Abstract

Abstract A particulate or filamentary coating, preferably curable, is provided on indelible labels or heat-­recoverable articles, the coating comprising 4 to 90% by weight of an elastomeric binder incorporated in the coating in the form of an aqueous latex. Curable par­ticulate materials described include epoxies and polyesters, and rubber latices include SBS, nitrile, chloroprene, EVA, and acrylates. The use of latices can enhance adhesion, ink receptivity, and humidity tolerance of the coatings.
