Pressure sensitive adhesive compositions are provided that are especially suitable for forming contact bonds that are resealable to polyethylene surfaces at room temperature. Such adhesive compositions include a blend of a linear or a radial block copolymer, an end-block modifying resin compatible with the end or thermoplastic block of the copolymer and incompatible with the mid of elastomeric block, a plasticizing process oil compatible with the mid or elastomeric block, and, only if desired, not more than about 14 weight percent of a mid block or elastomeric block associating or modifying resin compatible with the mid or elastomeric block and incompatible with the end or thermoplastic block. A particularly advantageous utilization of these compositions is as a releasable and resealable sealing strip for thin-walled storage or sandwich bag products made of a polyolefin film.
A resealable and releasable pressure sensitive adhesive composition comprising:
A method of providing a resealable and releasable pressure sensitive adhesive composition, comprising blending together an admixture including:
The method of claim 18, wherein said end block modifying resin is a thermoplastic, non-elastomeric resin and said mid block modifying tackifying resin is an elastomeric resin.
