Zusammenfassung:The present invention provides aqueous compositions for use as elastomeric roof coatings having excellent tint retention which comprise (i) one or more gradient emulsion copolymers having a weight average particle size of from 20 to 550 nm, (ii) a large particle size filler, preferably silica, (iii) one or more chromatic colorants other than a white colorant in the amount of from 0.2 to 15 wt. %, based on the total weight of solids in the composition, and (iv) other pigments, extenders or fillers, wherein the resulting composition has a particle volume concentration (% PVC) of from 20 to 65%. The present invention provides methods of making the one or more gradient emulsion copolymers.
