMULSIONS OF FILM FORMING POLYMER PARTICLES WHICH CONTAIN SWELLABLE MOIETIES IN SUFFICIENT QUANTITY TO DISRUPT INTERPARTICLE AND FILM/SUBSTRATE ATTACHMENTS; FLOOR POLISHES AND METHODS OF PREPARATION

摘要

Emulsion polymers are disclosed which contain selectively swellable emulsion polymer functionalities and which are cross-linked before film formation to an extent that still allows the polymers to form a film upon application, which film is removable with a stripper solution containing swellant for the polymer functionality. When the polymers are formulated into sacrificial coatings, the polishes produce detergent resistant and removable finishes.
