Abstract:
A hot melt adhesive composed of a styrene-butadiene-styrene polymer having a relatively high diblock content and styrene content, a second styrenic block copolymer having a lower diblock content than the styrene-butadiene-styrene polymer, which is preferably a styrene-isoprene-styrene polymer, together with tackifying resin, and liquid plasticizer. The preferred styrene-butadiene-styrene polymer contains a styrene content of greater than 30 percent and a diblock content greater than 30 percent by weight. When used in conjunction with a styrene-isoprene-styrene polymer, the hot melt composition provides improved peel strength at 5° C., and when used as a pad attachment positioning adhesive, did not exhibit adhesive transfer at 40° C.

Abstract:
A hot melt adhesive composed of an ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer, a hydrogenated styrenic block copolymer, a tackifying resin, and a liquid plasticizer. The preferred ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer has a vinyl acetate content between 8 and 28 percent by weight, and the preferred hydrogenated styrenic block copolymer is a styrene-ethylene-butylene-styrene having about 30% styrene content and essentially no diblock. The hot melt gives excellent peel strength when used as a construction adhesive for disposable nonwoven articles. It can also be formulated to exhibit very low bleed through and blocking characteristics when used on low basis weight nonwoven fabrics.
Abstract:
A novel hot melt adhesive for bonding labels on plastic bottles is described. The adhesive comprises a blend of a styrenic block copolymer, an ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer, a tackifying resin, petrolatum and optionally a wax. The use of petrolatum instead of mineral oil provides for better elevated temperature resistance than traditional formulations.
