Abstract
One embodiment is a pressure sensitive adhesive label or tape that comprises a facestock, and a pressure sensitive adhesive composition disposed on the facestock and the pressure sensitive adhesive composition includes a product made from reacting an epoxidized naturally occurring oil or fat with a dimer acid. Another embodiment of the invention is a method that comprises reacting an epoxidized naturally occurring oil or fat with a dimer acid to form a PSA precursor; coating the PSA precursor onto a carrier and curing the PSA precursor via UV radiation to form a pressure sensitive adhesive.
