Presentation of an emulsion polymer composition having fast drying properties that provides floor polish coating materials having superior resistance to black heel marks, resistance to scuffing, resistance to abrasion, adhesion, and resistance to cleaning agents characteristics, and floor polish coatings obtained from this polymer emulsion. A film forming emulsion polymer composition comprising 60 wt% or greater of a first emulsion copolymer having a glass transition temperature within the range of from 10-100°C, and 40 wt% or less of a second emulsion copolymer having a glass transition temperature that is lower than that of the first emulsion copolymer and is within the range of from 0-50°C, wherein the second emulsion copolymer contains less than 10% by weight of nonionic hydrophilic units selected from the group consisting of hydroxy alkyl ester of alpha, beta unsaturated acid, vinyl alcohol, alkyl-phosphato-alkyl acrylates and methacrylates, alkyl-phosphono-alkyl acrylates and methacrylates, and alkyl amides of alpha, beta unsaturated acid. |
