For homogeneous emulsion copolymers the process of film formation is correlated qualitatively with the viscoelastic properties of the polymer as is predicted by the theories of film formation. With highly water-soluble comonomers heterogeneous core-shell particles may be obtained with a shell of hydrophilic polymer which influences the structure and the properties of the films significantly. Heterogeneous polymer particles with a multi-phase morphology due to the presence of incompatible polymers of different glass transition temperature show a further stage of film formation with a distinct change in film morphology.
