Abstract

Abstract A spray process for the deposition of carboxyl-containing adhesive latices as discrete droplets wherein the droplets are maintained as raised, spaced deposits on the substrate for lamination is provided. The adhesive latex is sprayed at a low viscosity but prior to contact with the substrate the viscosity of the latex droplets is increased so that upon striking the substrate the droplets remain as raised, spaced deposits rather than coalescing to form a continuous adhesive layer or being absorbed by the substrate. Laminates obtained with the present spray process have increased resistance to delamination, good flexibility and hand.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 79 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the adhesive polymer latex contains (a) one or more Alpha , Beta -olefinically unsaturated carboxylic acid monomers containing from three to 12 carbon atoms, (b) an acrylic ester of the formula wherein R is selected from hydrogen, methyl or ethyl and R1 is a hydrocarbon radical containing from 1 to 12 carbon atoms and (c) up to 49 percent by weight based on total polymer composition of one or more vinylidene comonomers, interpolymerized.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 27 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the basic compound is selected from the group consisting of ammonia or an amine containing up to about 20 carbon atoms.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 107 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the viscosity of the latex droplets is greater than about 40,000 centipoise, the basic compound is selected from the group consisting of ammonia or an amine containing up to about 20 carbon atoms and the adhesive polymer latex contains one or more Alpha , Beta -ole-finically unsaturated carboxylic acid monomer containing from 3 to 12 carbon atoms interpolymerizeD with (b) an acrylic ester of the formula wherein R is selected from hydrogen, methyl or ethyl and R1 is an alkyl radical containing from 1 to 8 carbon atoms and (c) up to 40 percent by weight one or more vinylidene comonomers.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 23 words
The process of claim 4 wherein the average diameter of the adhesive latex deposits is between about 0.001 inch and about 0.02 inch.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 21 words
The process of claim 5 wherein the basic compound is ammonia or an amine containing up to about 8 carbon atoms.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 75 words
The process of claim 6 wherein the adhesive polymer latex contains about 50 to 99.9 percent by weight (b), (c) is selected from the group consisting of acrylonitrile, methacrylonitrile, acrylamide, methacrylamide or a compound having the formula wherein R2 is hydrogen or an alkyl group containing from one to four carbon atoms and x is an integer from 1 to 4, and about 0.1 to 10 percent by weight methacrylic acid or acrylic acid overpolymerized.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 28 words
The process of claim 5 wherein the adhesive polymer latex is sprayed onto a textile substrate and the average droplet density is between about 40,000 and 1,000 droplets/inch2.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 21 words
The process of claim 8 wherein the basic compound is ammonia or an amine containing up to about eight carbon atoms.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 25 words
The process of claim 9 wherein after deposition of the adhesive latex the textile substrate is additionally exposed to ammonia or amine prior to lamination.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 18 words
The process of claim 1 wherein a second layer is bonded to the adhesive surface of said substrate.
