Low Molecular Weight Ethylene-Carbon Monoxide Copolymers for High Performance HMAs, 1993 Hot Melt Symposium Proceedings
Lawrence Krutzel
A series of low molecular weight (LMW) ethylene-carbon monoxide (E-CO) copolymers recently developed by Allied Signal Inc. were evaluated in HMA systems, including ethylene-n-
butylacrylate-carbon monoxide (E-nBA-CO) terpolymer and ethylene-vinyl acetate (E-VA) copolymer based types. Test results showed outstanding adhesion to both polar and non-polar substrates suggesting their use in applications requiring high performance adhesives.
