Patent ID: 7019060

Claim:
A hot melt adhesive composition comprising, by weight of the hot melt adhesive composition, a) about 35 weight percent to about 60 weight percent of an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer having a vinyl acetate content of about 30 weight percent to 50 weight percent and a melt index of about 700 to 4,000 dg/min; b) about 30 weight percent to about 60 weight percent of a tackifier selected from the group consisting of terpene, terpene phenolic, modified terpene, and combinations thereof; and c) about 15 weight percent to about 55 weight percent of a wax with a melting point of about 125° F. to 180° F.; wherein the hot melt composition can be applied to a piece of substrate at a temperature of 200° F. to 300° F. for bonding said substrate to a second piece of substrate.
