Abstract
The present invention relates to a liquid suspension of a high molecular weight, water-soluble polymer or water-soluble salt prepared by admixing and water-soluble polymer with a hydrocarbon carrier fluid and a suspending agent comprising an aqueous emulsion of a copolymer comprising a water-insoluble and substantially hydrocarbon-insoluble polymer consisting of particles having a dry weight average particle size of below 10 .mu.m and which is formed from monomers of which 80% to 100% are hydrophobic, 30 to 100% are polar and 0% to 20% are hydrophilic. More particularly, the copolymer comprises from about 80% to about 100% C.sub.1-30 alkyl methacrylate monomers and from about 0% to about 20% hydrophilic monomers. Preferably, the copolymer comprises 90% to 100% 2-ethylhexylacrylate and from about 0.5% to about 10% acrylic acid. The liquid suspension is capable of supporting about 5 pounds of water-soluble polymer per gallon of suspension.
