Synthesis of High Solid Content Acrylic Resin by Emulsion Polymerization used as a Binder in Surface Coating

Abstract

The achievement of high solid content acrylic latex at a low viscosity obtained by copolymerization of methylmethacrylate (MMA) and butylacrylate (BA) via emulsion polymerization method. It was found that, for the semi continuous copolymerization of methylmethacrylate and butylacrylate with 63% solid content resin can be obtained through micro emulsion polymerization in presence of potassium persulphate (KPS) as a initiator. Water was used as solvent. The effect of the initiator concentration and monomer to co-monomer ratio on solid content was studied. The copolymer was characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Thermal stability of synthesized resins was studied by Thermo Gravimetric Analyzer (TGA). The high solid content acrylic polymer mostly used as a binder in paint industry because of its weatherproof& high thermal stability, productivity and economic factor.
