Abstract
Abstract The invention relates to hot-melt pressure-sensitive adhesive compositions having a novel combination of properties. More specifically, the invention relates to polymerized terpolymer compositions containing n-butyl acrylate, N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidinone and styrene which provide pressure-sensitive adhesives. These terpolymer hot-melt pressure-sensitive adhesive compositions have good peel adhesion, excellent shear adhesion and permanent tack.
