Abstract
The invention provides a clear and essentially colorless adhesive comprising (A) the polymerization reaction product of starting materials comprising: (a) 25 to 95 parts by weight of a polymerizable component comprising at least one acrylic or methacrylic ester of a non-tertiary alkyl alcohol in which the alkyl group contains 4 to 20 carbon atoms; (b) at least 5 parts by weight of at least one copolymerizable polar comohomer having a strong hydrogen bonding capability selected from an acid, an amide, an anhydride, or a lactam, the sum of (a) and (b) amounting to 100 parts by weight; and (B) 1 to 75 parts by weight, per 100 parts by weight of the sum of components (a) and (b), of a tackifier; said tackifier comprising a water white, hydrogenated resin produced from a hydrocarbon feedstock containing at least 50 percent vinyl aromatic monomer and from 0 to 40 percent by weight of olefin chain transfer agents, said tackifier having: (i) a retained aromaticity on a weight percent of monomers in the feedstock basis of 80 to 95 percent; (ii) a softening point of 65.degree. to 120.degree. C.; (iii) a Mz of less than 1800; (iv) no molecular weight fractions above 7000; and (v) a polydisper…
