METHOD OF USING MICROPARTICLE OF CROSSLINKED POLYMER AS FILLER SUBSTITUTE AND/OR CROSSLINKED FILLER IN PAINT

摘要

The invention relates to the use of crosslinked polymer microparticles having an average particle size of at most 5 mu m and a glass transition temperature (Tg) of at least +30 DEG C. in aqueous paint preparations as filler and/or as partial substitute of white pigments, in particular of titanium dioxide. Among other things, the corresponding paints show increased spreading power, less tendency for sedimentation and reduced crater formation.
