Abstract

Abstract A novel moisture-curable polymer useful as a pressure sensitive adhesive, a paint, a sealant, etc. obtained by polymerizing a polymerizable monomer in the presence of an organic polymer having at least one reactive silicon-containing functional group in the molecule on the average. A pressure sensitive adhesive composition having excellent adhesive property as well as excellent initial tackiness, heat resistance, workability and weather resistance comprising a polymer obtained by polymerizing a polymerizable monomer in the presence of (A) an organic polymer having at least one reactive silicon functional group in the molecule on the average and/or (B) an organic polymer having at least one olefin group in the molecule on the average. The composition is also useful as a sealant, a coating material, a packing, an electric insulation, a corrosionproof, a masking and a surface-protection.
