Abstract:
A polymer composition having substantial adhesiveness is prepared by copolymerizing an alkylacrylate and maleic anhydride in the presence of an ethylene-vinylacetate copolymer and a hydrocarbon base selected from the group consisting of a hydrocarbon wax, a low molecular weight non-aromatic hydrocarbon resin, a chlorinated hydrocarbon wax and a chlorinated low molecular weight non-aromatic hydrocarbon resin having a molecular weight of 200-20,000.
