Abstract
An aqueous dispersion comprising a copolymer which is the polymerization product of a mixture of vinylic monomers wherein from about 5% to about 90% by weight of the vinylic monomers are selected from co-esters of a drying oil acid and an unsaturated .alpha., .beta.-polymerizable unsaturated carboxylic acid, contains from about 0.5% to about 50% by weight based on the weight of the copolymer of a hydrophobic ester or partial ester of a drying oil acid and a polyol. The copolymer polymerized in the presence of the hydrophobic ester or partial ester is characterized by a relatively low gel content, and by a relatively broad, multi-nodal, molecular weight distribution, including a low molecular weight component which acts as a transient plasticizer and coalescing agent. The aqueous dispersions can be formulated into quick drying coating compositions which form smooth protective films on various substrates, without requiring volatile coalescing agents.
