Water absorption in acrylic latex films was investigated. Films from post‐stabilized latices exhibited low water uptake during a long‐time immersion in water; this was caused by easier extraction of water soluble materials into water. The extraction of secondary emulsifiers was estimated by liquid chromatography; the structure of film surfaces was investigated by electron microscopy.
