Abstract
The invention provides adhesives comprising at least one polymer component which contains at least 65 weight percent propylene, at least one nucleator and at least one functionalized wax. The inventive adhesives have increased heat resistance and decreased set-time, making them particularly well suited for assembly and packaging applications.
Claims17
An article comprising:
- (A) a substrate selected from kraft paper, chipboard or film;
- and
- (B) an adhesive comprising:
- 1) a polymer component which contains, in polymerized form, at least 65 wt % of propylene, based on the total weight of the polymer component;
- 2) from about 0.01 to about 1 wt % of a nucleator;
- 3) from about 0.5 to up to 5 wt % of a functionalized polypropylene wax;
- and
- 4) from about 19 to about 60 wt % of a tackifier
- wherein the total weight percent of the adhesive equals to 100 wt %.

An article comprising:
- (A) a substrate selected from kraft paper, chipboard or film;
- and
- (B) an adhesive comprising:
- (i) a polymer blend that comprises at least one thermomechanical degraded semi-crystalline polypropylene (co)polymer and at least one thermomechanical degraded elastomeric rubber;
- (ii) from about 0.01 to about 1 wt % of a nucleator selected from the group consisting of organic acid salts, phosphoric acids, ethylene-(meth)acrylic acid ionomers, multiple amides components, sorbitols and their corresponding derivatives thereof;
