ABSTRACT:
A water-dispersible, inherently tacky pressure-sensitive adhesive comprising a tacky emulsion polymer formed of from about 80% to 90% by weight of monomers comprising a major portion of at least alkyl acrylate containing from 4 to about 8 carbon atoms in the alkyl group and from about 20% to 10% by weight of a mixture of acrylic acid with at least an oleophilic unsaturated carboxylic acid, said emulsion polymer formed in the presence of anionic and nonionic surfactants to provide a polymer having a glass transition temperature of -15.degree. to -50.degree. C. A sufficient amount of chain transfer agent is employed to provide an emulsion polymer which when coated on a repulpable paper substrate enables recovery of paper fibers substantially free of adhesive under conditions of TAPPI Useful Method 213 and/or 204, and resistant to loss of adhesive properties on exposure to high humidity.
