Abstract
Abstract This invention relates to hot melt adhesive compositions which includes a neutralized sulfonated elastomeric polymer having about 5 to about 50 meq. of neutralized sulfonate groups per 100 grams of the neutralized sulfonated elastomeric polymer, and about 25 to about 250 parts by weight of a hydrocarbon resin of a petroleum or coal tar distillate, aliphatic dienes and mono and diolefins, cyclic olefins of 5 or 6 carbon atoms and hydrogenated poly cyclics per 100 parts by weight of the neutralized sulfonated EPDM terpolymer.

Claim 2
Dependent Claim
65 words
A hot melt adhesive composition which comprises: (a) a neutralized sulfonated EPDM terpolymer having about 5 to about 50 meq. of neutralized sulfonated groups per 100 grams of said neutralized sulfonated EPDM terpolymer; and (b) about 25 to about 250 parts by weight of a hydrocarbon resin of a petroleum or coal tar distillate per 100 parts by weight of said neutralized sulfonated EPDM terpolymer.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
47 words
A hot melt adhesive composition according to claim 1, wherein said EPDM terpolymer consists of about 40 to about 65 weight percent of ethylene, of about 25 to about 53 weight percent of propylene and of about 2 to about 10 weight percent of a non-conjugated diene.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
15 words
A hot melt adhesive composition according to claim 2, wherein said non-conjugated diene is 5-ethylidene-2-norbornene.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
43 words
A hot melt adhesive composition according to claim 1, wherein said neutralized sulfonate groups are neutralized with a counterion selected from the group consisting of ammonium, aluminum, antimony, iron, lead and Groups IA, IIA, IB and IIB of the Periodic Table of Elements.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
19 words
