Abstract:
A oil gel composition, consisting essentially of: 65-80 wt. % of a mineral oil, 15-25 wt. % of a hydrogenated styrenic block copolymer (HSBC), 1 to 15 wt. % of glass spheres having an average particle size of at least 15 microns, 1 at least 50 wt. % of a plasticizer selected from mineral oil, a paraffinic oil, an oil-enriched in paraffin, and mixtures thereof, and 0.25-5 wt. % of a tack reducing component selected from the group of steric acid, metal stearates, long chain fatty acids, fatty acid salts, fatty acid esters, amide waxes, ethylene-bis-stearamides, erucamide, polyester modified siloxanes, and mixtures thereof. The oil gel composition has an average peel strength of less than 0.3 lbf/in measured according to ASTM D 1876. Articles formed from the oil gel composition are characterized as being tack-free.
