Abstract
Abstract Composites of matter having properties that make them strong adhesives to various substrates, especially to polar substrates. These adhesive blends comprise medium density polyethylene, linear low density polyethylene and a high density polyethylene grafted with or containing in its main chain unsaturated or saturated carboxylic acids or derivatives. The disclosure also includes composite structures having one or more substrates with the adhesive blend adhered thereto and to methods of making these composites.
