Description
Articles containing labels, such as labeled plastic containers, have created difficulty in recycling the article. The adhesive and/or the label facestock typically remains on the article during the recycling process which then requires additional energy and processing steps to make the plastic container clean from the adhesive and label contaminants.
The art recognizes the need for labeled plastic articles with improved recyclability. Specifically, a need exists for labeling the plastic articles with an adhesive layer that provides suitable adhesion performance; the adhesive layer simultaneously being readily separable from the plastic article—thereby enabling the plastic article to be recycled.

DEFINITIONS
Any reference to the Periodic Table of Elements is that as published by CRC Press, Inc., 1990–1991. Reference to a group of elements in this table is by the new notation for numbering groups.
For purposes of United States patent practice, the contents of any referenced patent, patent application or publication are incorporated by reference in their entirety (or its equivalent U.S. version is so incorporated by reference) especially with respect to the disclosure of definitions (to the extent not inconsistent with any definitions specifically provided in this disclosure).
The numerical ranges disclosed herein include all values from, and including, the lower and upper value. For ranges containing explicit values (e.g., from 1 or 2, or 3 to 5, or 6, or 7), any subrange between any two explicit values is included (e.g., the range 1-7 above includes subranges of from 1 to 2; from 2 to 6; from 5 to 7; from 3 to 7; from 5 to 6; etc.).
Unless stated to the contrary, implicit from the context, or customary in the art, all parts and percents are based on weight and all test methods are current as of the filing date of this disclosure.
An "acrylic polymer" is a polymer that contains polymerized acrylic monomer and, optionally, may contain at least one comonomer. An "acrylic monomer," as used herein, is a monomer with the Structure (I) below:
Structure (I)
wherein R1is a H or a C1-C18alkoxy group and R2is H or CH3. Non-limiting examples of acrylic monomers include acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, acrylates, and methacrylates.
The term "alkyl" is a univalent hydrocarbon. A "hydrocarbon" is a compound composed of only hydrogen atoms and carbon atoms and containing straight chains and/or branched chains.
The terms "amine" and "amino" refer to both unsubstituted amine (e.g.NH3and NH4 +) and substituted amines (e.g., mono-substituted amines or di-substituted amines), wherein substituents may include, for example, alkyl, cycloalkyl, heterocyclyl, alkenyl, and aryl.
The terms “blend” or “polymer blend,” as used, refers to a mixture of two or more polymers. A blend may or may not be miscible (not phase separated at molecular level). A blend may or may not be phase separated. A blend may or may not contain one or more domain configurations, as determined from transmission electron spectroscopy, light scattering, x-ray scattering, and other methods known in the art. The blend may be effected by physically mixing the two or more polymers on the macro level (for example, melt blending resins or compounding), or the micro level (for example, simultaneous forming within the same reactor).
The term "composition" refers to a mixture of materials which comprise the composition, as well as reaction products and decomposition products formed from the materials of the composition.
The terms "comprising," "including," "having" and their derivatives, are not intended to exclude the presence of any additional component, step or procedure, whether or not the same is specifically disclosed. In order to avoid any doubt, all compositions claimed through use of the term "comprising" may include any additional additive, adjuvant, or compound, whether polymeric or otherwise, unless stated to the contrary. In contrast, the term "consisting essentially of" excludes from the scope of any succeeding recitation any other component, step, or procedure, excepting those that are not essential to operability. The term "consisting of" excludes any component, step, or procedure not specifically delineated or listed. The term "or," unless stated otherwise, refers to the listed members individually as well as in any combination. Use of the singular includes use of the plural and vice versa.
An "ethylene-based polymer" or "ethylene polymer" is a polymer that contains a majority amount of polymerized ethylene based on the weight of the polymer and, optionally, may comprise at least one comonomer. Ethylene-based polymers typically comprise at least 50 mole percent (mol%) units derived from ethylene (based on the total amount of polymerizable monomers).
An "olefin-based polymer" is a polymer that contains a majority mole percent polymerized olefin monomer (based on total amount of polymerizable monomers), and optionally, may contain at least one comonomer. Nonlimiting examples of olefin-based polymers include ethylene-based polymer and propylene-based polymer.
The term “polymer” or a “polymeric material,” as used herein, refers to a compound prepared by polymerizing monomers, whether of the same or a different type, that in polymerized form provide the multiple and/or repeating "units" or "mer units" that make up a polymer. The generic term polymer thus embraces the term homopolymer, usually employed to refer to polymers prepared from only one type of monomer, and the term copolymer, usually employed to refer to polymers prepared from at least two types of monomers. It also embraces all forms of copolymer, e.g., random, block, etc. The terms "ethylene/α-olefin polymer" and "propylene/α-olefin polymer" are indicative of copolymer as described above prepared from polymerizing ethylene or propylene respectively and one or more additional, polymerizable α-olefin monomer. It is noted that although a polymer is often referred to as being "made of" one or more specified monomers, "based on" a specified monomer or monomer type, "containing" a specified monomer content, or the like, in this context the term "monomer" is understood to be referring to the polymerized remnant of the specified monomer and not to the unpolymerized species. In general, polymers herein are referred to has being based on "units" that are the polymerized form of a corresponding monomer.
A "propylene-based polymer" is a polymer that contains a majority amount of polymerized propylene based on the weight of the polymer and, optionally, may comprise at least one comonomer. Propylene-based polymers typically comprise at least 50 mole percent (mol%) units derived from propylene (based on the total amount of polymerizable monomers). The terms "propylene-based polymer" and "polypropylene" may be used interchangeably.
TEST METHODS
Adhesion.Samples are typically tested according the FINAT method no.2 characterizing the adhesive peel strength at 90° peel angel from stainless steel ("SS"), Glass or high density polyethylene (“HDPE”) plates after 20 minutes and 24 hours dwell time. All measurements are typically performed in climatized room temperature 23°C ± 2°C and 50% RH ± 5% RH. The FINAT (Féderation Internationale des fabricants et transformateurs d' Adhésifs et Thermocollants ) organization is the European association for the self-adhesive label industry (Laan van Nieuw-Oost Indië 131-G, 2593 BM The Hague, P.O. Box 85612, 2508 CH The Hague, The Netherlands).
Coating Weight. The adhesive coat weight is expressed as the weight of adhesive on a standard area of material - in grams per square meter (gsm or g/m2). In the product assembly, an adequate amount of s emulsion based adhesive (liquid stage) was coated on the pre-siliconized carrier (called liner) and dried for 2 min at 105°C to remove the water from wet adhesive dispersion. This way the 18gsm dry adhesive sample film was prepared and then laminated to the label facestock (film or paper).
Cohesion/Shear.To measure the cohesive strength of the adhesive the FINAT Test Method No. 8 is used where test sample of 1 inch x 1 inch size is applied to the stainless steel panel according to the method described in FINAT test method no.8 and then exposed to 1 kg hanging weight. The measurement is performed on the stainless steel plate but other substrates as glass can be considered. The measurement is performed in climatized room temperature 23°C ± 2°C and 50% RH ± 5% RH and the sample cohesion failure is recorded in "hours."
Loop Tack.The standard FINAT method no. 9 was used to characterize the initial adhesion (adhesive tack) when the adhesive comes in contact with the substrate (glass, HDPE, SS). Testing was conducted after the adhesive coated laminate was conditioned in a controlled environment (23°C ± 2°C and 50% RH ± 5% RH relative humidity) for at least 4 hours. A strip 2.54 cm (1 inch) wide was cut and folded over to form a loop, exposing the adhesive side. It was then placed in between the jaws of the INSTRON(TM)tensile tester, and the lower jaw was lowered at a rate of 300 mm per minute to the substrate such that a square area of the adhesive of 2.54 cm by 2.54 cm (1 inch x 1 inch) comes in contact with the substrate for 1 second. Then the adhesive was pulled away and the peak force to pull the adhesive away from the substrate was recorded.

