Patent ID: 8791180

Claim:
A curable polyamide-filled acrylate polymer composition comprising A. a polymer blend composition comprising 1. 40 to 90 wt. % of one or more amorphous acrylate polymers comprising at least 50 wt. %, based on the total weight of the amorphous acrylate polymer, of polymerized units of at least one monomer having the structure Where R 1 is H or C 1 -C 10 alkyl and R 2 is C 1 -C 12 alkyl, C 1 -C 20 alkoxyalkyl, C 1 -C 12 cyanoalkyl, or C 1 -C 12 fluoroalkyl; and 2. 10-60 wt. % of one or more polyamides having a melting peak temperature of at least 160° C.; wherein i) the one or more polyamides are present as a discontinuous phase in the polymer blend composition, ii) the green strength of the polymer blend composition is less than about 2 MPa, as determined in accordance with ASTM D6746-10, and iii) the weight percentages of the one or more amorphous acrylate polymers and the one or more polyamides are based on the combined weight of the one or more amorphous acrylate polymers and one or more polyamides in the polymer blend composition; and B. a peroxide curative.
