A process in accordance with claim 1 wherein subsequent to polymerization there is formed a polymer of poly(vinyl sulfonate-styrene-butyl acrylate-acrylic acid). 41. A process in accordance with claim 6 wherein said styrene functional monomer is selected from the group consisting of styrene, α-methylstyrene, 4-methylstyrene, 3-chlorostyrene, 2,5-dichlorostyrene, 4-bromostyrene, 4-tertbutylstyrene, and 4- methoxystryrene. 43. A process for the preparation of an ink consisting essentially of mixing an ink vehicle, a colorant and a latex generated by the polymerization of a mixture of olefinic monomers, wherein at least one of said olefinic monomers is an ionic sulfonate monomer and which polymerization is accomplished in the presence of an anionic surfactant, and a nonionic surfactant. 24Page: Previous 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24Last modified: November 3, 2007
