Abstract:
An adhesive composition comprising:a. one part of a high solids dispersion of polymer particles, said polymer dispersion comprising an aqueous dispersion being at least 77 wt. % discrete polymer particles polymerized from monomers comprising at least 50 wt. % acrylate monomers having 4 to 16 carbon atoms and/or vinyl acetate, said dispersion having a particle size distribution comprising a first mode and a second mode, wherein said first and second modes are selected from the group consisting of: a first mode having particles of diameter between 0.05 .mu.m to 4 .mu.m and a second mode having particles of diameter between above 4 .mu.m to 100 .mu.m; a first mode having particles of diameter between 0.05 .mu.m and 0.7 .mu.m and a second mode having particles of diameter between above 0.7 .mu.m and 100 .mu.m; and a first mode having particles of diameter less than 1 .mu.m and said second mode having particles of diameter greater than 1 .mu.m; andb. from about 0.1 to about 9.5 parts of water.
