Abstract

The present invention relates to a composition, an aqueous dispersion of polymer particles functionalized with acetoacetoxyethyl groups and a CO 2 abating additive, an ion exchange resin functionalized with amine groups or quaternary ammonium salt groups or a combination thereof. The composition is useful for CO 2 abatement in acetoacetoxy functionalized latexes compositions.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A composition comprising a) an aqueous dispersion of acrylic-based polymer particles functionalized with from 1 to 20 weight percent structural units of an acetoacetoxy functionalized monomer, based on the weight of the polymer particles; and b) an ion exchange resin functionalized with amine groups or quaternary ammonium salt groups or a combination thereof; wherein the composition comprises a substantial absence of ammonium cation; and the ratio of amine or quaternary ammonium salt groups of the ion exchange resin to structural units of the acetoacetoxy functionalized monomer is from 10 to 500 meq/mole of ion exchange resin per mole of structural units of the acetoacetoxy functionalized monomer.

2. The composition of claim 1 wherein the ion exchange resin is functionalized with quaternary ammonium salt groups.

3. The composition of claim 1 wherein the ion exchange resin is functionalized with primary, secondary, or tertiary amine groups or a combination thereof.

4. The composition of claim 3 wherein the acetoacetoxy functionalized monomer is an acetoacetoxy-C 1 -C 4 -alkyl acrylate, an acetoacetoxy-C 1 -C 4 -alkyl methacrylate, or an acetoacetoxy-C 1 -C 4 -alkyl acrylamide.

5. The composition of claim 4 wherein the acetoacetoxy functionalized monomer is acetoacetoxyethyl methacrylate, acetoacetoxyethyl acrylate, acetoacetoxyethyl acrylamide, acetoacetoxyethyl methacrylamide, acetoacetoxypropyl acrylate, acetoacetoxypropyl methacrylate, acetoacetoxybutyl acrylate, or acetoacetoxybutyl methacrylate.

6. The composition of claim 2 which comprises not greater than 0.1 mole of ammonium cation per mole of structural units of the acetoacetoxy monomer, wherein the acrylic-based polymer particles comprise from 1 to 10 weight percent structural units of the acetoacetoxy functionalized monomer; the ratio of amine or quaternary ammonium salt groups to structural units of the acetoacetoxy functionalized monomer is from 20 to 200 meq/mole of ion exchange resin per mole of structural units of the acetoacetoxy functionalized monomer; and the pH of the composition is greater than 7.0.

7. The composition of claim 6 which comprises not greater than 0.01 mole of ammonium cation per mole of structural units of the acetoacetoxy monomer, wherein the acetoacetoxy functionalized monomer is acetoacetoxyethyl methacrylate; the ratio of amine or quaternary ammonium salt groups to structural units of acetoacetoxyethyl methacrylate is from 40 to 100 meq/mole of ion exchange resin per mole of structural units of the acetoacetoxy functionalized monomer and the pH of the composition is at least 7.5.

8. The composition of claim 7 which comprises not greater than 0.001 mole of ammonium cation per mole of structural units of acetoacetoxyethyl methacrylate.

9. The composition of claim 1 which further includes one or more materials selected from the group consisting of pigments; defoamers; surfactants; dispersants; rheology modifiers; coalescents; and neutralizing agents.

10. A process for forming a CO 2 -abating composition comprising the step of contacting an aqueous dispersion of acrylic-based polymer particles functionalized with 1 to 20 weight percent structural units of an acetoacetoxy functionalized monomer, based on the weight of the polymer particles, with an ion exchange resin functionalized with amine groups or quaternary ammonium salt groups or a combination thereof; wherein the ratio of amine or quaternary ammonium salt groups of the ion exchange resin to structural units of the acetoacetoxy functionalized monomer is from 10 to 500 meq/mol of ion exchange resin per mole of structural units of the acetoacetoxy functionalized monomer, wherein substantially no ammonia or a generator of ammonia is added in the step.
