Method for preparing a polyolefin coating for a paper substrate

Abstract

The present invention relates to a method comprising the steps of a) applying onto paper a composition comprising an aqueous dispersion of poly-C2-C3-olefin particles, a dispersant, and a C5-C26-alkyl primary fatty amide; and b) drying the composition to form a coating having a coat weight in the range of from 1 g / m2 to 20 g / m2. The method of the present invention is useful for preparing coatings on paper with desirable moisture vapor transition rate and coefficient of friction properties.
