The $\alpha$,$omega$-diacrylate poly(dimethylsiloxane) (DA-PDMS) containing vinyl ester of versatic acid/vinyl acetate (Veova-10/VAc) was prepared by emulsion copolymerization of (DA-PDMS), Veova-10 (with VAc), and auxiliary agents at $85^{\circ}C$ in the presence of ammonium peroxodisulfate (APS) as an initiator. Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and nonylphenol ethylene oxide-40 units (NP-40) were used as anionic and nonionic emulsifiers, respectively. The resulting copolymers were characterized by using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). Thermal properties of the copolymers were studied by using thermogravimetric analysis(TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The morphology of copolymers was also investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and then the effects of variables such as temperature, agitation speed, surfactant kinds, molecular weights, initiator, and DA-PDMS concentrations on the properties of the silicone-containing Veova-10/VAc emulsions were examined. The calculation of monomer conversion versus time histories indicates that by increasing the DA-PDMS concentration the polymerization rate and the number of polymer particles decrease, respectively.

A novel silicone (Si) containing vinylic monomer, N-(3-(triethoxysilyl)propyl) methacrylamide (TESPMA), based on 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) and methacryloyl chloride (MCl) has been synthesized for formulation of waterborne polyurethane (WPU). Two types of vinyl group containing Si, methacryloxypropyltriethoxysilane (MPTES) and triethoxyvinylsilane (TEVS), have been used as coupling reagents for comparison of the effects of Si kinds with TESPMA on the WPU. A series of new siliconized WPU, vinyl acetate/vinyl ester of versatic acid (VAc-Veova), TESPMA, MPTES and TEVS hybrid latexes have been successfully prepared by emulsion polymerization in the presence of WPU dispersion.
