| Abstract: |
thermoplastic adhesive composition comprising from about 95 to about 5 percent by weight of a propylene polymer having a melt flow index of from about 0.5 to about 500 and from about 5 to about 95 percent by weight of an ethylene/.alpha.,.beta.-ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid copolymer containing from about 1 to about 30 percent by weight of said acid copolymerized therein and having a melt index of from about 0.5 to about 500 can advantageously be used as thermoplastic adhesives for metals and polymeric substrates and are capable of retaining their adhesion to such substrates at elevated temperatures. Such compositions are particularly useful as adhesives in the manufacture of a retortable pouch for food which will withstand normal retort conditions. |
