Abstract.

Polymer emulsion having ethyleneurea groups at particle surfaces was produced by emulsifier-free seeded emulsion copolymerization of n-butyl methacrylate (BMA) and methacrylamide ethylethyleneurea (EU) with poly(BMA) seed particles utilizing the starved-fed monomer addition method. This emulsion film, prepared by casting the polymer emulsion on an alkyd resin plate, had a superior adhesion in water, as well as on stainless steel. Such superior wet adhesions seem to be based on a large amount of EU predominantly localized at the particle surfaces.
