Abstract

Abstract This invention provides a pressure sensitive adhesive composition comprising an acrylic copolymer component (A) which is at least in part an acetoacetyl group-containing acrylic copolymer and at least one curing component (B) selected from the class consisting of isocyanate compounds, epoxy compounds, aldehyde compounds, non-amino resin amine compounds, metal salts, metal alkoxides, metal chelate compounds, ammonium salts and hydrazine compounds. This adhesive composition is well-balanced in the triad of tack, adhesion, cohesion in adhesion technology and can be advantageously used in various applications such as adhesive tapes and labels.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 60 words
A curable pressure sensitive adhesive composition comprising, (A) an acrylic copolymer component containing an acetoacetyl group, and (B) a curing component selected from the group consisting of isocyanate compounds, epoxy compounds, aldehyde compounds, non-amino resin amine compounds, metal salts, metal alkoxides, metal chelate compounds, ammonium salts and hydrazine compounds, said composition having an adhesive strength of at least 900 g/inch.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 60 words
A curable pressure sensitive adhesive composition comprising, (A) an acrylic copolymer component containing an acetoacetyl group, and (B) a curing component selected from the group consisting of isocyanate compounds, epoxy compounds, aldehyde compounds, non-amino resin amine compounds, metal salts, metal alkoxides, metal chelate compounds, ammonium salts and hydrazine compounds, said composition having an adhesive strength of at least 900 g/inch.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 45 words
A curable pressure sensitive adhesive composition according to claim 1 wherein the acetoacetyl group content of said acetoacetyl group-containing acrylic copolymer is 0.01 to 40 weight percent and the acetoacetyl group content of the whole acrylic copolymer component (A) is 0.01 to 20 weight percent.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 34 words
