(co)polymer-acrylic block copolymers and coating compositions containing the same

Abstract

A (co)polymer(A)-acrylic block copolymer obtainable by reacting reactants comprising an acrylic material with a (co)polymer(A) is disclosed. The (co)polymer(A) comprises a substantially terminal ethylenically unsaturated functional group. The acrylic material is reacted with the (co)polymer(A) so that the acrylic material bonds to the (co)polymer(A) via the substantially terminal ethylenically unsaturated functional group. The disclosure extends to a coating composition comprising the block copolymer; articles, such as a package, packaging, a vehicle, a structure, or parts thereof coated with the coating composition; and methods of making the same.
