Abstract
A hollow core-shell latex particle synthesized through sequential semi-continuous emulsion polymerization method has served as a promising substitute to white inorganic pigments useful for the coating applications. Incorporating more amount of Titanium dioxide in the paint is a costly measure with diminishing returns. Severe paint defects such as phase separation, agglomeration or settling arises due to incompatibility between inorganic pigments and organic resins. Opaque polymer helps in minimizing the cost of Titania in surface coating formulations. It provides white appearance and hiding due to diffraction of incoming light in different directions. It has gained widespread importance over the years due to its unique structure and morphology. It has potential applications in other technologies such as micro-encapsulation, paper coatings and controlled release of drugs. Osmotic swelling – the most prominent approach involves the sy...
