Claim 1
Independent Claim
124 words
A hot melt adhesive composition comprising a tackifying resin and a block comprising at least one conjugated diolefin block having a molecular weight from 20,000 to 175,000, at least one vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon block having a molecular weight from 4,000 to 30,000 and at least one acrylic monomer block having a molecular weight from 100 to 30,000 with the structure ##STR3## wherein R 1 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, phenyl and alkyl radicals which are linear or branched and contain from 1 to 10 carbon atoms, and R 2 is a cyclic or non-cyclic alkyl radical which is branched at the first carbon atom, contains from 1 to 14 carbon atoms and may contain a tertiary amine or an ether linkage.
