| Abstract: | This publication shows how the kind of crosslinking agents and their contents influence important properties of acrylic based pressure‐sensitive adhesive (PSA) dispersions such as tack, adhesion and cohesion. Synthesized PSAs based on acrylic polymers, containing 2‐ethylhexyl acrylate, butyl acrylate, vinyl acetate, styrene and acrylic acid are used in the preparation of self‐adhesive dispersions used as coating of polyethylene foams and poly(vinyl chloride) and polyester foils. © 2003 Society of Chemical Industry |
