Abstract:
The present invention relates to a hot melt composition, which is suitable as a damping, preferably a sound deadening, composition comprising i) at least one poly-α-olefin; ii) at least one elastomeric styrene based copolymer; iii) at least one tackifier; iv) at least one macrocycle; and optionally v) at least one additive, preferably selected from fillers; stabilizers; colorants; pigments; waxes; thermoplastic compounds having a melt index of 600 to 5000 at 190° C./2.16 kg (ASTM D1238) selected from ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA), ethylene acrylic acid (EAA), alkyl acrylates, alkyl methylacrylates (EMA), ethylene 2-ethyl hexyl acrylate (EEHA) polymers or combinations thereof; moisture scavengers; or combinations thereof. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a dampening, preferably a sound deadening, article comprising the hot melt composition of the present invention and the use of the hot melt composition of the present invention in dampening, preferably sound deadening.

Claim (Index 7):
The sound deadening hot melt composition according to\n claim 1 , wherein iii) the at least one tackifier is selected from (a) natural and modified rosins like gum rosins, wood rosins, tall oil rosins, distilled rosins, hydrogenated rosins, dimerized rosins, polymerized rosin; (b) glycerol and pentaerythritol esters of natural and modified rosins like glycerol esters of pale; wood rosins; glycerol esters of hydrogenated rosins; the glycerol esters of polymerized rosins; pentaerythritol esters of hydrogenated rosins; and phenolic-modified pentaerythritol esters of rosins; (c) copolymers and terpolymers of natural terpenes, such as styrene/terpene and alpha methyl styrene/terpene; (d) polyterpene resins resulting from the polymerization of terpene hydrocarbons, such as the bicyclic monoterpene known as pinene, in the presence of Friedel-Crafts catalysts at moderately low temperatures as well as hydrogenated polyterpene resins; (e) phenolic modified terpene resins and hydrogenated derivatives thereof; (f) aliphatic petroleum hydrocarbon resins resulting from the polymerization of monomers consisting primarily of olefins and diolefins as well as the hydrogenated aliphatic petroleum hydrocarbon resins; (g) cyclic petroleum hydrocarbon resins and the hydrogenated derivatives thereof; (h) alkyl phenolic resins and; combinations thereof.
