Adhesive particulate composition, adhesive spacers for liquid crystal display panel, and liquid crystal display panel

A liquid crystal display, comprising:

• a first electrode substrate having a circumferential edge;
• a second electrode substrate having a circumferential edge;
• said first electrode substrate and said second electrode substrate being bound to each other at their respective circumferential edges by a sealing layer;
• a spacer for the liquid crystal display comprising an adhesive particulate composition, interposed between said first electrode substrate and said second electrode substrate;
• and
• a liquid crystal packed into the space defined by said first electrode substrate, said second electrode substrate and said sealing layer;
• wherein said adhesive particulate composition comprises
• (a) adhesive coated particles having a thermoplastic resin-containing layer covering at least part of the surface of core particles having an average particle diameter in the range of 1 to 20 .mu.m and a coefficient of variation of not more than 10% and
• (b) adhesive layer particles formed of said thermoplastic resin wherein a ratio of the number of said adhesive layer particles (b) to that of said adhesive particles (a) is on the range of 0.1 to 10%.
