Abstract (en)

The present invention provides an aqueous composition for use in waterproofing leather containing an aqueous dispersion of a silicone oil emulsified with a water-insoluble amphiphilic copolymer formed from 50 weight percent to 90 weight percent of at least one ethylenically-unsaturated hydrophobic monomer and from 10 weight percent to 50 weight percent of at least one copolymerizable water-soluble ethylenically-unsaturated acidic or basic hydrophilic comonomer; where the copolymer has a weight average molecular weight of from 2000 to 100,000; and where the ratio of silicone oil to amphiphilic copolymer by weight is from 1:5 to 8:1. A method for waterproofing leather using the aqueous composition is also provided.
