Definitions

  • the present invention relates to latex compositions of certain carboxylated conjugated diolefin copolymers exhibiting enhanced adhesiveness and fiber bonding properties, and to improved unified non-woven fibrous articles, such as fibrous webs or mats, internally bonded with these particular diene-containing copolymers.

  • the invention involves impregnated paper backing sheets suitable for fabrication into pressure-sensitive adhesive tapes, and the tapes so produced, such sheets being characterized by an unexpected development of unusually high internal bond strength and a resultant high resistance to delamination of the paper backing, in combination with other advantageous properties.
  • non-woven fibrous material means a mat, web, or sheet of fibers laid down by mechanical, pneumatic, electrical or vacuum means, or otherwise deposited.
  • the typically open, highly porous and unbonded structure of webs or mats made of such fibrous materials inherently has little or no internal bond and hence little or no resistance to delamination, splitting and tearing.
  • non-woven fibrous articles of highly improved internal bond strength are obtainable by unifying the fibrous materials with polycarboxylic acid-containing diene polymers.
  • Diene copolymers particularly suitable for use in the unifying compositions of theinvention are polycarboxylic acid-containing copolymers prepared from monomeric material at least predominantly comprising one or more aliphatic conjugated dienes and one or more non-carboxylic ethylenically unsaturated monomers copolymerizable with the diene, the polycarboxylic acid content being derived from the non-carboxylic monomer, or supplied by a separate substance.

  • the polycarboxylic acid content in the copolymer may be much higher, such as that obtainable in the acidic aqueous copolymerization of the copolymerizable olefinically unsaturated polycarboxylic acid with a major portion of the diene and monoolefinic monomer constituents, or such as are obtainable through introduction of the polycarboxylic acid into the copolymer by other suitable methods above-mentioned and hereinafter described.
  • the polycarboxylic acid-containing copolymers permit the development of unique combinations of properties with the high internal bond strength, which are not obtainable with the ordinary synthetic latices when used as saturants, among which may be mentioned, the retention of high internal bond strength with pigmentation, high elongation with retention of internal bond and tensile strengths, resistance to oils and solvents, and non-discoloration on exposure to ultraviolet light, and in tape applications the avoidance of a tie or primer coat for securing the pressure-sensitive adhesive to the bonded fibrous backing.
  • the fibrous masses may have a suitable copolymer content imparted by impregnation, such as dip saturation of preformed webs or sheets, or by beater addition of an aqueous dispersion of copolymer directly to the fibers prior to formation of any web or'sheeting.
