Abstract

A solvent-free moisture-curing polyurethane hot-melt adhesive composition, in which the adhesive comprises the following components: 20 to 85 wt % of a polyurethane prepolymer with free isocyanate groups produced from at least one polyol from the group of polyether polyols, polyester polyols, polyalkylene polyols and mixtures thereof with an excess of at least one polyisocyanate, the prepolymer having a monomeric diisocyanate content of below 1 wt %, 4 to 40 wt % of at least one acrylate copolymer with a molecular weight of below 60,000 g/mol, 3 to 35 wt % of a thermoplastic polyester with a number-average molecular weight (MN) of below 6000 g/mol, which comprises fewer than 1.4 NCO-reactive groups, and 0 to 25 wt % of at least one additive from the group of catalysts, resins, plasticizers, fillers, pigments, stabilizers or adhesion promoters, the sum of the constituents being equal to 100 wt %.
