Abstract
The invention relates to starch, derived from amylopectin potatoes, which is preferably in a modified and/or derivatised form. Said starch is an especially advantages protective colloid for use in conducting emulsion polymerization reactions. The invention also relates to emulsion [co]polymerization methods and polymer dispersions produced thereby.
Claims8
An aqueous polymer dispersion made by a process which comprises:
- obtaining a starch including amylopectin potato starch from potatoes while inhibiting amylose formation;
- (co)polymerizing an emulsion;
- and
- stabilizing the emulsion with the starch.