(i) water,
(ii) 0 wt%, or from 0.05 wt % to 5 wt%, or from 0.1 wt % to 3 wt%, or from 0.5 wt % to 1 wt% of a surfactant, based on the total weight of the wash solution, and
(iii) from 0.05 wt % to 5 wt%, or from 0.5 wt% to 3 wt%, or from 1 wt% to 2 wt% of a base, based on the total weight of the wash solution; and
(2) immersing the article in the wash solution;
(3) agitating the article and the wash solution under conditions sufficient to separate the first substrate from the second substrate; and
(4) removing the second substrate from the first substrate.
The process is effectuated in that dense first substrates like PET (PET bottle) will sink and light second substrates (such as label PP) will float such that the first substrate can be separated from the second substrate by a filtration process whereby the floating light second substrate (label facestock) and sediment dense first substrate (PET bottle) are separated from each other. (Strainers, filters or skimming method can be used). In an embodiment, the first substrate has a density from greater than 1 g/cm3to less than 3 g/cm3, and nonlimiting examples include PET. Second substrate has a density from greater than 0.01 g/cm3to less than 1 g/cm3and floats on the surface of the wash solution.
In an embodiment, the first substrate is separated from the second substrate by sink and float mechanism. This sink and float mechanism takes the advantage of the difference in the density of the first substrate (bottle) and the label facestock (second substrate).
In an embodiment, the first substrate has a density less than 1 g/cm3. A nonlimiting example includes HDPE bottle which will float on the surface of the wash solution, and the second substrate has a density greater than 1 g/cm3such as alkali resistant paper. In this situation, the first substrate (HDPE) will float while the second substrate (alkali resistant paper) will sink to the bottom of the wash solution.
In an embodiment, the first substrate is separated from the second substrate by sink and float mechanism. This sink and float mechanism takes the advantage of the difference in the density of the first substrate and the label system (second substrate). In some cases, paper label can be dispersed in small fibers which will float, or sink based on composition of the paper label and they will have to be filtered from the system.
In an embodiment, the second substrate is a paper label that disintegrates and disperses into the wash solution to smaller particles under conditions sufficient to separate the first substrate from the second substrate. In an embodiment, separating includes filtering the first substrate with strainer (mesh filter) from the wash solution.
By way of example, and not limitation, some embodiments of the present disclosure will now be described in detail in the following examples.

