[0036] Some embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail in the following examples.

[0037] The abbreviations for the monomers used in the examples are listed in Table 1. [Table 1]

[0038] Example SC: Multistage Polymer A 2-liter round-bottom flask (equipped with an overhead stirrer, thermocouple, condenser, and inlets for adding monomer and initiator) was charged with deionized water (262.0 g), 50% CAVASOL™ W7 MTL (a cyclodextrin from Wacker Fine Chemicals) (15.2 g), 31.5% Aerosol™ A102 surfactant (from Solvay) (20.5 g), and sodium carbonate (3.4 g). The contents of the flask were stirred and heated to 85° C.

[0039] An acrylate-rich monomer emulsion was prepared by placing deionized water (294.9 g) and 31.5% Aerosol™ A102 surfactant (8.7 g) in a first tank and beginning agitation. Once the surfactant was incorporated into the water, the following monomers were added slowly to the first tank with continued agitation: BA (182.4 g), BMA (264.5 g), MMA (152.0 g), MAA (9.1 g), and ALMA (0.5 g).

[0040] A carbosiloxane-rich monomer emulsion was prepared by placing deionized water (76.0 g) and 31.5% Aerosol™ A102 surfactant (2.2 g) in a second vessel and beginning agitation. Once the surfactant was incorporated into the water, the following monomers were slowly added to the second vessel with continued agitation: MD'M-ALMA (121.6 g), MMA (28.1 g), and MAA (2.3 g). The carbosiloxane-rich monomer emulsion was further emulsified using homogenization at 7,000 rpm for 10 minutes.

[0041] A cofeed catalyst solution was prepared containing sodium persulfate (1.5 g) and deionized water (40.3 g).

[0042] A cofeed buffer solution was prepared containing sodium carbonate (1.5 g) and deionized water (40.3 g).

[0043] At a reaction set-point temperature of 85°C, 34.2 g of the acrylate-rich monomer emulsion from the first tank was charged to the contents of the flask, along with a deionized water rinse (15.2 g). An initiator solution of sodium persulfate (3.4 g) in deionized water (15.2 g) was then added to the contents of the flask. After the first polymerization, the remainder of the acrylate-rich monomer emulsion in the first tank was co-fed to the contents of the flask at a rate of 6.05 g / min for 15 minutes, then at a rate of 13.01 g / min for 60 minutes. Simultaneously with the co-feed of the acrylate-rich monomer emulsion, a co-feed catalyst solution and a co-feed buffer solution were added to the reactor contents at a rate of 0.44 g / min for 95 minutes.

[0044] Following the addition of the acrylate-rich monomer emulsion, the carbosiloxane-rich monomer emulsion in the second vessel was added to the reactor contents at a rate of 11.51 g / min over a period of 20 minutes. After completion of the various feeds, the contents of the flask were monitored to reduce the amount of residual monomer to yield the product multi-stage polymer.

[0045] Examples S1 to S4: Multistage Polymers Multistage polymers were prepared substantially as described in Example SC, with appropriate modifications to reflect the total weight percent of the acrylate-rich stage and carbosiloxane-rich stage in each multistage polymer of Examples S1-S4, using the acrylate-rich stage monomers and carbosiloxane-rich stage monomers in each stage as set forth in Table 2. [Table 2]

[0046] Polymer properties The product multistage polymers prepared according to Comparative Example SC and Examples S1-S4 were analyzed for percent solids, pH, average particle size (using a Brookhaven Instruments BI-90 particle size analyzer), and glass transition temperature, T, measured using a TA Instruments Model 2920 Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC). g The results are shown in Table 3. [Table 3]

[0047] Mechanical properties of neat polymer films The mechanical properties of the films were evaluated by tensile testing to determine the tensile strength, toughness, and flexibility of the films. Neat polymer films were prepared by casting 20 g of the polymer produced according to Comparative Example SC and each of Examples S1-S4 into a 9.4 cm diameter Petri dish. The polymer latex was air-dried in an environmentally controlled room (72°F, 50% RH) until a dry film was formed. The dried film was then peeled from the Petri dish and cut into three dog-bone pieces measuring 0.75 inches long and 0.25 inches wide at the neck. The dog-bone pieces were then tested in an environmentally controlled room (72°F, 50% RH) using an Instron 5565 tensile tester at an extension rate of 10 inches / minute. The results of the tensile tests are shown in Table 4. [Table 4]

[0048] Water- and oil-repellent The water and sebum repellency of a film is governed by surface energy. High long-term water and sebum repellency is desired in various applications, such as architectural coatings and personal care applications (i.e., providing long-term active deposition and abrasion resistance benefits, particularly in color cosmetics, sunscreens, and pollution control products). Water and sebum repellency can be evaluated by measuring the water and sebum contact angles from the film surface. Specifically, films were prepared from the multistage polymers of the products prepared according to Comparative Example SC and Examples S1-S4 by drawdown on black plastic charts (available from LENETA P121-16) using a 3-mil or 6-mil doctor blade. The drawn films were air-dried in an environmentally controlled room (72°F and 50% RH) for at least 72 hours. The dried films were then placed in a fog box for at least 48 hours to remove residual surfactant from the film surface. After processing in the fog box, the films were allowed to air dry in an environmentally controlled room (72°F and 50% RH) for at least 24 hours before measurements were taken. A droplet of water or sebum was deposited on the substrate using a drop shape analyzer (Kruss DSA100), and then both the water contact angle and the sebum contact angle were measured at approximately 4 seconds and 250 seconds. For the sebum contact angle measurements, an artificial sebum solution was prepared having the composition listed in Table 5. The results of the water contact angle and sebum contact angle measurements are shown in Table 6. [Table 5] [Table 6]

[0049] Formulation Example G1: Generic Color Cosmetic Formulation A color cosmetic formulation having a generic formulation was prepared according to Formulation Example G1 set forth in Table 7. The ingredients of Phase A were added to a beaker and mixed until uniform. The ingredients of Phase B were then slowly added to the contents of the beaker while mixing until uniform. The ingredients of Phase C were mixed in a separate vessel until uniform and then slowly added to the contents of the beaker while mixing. The test polymer of Phase D was then slowly added to the contents of the beaker while mixing until uniform. The ingredients of Phase E were then added to the contents of the beaker while mixing until uniform. The ingredients of Phase F were then added to the contents of the beaker. The contents of the beaker were then mixed until uniform to provide the product color cosmetic formulation. [Table 7]

[0050] Comparative Examples C1-C3 and Examples 1-4: Color Cosmetic Formulations The color cosmetic formulations of Comparative Examples C1-C3 and Examples 1-4 were prepared according to Formulation Example G1 using various test polymers as listed in Table 8.

[0051] Abrasion resistance The color cosmetic formulations prepared according to Comparative Examples C1-C3 and Examples 1-4 were each coated onto a white vinyl chart (available from Leneta) using a doctor blade film applicator set at a gap of 6 mil (0.1524 mm) and allowed to dry at 22°C for at least 24 hours. The color readings of each sample were then measured using a BYK-Gardner color spectrophotometer. The abrasion resistance of the deposited color cosmetic formulation films was characterized by the change in ΔE (ΔE) before and after abrasion on pre-cut bath towels (55 mm x 45 mm). The bath towels were fixed to the moving part of a robot that periodically moved back and forth at a constant speed. The films were abraded by the bath towels under a pressure of approximately 600 Pa in three abrasion cycles, each lasting 6 seconds. Readings were taken from 10 points on each deposited film. The average of the 10 readings from each film is shown in Table 8. Table 8
