HOT MELT AND PRESSURE-SENSITIVE ADHESIVES THAT INCLUDE HIGHLY-PLASTICIZED CELLULOSE ESTERS AND METHODS AND ARTICLES RELATING THERETO

摘要

Highly-plasticized cellulose esters may be useful as adhesives, including for use in producing laminates. For example, producing a laminate may include providing an adhesive melt that comprises an adhesive that comprises a cellulose ester and a plasticizer, the plasticizer included in an amount of about 30% to about 75% by weight of the adhesive; applying the adhesive melt to a substrate; and allowing the adhesive melt to cool so as to yield a laminate on the substrate.
