Zusammenfassung: | Process for preparing a pressure sensitive adhesive having enhanced resistance to water-whitening comprising the steps of: (a) forming a mixture in water of (i) a polymerization initiator which produces radicals by a thermal decomposition and (ii) a water-dispersible polymerizable surfactant with a terminal allyl amine moiety; polyoxyalkylene-1-(allyloxymethyl)alkyl ether sulfate salt(s) and/or mixtures thereof, (b) forming a polymerizable aqueous pre-emulsion comprising (i) a hydrophobic monomer mixture comprising at least one alkyl (meth)acrylate ester of a C1-4 alcohol and at least one styrenic monomer, (ii) one or more hydrophilic monomer(s), and (iii) of at least one partially hydrophilic monomer(s) selected from N-vinyl pyrrolidone; alkyl (meth)acrylate esters of methanol or ethanol; and/or mixtures thereof, the pre-emulsion further comprising surfactant, (c) contacting the pre-emulsion with the water mixture; and (d) continuously adding said pre-emulsion to said mixture to polymerize said pre-emulsion to form a latex emulsion. |
