ADHESIVES THAT INCLUDE HIGHLY-PLASTICIZED CELLULOSE ESTERS AND METHODS AND ARTICLES RELATING THERETO

摘要

In some instances, adhesives may include a cellulose ester and a plasticizer in an amount of about 15% or greater by weight of the adhesive, wherein the plasticizer comprises a nonionic surfactant. In some instances, adhesives may include a cellulose ester and a mixture of two or more plasticizers in an amount of about 15% or greater by weight of the adhesive, wherein a melt flow index of the adhesive melt is greater than comparable adhesive melts that comprise the cellulose ester and only one of the plasticizers at the same amount.
