Abstract

Abstract PCT No. PCT/EP88/00176 Sec. 371 Date Oct. 2, 1989 Sec. 102(e) Date Oct. 2, 1989 PCT Filed Mar. 4, 1988 PCT Pub. No. WO89/08128 PCT Pub. Date Sep. 8, 1989.A block copolymer composition comprising 40-85% by weight of a block copolymer A1-B1 from an aromatic vinyl compound and a conjugated diene, respectively, A1 being <20% by weight of (A1+B1), A1 and B1 having a molecular weight >12,000 and >150,000, respectively, and 15-60% by weight of a block copolymer A2-B2-A3 from an aromatic vinyl compound, a conjugated diene and aromatic vinyl compound, respectively, A2+A3 being >20% by weight of A2+B2+A3, A2 and A3 having a molecular weight >12,000 and (molecular weight of B2)</=(molecular weight of B1)/1.5. an adhesive composition comprising 100 parts by weight (pbw) of said block copolymer composition, 20-300 pbw of a tackifying resin, and 0-200 pbw of a softener, and a process for the preparation of said adhesive composition by mixing the components in question.
