Abstract
Abstract Laminates are formed by providing a pressure sensitive adhesive latex characterized by a Hamilton Beach grit value of 0.03 to 3.0 and an average particle size of less than 0.5 microns and spraying the adhesive onto the substrate to be laminated with pressure sufficient to atomize and destabilize the latex. This method is particularly suitable in applications wherein at least one substrate is a relatively porous material.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
93 words
A method for applying an aqueous adhesive polymer latex to a substrate as raised, spaced deposits which comprises spraying an aqueous pressure sensitive adhesive polymer latex having glass transition temperature of -10° to -80° C., a surface tension of at least 42 dynes/cm 2 , a viscosity of 25 to 2,000 cps, a Hamilton Beach grit value of 0.03 to 3.0 and an average particles size of less than 0.5 microns, said spraying occurring in an atmosphere essentially free of volatile basic compounds at a pressure sufficient to atomize and destabilize the latex.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
93 words
A method for applying an aqueous adhesive polymer latex to a substrate as raised, spaced deposits which comprises spraying an aqueous pressure sensitive adhesive polymer latex having glass transition temperature of -10° to -80° C., a surface tension of at least 42 dynes/cm 2 , a viscosity of 25 to 2,000 cps, a Hamilton Beach grit value of 0.03 to 3.0 and an average particles size of less than 0.5 microns, said spraying occurring in an atmosphere essentially free of volatile basic compounds at a pressure sufficient to atomize and destabilize the latex.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
19 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the Hamilton Beach grit value is within the range of 0.1 to 0.5.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
