Disclosed is a copolymer of a dextrin and at least two hydrophobic monomers made up of styrene and at least one straight or branched acrylic C1-C4 ester. The invention also relates to the manufacturing method thereof and to the use thereof in paper coating. The copolymer has high dextrin content (>60 wt % relative to the weight of the dextrin and the hydrophobic monomers) so as to favor the biosourced aspect of the material, and provides very good hydrophobicity for the paper sheet.

Described herein is a method of using aqueous polymer dispersions, which are obtainable by radical aqueous emulsion polymerization in the presence of a degraded starch as an opacifier in liquid formulations. Also described herein is a process for producing the aqueous polymer dispersions. Also described herein are liquid formulations, such as detergent formulations and liquid cosmetic preparations, which contain at least one aqueous polymer dispersion.
