Abstract:
An adhesive composition comprising:A. 80-98% by weight, based upon the total amount of adhesive dry solids, of at least one latex copolymer made from monomers comprising:(1) 20-55% by weight, based upon the weight of the copolymer, of at least one brominated aromatic monomer,(2) 5-15% by weight, based upon the weight of the copolymer, of a monomer selected from the group consisting of glycidyl acrylate, glycidyl methacrylate, and mixtures thereof, and(3) 40-60% by weight, based upon the weight of the copolymer, of at least one non-brominated monofunctional(meth)acrylate monomer;(4) 0-10% by weight, based upon the weight of the copolymer, of a monomer selected from the group consisting of acrylonitrile, methacrylonitrile, and mixtures thereof;B. 0-10% by weight, based upon the total amount of adhesive dry solids, of at least one crosslinking agent;C. 1-10% by weight, based upon the total amount of adhesive dry solids, of at least one antimony oxide; andD. 0-15% by weight, based upon the total amount of adhesive dry solids, of at least one viscosity modifier.
