Abstract
Abstract The present invention comprises an acrylic adhesive composition having improved stability comprising polymerizable acrylic monomers in combination with polymerization initiators therefor; the improvement further comprises incorporating in the homogenous mixture of acrylic monomers and an initiator, including other substances to augment its performance as an adhesive,an effective amount of an inhibitor, being hydroquinone, and an effective amount of accelerator, being alpha amino phosphonic acid, or an alkali metal salt thereof.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
52 words
An acrylic adhesive composition having improved stability, comprising: a free radical polymerizable monomer selected from the group consisting of acrylate and methacrylate esters; a free radical initiator; and an amount of hydroquinone and an amount of an alpha amino phosphonic acid or an alkali metal salt thereof effective to avoid premature gelation.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
52 words
An acrylic adhesive composition having improved stability, comprising: a free radical polymerizable monomer selected from the group consisting of acrylate and methacrylate esters; a free radical initiator; and an amount of hydroquinone and an amount of an alpha amino phosphonic acid or an alkali metal salt thereof effective to avoid premature gelation.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
71 words
An acrylic adhesive composition having improved stability, comprising: a free radical polymerizable monomer selected from the group consisting of acrylate and methacrylate esters; a free radical initiator; hydroquinone, being present in a range of from about 300 to about 1000 ppm (0.03-0.10% by weight); and alpha amino phosphonic acid or an alkali metal salt thereof, being present in a range from about 300 to about 1000 ppm (0.03-0.10 percent by weight).
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
71 words
An acrylic adhesive composition having improved stability, comprising: a free radical polymerizable monomer selected from the group consisting of acrylate and methacrylate esters; a free radical initiator; hydroquinone, being present in a range of from about 300 to about 1000 ppm (0.03-0.10% by weight); and alpha amino phosphonic acid or an alkali metal salt thereof, being present in a range from about 300 to about 1000 ppm (0.03-0.10 percent by weight).
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
123 words
An acrylic adhesive composition, having improved stability, comprising two parts: a first part comprising: (a) from about 50 to about 97 percent by weight of free radical polymerizable acrylate or methacrylate monomers; (b) from about 1 to about 25 percent by weight of an impact-modifying additive selected from the group consisting of elastomers, acrylate oligomers and methacrylate oligomers; (c) from about 1 to about 10 percent by weight of a free radical initiator; (d) from about 300 to about 1000 ppm (0.03 to 0.10 percent by weight) of hydroquinone; and (e) from about 300 to about 1000 ppm (0.03 to 0.10 percent by weight) of alpha amino phosphonic acid, or an alkali metal salt thereof; and a second part comprising a suitable accelerator.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
123 words
An acrylic adhesive composition, having improved stability, comprising two parts: a first part comprising: (a) from about 50 to about 97 percent by weight of free radical polymerizable acrylate or methacrylate monomers; (b) from about 1 to about 25 percent by weight of an impact-modifying additive selected from the group consisting of elastomers, acrylate oligomers and methacrylate oligomers; (c) from about 1 to about 10 percent by weight of a free radical initiator; (d) from about 300 to about 1000 ppm (0.03 to 0.10 percent by weight) of hydroquinone; and (e) from about 300 to about 1000 ppm (0.03 to 0.10 percent by weight) of alpha amino phosphonic acid, or an alkali metal salt thereof; and a second part comprising a suitable accelerator.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
21 words
An acrylic adhesive composition, as described in claims 1 and 2, wherein the alpha amino phosphonic acid is aminotri(methylene phosphonic acid).
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
25 words
