Abstract
Abstract Adhesives prepared by dissolving polyvinyl alcohol, a filler and a water-soluble boron compound in water are described. These adhesives are "cold-set" adhesives which are liquid at a temperature of 60° C. or more, but lose their fluidity to gelatinize on cooling at a temperature higher than 20° C., they are very useful for a cold corrugation system.
