Abstract

Unique hot-melt adhesive compositions that irreversibly crosslink in a few days in the presence of atmospheric moisture comprise a polyisocyanated EVA terpolymer having a melt index at 190.degree. C. ranging from 100 to 1,000, such polyisocyanated terpolymer comprising (1) from 60% to 90% by weight of ethylene, (2) from 10% to 40% by weight of vinyl acetate and (3) from 5 to 60 meq. OH of an ethylenically unsaturated termonomer bearing at least one primary hydroxyl functional group per mole, and the composition being essentially devoid of free hydroxyl functional groups.
