US Patent:
20200102428, Apr 2, 2020
Filed:
Sep 27, 2019
Appl. No.:
16/584981
Inventors:
- Wauwatosa WI, US
Kimberly E. Secrist - Wauwatosa WI, US
Miao Hu - Pewaukee WI, US
International Classification:
C08J 3/22
C08L 91/00
C09J 11/08
C09J 191/00
C09D 7/65

C10M 177/00
Abstract:
A method for making a plasticized polymer comprises polymerizing a polymerizable monomer, such as an ethylenically unsaturated monomer, in a plasticizer, such as mineral oil, and in the presence of a catalyst system. The plasticized polymer may be mixed with a tackifying resin in a method for making an adhesive. A composition, which may be useful as an adhesive, comprises a polymer system comprising a first polymer; a plasticized system comprising a first plasticizer that was in the presence of the first polymer during the polymerization step to make the first polymer; and a tackifier. The method can be used to make compositions having polymers with a low density or a low molecular weight or both. The final compositions made by methods of the invention include adhesives, sealants, coating, or lubricants.

Kelley GERSCHKE - Brookfield WI, US
Terhi I. HAWKINS - Milwaukee WI, US
Charley PAUL - Brown Deer WI, US
Kimberly E. SECRIST - Wauwatosa WI, US
International Classification:
C09J 123/14
B32B 5/04
B32B 5/26
B32B 7/12
B32B 3/04
C09J 11/06
B32B 5/02
C08L 23/14
B32B 27/12
B32B 37/12
B32B 27/32
Abstract:
A laminate comprises a primary substrate and a secondary substrate mated with the primary substrate through contact with a hot melt adhesive. The hot melt adhesive comprises a polymer blend based on a low molecular weight semicrystalline propylene based polymer and a high molecular weight essentially amorphous propylene based polymer, both of which are prepared by using single-site catalysts. The composition further contains a compatible tackifier, a plasticizer, an antioxidant, and optionally a wax, a filler, a colorant, a UV absorber, another polymer, or combinations thereof. Particularly preferred applications include nonwoven disposable diaper and feminine sanitary napkin construction, diaper and adult incontinent brief elastic attachment, diaper and napkin core stabilization, diaper backsheet lamination, industrial filter material conversion, and surgical gown and surgical drape assemblies.

Hot Melt Adhesive Compositions Containing Propylene Copolymers And Methods For Using The Same

View page
US Patent:
20190233687, Aug 1, 2019
Filed:
Jan 29, 2019
Appl. No.:
16/260577
Inventors:
- Wauwatosa WI, US
Kimberly Eileen Secrist - Wauwatosa WI, US
Kathleen M. Farris - West Allis WI, US
International Classification:
C09J 123/16
C09J 5/00
C09J 11/08
Abstract:
A hot melt adhesive composition, which may be used as a construction adhesive in hygiene articles, comprises a first polymer comprising a unimodal copolymer of propylene and ethylene and having a weight average molecular weight of between about 5,000 and 60,000 daltons; a second polymer comprising a copolymer of propylene and ethylene and having a weight average molecular weight of at least 100,000 daltons; a tackifying resin having a Ring & Ball softening point of at most 115 C.; and a plasticizer. The composition demonstrates good peel strength and good shear resistance and is sprayable, with a sufficiently low viscosity, at low application temperatures, such as at about 121 C.

Filed:
Apr 20, 2018
Appl. No.:
15/958086
Inventors:
- Wauwatosa WI, US
Kelley Gerschke - Brookfield WI, US
Terhi I. Hawkins - Milwaukee WI, US
Charley Paul - Brown Deer WI, US
Kimberly E. Secrist - Wauwatosa WI, US
International Classification:
C09J 123/14
Abstract:
A method for making a laminate comprises the steps of applying a hot melt adhesive composition in a molten state to a primary substrate and mating a secondary substrate to the first substrate by contacting the secondary substrate with the adhesive composition. The composition comprises a polymer blend based on a low molecular weight semicrystalline propylene based polymer and a high molecular weight essentially amorphous propylene based polymer, both of which are prepared by using single-site catalysts. The composition further contains a compatible tackifier, a plasticizer, an antioxidant, and optionally a wax, a filler, a colorant, a UV absorber, another polymer, or combinations thereof.

Abstract:
A hot melt adhesive composition comprises a polymer blend based on a first polymer component having a low melting point and is selected from a polypropylene homopolymer and a copolymer of propylene and ethylene and mixtures thereof; a second polymer component comprising an amorphous polyolefin; and about 30% to about 75% by weight of a tackifying resin. The composition optionally further contains a plasticizer, an antioxidant, a wax, a filler, a colorant, a UV absorber, another polymer, or combinations thereof. The hot melt composition has a viscosity equal to or less than about 80,000 cP at 180 C. and is useful for a variety of industrial applications including bonding together the substrates used in disposable hygiene products, such as nonwoven layers, elastic attachments, and thermoplastic films (polyolefin, polylactic acid, etc.). The hot melt adhesive composition may be dually functional, serving as an elastic component adhesive and a construction adhesive.
