Abstract

Aqueous polymer emulsions whose polymer component essentially consists of A) from 15 to 50% by weight of copolymer A of I from 25 to 98.5% by weight of a C.sub.1 -C.sub.20 -alkyl acrylate or methacrylate or a mixture of these esters, II from 0 to 60% by weight of a monomer I or a vinylaromatic, III from 1.5 to 15% by weight of a copolymerizable olefinically unsaturated carboxylic acid or one of its anhydrides which contain not more than 10 carbon atoms and IV not more than 30% by weight of other copolymerizable compounds and B) from 50 to 85% by weight of a solution polymer B consisting exclusively of the comonomers I, II and IV, obtainable by solution polymerization of one of these components (A) or (B) in an organic solvent, followed by solution polymerization of the other component in the resulting polymerization solution, dispersing the solution containing (A) and (B) in water with the addition of ammonia, and removal of the organic solvent, by distillation, to a concentration of less than 5% by weight, based on the amount of dispersion, a process for their preparation, and their use.
