Abstract
Abstract The use of casein as renewable resource to produce eco-friendly hybrid latexes has an increasing importance in industrial applications especially for high performance waterborne coatings. This work describes the synthesis of hybrid acrylic–casein latexes by emulsion polymerization of acrylic monomers in presence of varied casein concentration, and in absence of emulsifier which is usually a challenge for preparing stable nanocomposite latexes. The production and microstructure characterization of the casein–acrylic nanoparticles, as well as the properties of the films obtained from the hybrid latexes are here reported. The synthesized acrylic–casein latexes are able to form films with promising properties for a potential application as waterborne bio-based coatings.
