Definitions
- the present invention relates to hot melt adhesives, and more specifically to a hot melt adhesive that is composed of a metallocene catalyzed polyethylene polymer, a hydrogenated styrenic block copolymer, a tackifying resin, and a solid plasticizer.
- Adhesives used to laminate thin and/or porous substrates such as nonwovens used in the construction o 'disposable diapers cannot exhibit cold flow, blocking, or migration.
- Traditional ethylene/vinyl acetate copolymers (EVA), amorphous polyalpha-olefins (APAO) and styrenic block copolymer (SBC) based adhesives used to laminate or bond thin and/or porous substrates typically struggle with the balance of reducing cold flow, migration, and/or blocking, while increasing adhesion properties.
- Adhesives used in applications in which substrates are laminated are often required to adhere to a wide variety of surface characteristics (treatments, recycled content, porosity).
- the substrates themselves can also vary in physical characteristics, such as rigidity, density, and chemical make-up.
- adhesives must be formulated to overcome these obstacles. Consequently, adhesive formulators are continuously evaluating new materials and novel formulation strategies in order to develop an adhesive with the broadest possible application window.
- An adhesive's application window is defined as an adhesive's ability to overcome an application's deficiencies and/or manufacturing variables.
- the current invention details a novel way a hot melt formulator can maximize properties beneficial to lamination applications.
- Cold flow being defined as the tendency of the adhesive to flow or "creep" under low pressure at relatively low temperatures.
- Blocking is defined as the undesired adhesion of a coated adhesive to substrates it comes into contact with during shipping and/or storage.
- adhesive formulators have utilized a variety of different polymers as well as other additives in their formulations to obtain a balance of these attributes.
- These polymers include, but are not limited to, polyolefins (ethylene- or propene- based polymers), styrenic-based copolymers (both saturated and unsaturated mid-blocks), functionalized polyolefins (ethylene or propene copolymers with oxygen containing monomers), or APAOs (ethylene-, propene-, or butene copolymers), and EVA (ethylene vinyl acetate).

These formulations provide superior hot tack, adhesion characteristics, resistance to blocking and/or cold flow, and fast set speed over traditional EVA, APAO and SBC adhesives. Applications include, but are not limited to, disposable gowns, heat reactive tapes, diapers, sanitary pads., case and carton seal, book binding, general assembly, and filtration.

Examples of these metallocene polymers include Affinity® and Engage® polymers from Dow Chemical Company.

- (f) Copolymers and terpolymers of natural terpenes, e.g. styrene/tcrpene, a-methyl styrene/terpene and vinyl toluene/terpene.
- terpenes e.g. styrene/tcrpene, a-methyl styrene/terpene and vinyl toluene/terpene.
- tackifying resins may be required for some formulations. Although a range of 15% to 65% by weight tackifying resin may be used, the preferred amount is from about 30% to about 60% by weight.
- Tackifying resins which are useful for the present invention can perhaps include polar tackifying resins, however, the choice of available polar tackifying resins is limited in view of the fact that many of the polar resins appear only partially compatible with the polyolefin polymers.

- the solid plasticizer serves to improve hot tack and specific adhesion while increasing set speed, but also decreases the amount of pressure sensitivity.
- liquid plasticizers, waxes, and/or other diluents have been used to modify hot tack, adhesion properties and viscosity, but liquid plasticizer increases pressure sensitivity and makes the adhesive softer which in turn increases blocking and bleed through.

- Table Two shows a number of prior art examples compared to a polyethylene polymer based on metallocene catalyst technology, a tackifier, a styrenic block copolymer and a solid plaslicizer.
- Comparative Example 1 of Table 2 illustrates an APAO based adhesive that, although sprayed well and had adequate adhesion, was very tacky when cool and had undesirable bleed through and blocking.
- Comparative Example 2 of Table 2 illustrates an SIS based adhesive that, although sprayed well and had adequate adhesion, was very tacky when cool and had significant bleed through and blocking.
- Patent Example 1 of Table 2 illustrates a polyethylene based composition in accordance with the present invention that not only sprayed well and was non-tacky when cool, but also had no bleed through or blocking issues.
- the invention provides a hot melt adhesive composition, comprising a blend of the following components for use as in as an adhesive to adhere granular material to a PE/PP substrate.
- Table three shows a number of prior art examples compared to a polyethylene polymer based on metallocene catalyst technology, a tackifier, a styrenic block copolymer and a solid plasticizer.
- Comparative Example 1 of Table 3 illustrates an EVA based composition that, although sprayed well and had adequate adhesion, was very tacky when cool and had significant bleed through and blocking.
- Comparative Example 2 of Table 3 illustrates an SBS based composition that, although sprayed well and had adequate adhesion, was very tacky when cool and had significant bleed through and blocking.
- Patent Example 1 of Table 3 illustrates a polyethylene based composition in accordance with the present invention that not only sprayed well and was non-tacky when cool, but also had no bleed through or blocking issues.
- the ratio of the storage modulus G 1 at 30°C to the storage modulus G 1 at 70°C should be equal to or greater than J 00, more preferably equal to or greater than 200, and most preferably equal to or greater than 500. Also, the storage modulus G 1 at 30°C should be greater than l x I 0 r> dynes/cm 2 in order to ensure that the adhesive is not pressure sensitive.
