Patent -
A high degree of resistance to water whitening, especially hot water, by pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs) is required for adhesive applications. For example, bottles labeled with clear film PSA labels can be subjected to pasteurization conditions where the label is expected to remain clear through the process. Historically, solvent based adhesives have been used for such demanding applications....

Addresses a topic of current interest & aviods use of adhesives which are water based & environmentally safe; Both the critical properties namely Peel & shear are maintained by employing the 2 stage process which is novel for PSA technology.