0.22 wt% of a polymer latex (with diameter 250 nm seed) was added to the kettle and held two minutes before the addition of 0.13 wt% of second polymer latex (with diameter 100 nm seed).
With the reactor at ~83°C, a gradual addition thermal polymerization was conducted by feeding the monomer emulsion along with a cofeed of sodium persulfate (0.23wt%) to the reactor over 150 minutes, while maintaining a reactor temperature of 85-87°C.
After adding 60 wt% of the monomer emulsion feeds, 0.26 wt% polymer latex with diameter <50 nm seed was added to the reactor to create a third smaller particle size polymer mode.
While at ~84°C, a chase redox pair of 0.16wt% tert-butyl hydroperoxide and 0.064wt% of D(-)-isoascorbic acid cofeed reagents were fed into the reactor over 45 minutes to reduce the residual monomer levels to final specifications.
At a temperature of 55°C or less, the reaction was adjusted to a pH from 4 to 4.5 by ammonium hydroxide to produce the acrylic polymer containing 71 wt% 2-EHA, 26 wt% EA, and 3 wt% AA, based on the total weight of the acrylic polymer.

Coated sample 1 (paper label assembly)
One side of the 80 gsm MOSAICO paper was directly coated with the hydrophilic primer PRIMALTMTR-407 and dried for three minutes in 70°C to obtain a final primer coat weight of 2 gsm, to prepare the paper facestock. The adhesive dispersion was prepared (formulated), conditioned 24 hours before application and then coated directly on the pre-siliconized paper liner. The wet adhesive coated pre-siliconized paper liner was then dried for 2 min at 105°C to obtain a 18gsm of the dry innovative adhesive layer, to prepare the adhesive layer. The PRIMAL(TM)TR-407 coated paper was laminated to the dry adhesive layer at 40°C/40 psi.
Coated Sample 2 (filmic label assembly)
One side of oriented polypropylene film (OPP) was coated with the hydrophilic primer PRIMALTMTR-407 at a coat weight of 2 gsm, followed by drying for three minutes at 70°C, to prepare the filmic facestock. The adhesive dispersion was prepared (formulated), conditioned 24 hours before application and then coated directly on the pre-siliconized paper liner. The wet adhesive coated pre-siliconized paper liner was then dried for 2 min at 105°C to obtain a 18gsm of the dry innovative adhesive layer, to prepare the adhesive layer. Then the PRIMAL(TM)TR-407 coated paper side was laminated with dry adhesive layer under lamination conditions of 40°C/40 psi. The results for the adhesion, loop tack, and shear resistance tests on Coated Samples 1 and 2 are shown in Table 2 below.

The label size is approximately 6 cm wide and 10 cm long strip.
F.
Wash procedure and the results
The wash procedure was conducted with 20 mL wash solution containing 1 wt% of NaOH and 0.5 wt% TergitolTM15-S-9 in water. After the wash solution was prepared and added to a beaker, the temperature of the wash solution was raised to the corresponding temperature to be tested (i.e.35°C, 45°C, or 55°C) and maintained at that temperature until the wash ended.
Twenty 1 cm x 1 cm flakes of IE1 were added to the beaker and immersed in the heated wash solution. The beaker was equipped with a 4 cm magnetic stirrer to impart a mixing speed of 350 rpm and agitate the flakes in the wash solution. The time that it took for complete detachment of paper label (Coated sample 1) from the PET substrate was recorded and shown in Table 3.
| Coated Sample 1(IE 1) | Coated Sample 1(IE 1) | Coated Sample 1(IE 1) | |
