Abstract: The present invention therefore relates to aqueous polymer latices of copolymers obtainable by aqueous emulsion polymerisation of ethylenically unsaturated monomers M, which comprise i. 5 to 90% by weight, in particular 10 to 70% by weight, especially 10 to 50% by weight, based on the total amount of monomers M, of a monomer M1, which is 1-hexyl acrylate; ii. 0 to 70% by weight, based on the total amount of monomers M, of at least one monomer M2, which is selected from C2- C5-alkyl esters of acrylic acid, except for tert-butyl acrylate, C7-C20-alkyl esters of acrylic acid and C5-C20-alkyl esters of methacrylic acid and mixtures thereof; iii. 5 to 70% by weight, based on the total amount of monomers M, of at least one monomer M3, which is selected from tert-butyl acrylate, C1-C4-alkyl esters of methacrylic acid, C5-C20-cycloalkyl esters of acrylic acid, C5-C20-cycloalkyl esters of methacrylic acid, C5-C20-cycloalkylmethyl esters of acrylic acid, C5-C20-cycloalkylmethyl esters of methacrylic acid, where cycloalkyl in the aforementioned monomers is mono-, bi- or tricyclic and where 1 or 2 nonadjacent CH2 moieties of cycloalkyl may be replaced by oxygen atoms and where cycloalkyl may be unsubstituted or carry 1, 2, 3 or 4 methyl groups, and monovinyl aromatic monomers, methylene-gamma- butyrolactone and mixtures thereof; where the total amount of monomers M1 and M2 is in the range from 10 to 90% by weight, based on the total amount of ethylenically unsaturated monomers M, and where the total amount of monomers M1, M2 and M3 is at least 90% by weight, based on the total amount of ethylenically unsaturated monomers M. The present invention also relates to a process for producing the aqueous polymer latices of the present invention. The present invention also relates to the use of these polymer latices as binders in waterborne coating compositions and waterborne adhesive compositions, in particular as binders in waterborne coating compositions.
