Summary:This invention is concerned with polymer compositions, including polymer latices, floor polish vehicle compositions and floor polish compositions having improved high speed burnish response. The polymer compositions of this invention comprise an aqueous suspension or dispersion of a water insoluble polymer of ethylenically unsaturated monomers, said polymer having a glass transition temperature (Tg) of at least 35° C. and comprising units of iso-butyl methacrylate (IBMA) and n-butyl methacrylate (BMA). A polymer composition comprising an aqueous suspension or dispersion of a water insoluble polymer of ethylenically unsaturated monomers, said polymer having a Tg of at least 35° C. and 25% to 65% by weight units of iso-butyl methacrylate (IBMA) and n-butyl methacrylate (BMA), and 3% to 50% by weight units of at least one acidic monomer. Floor polish compositions comprising said polymer may have improved repeatable high speed burnish response.
