Compositions comprising wood veneer coated by a substrate contacting layer, a middle layer, and a top layer, methods of making such compositions and articles comprising such compositions.

Coated wood veneer

The invention provides low temperature thermally activatable water-dispersed adhesive compositions and adhesives made from the compositions by removing water. The adhesive compositions of the invention comprise a mixture of low modulus crystallizing polyester polyurethane, acrylic ester copolymer, one or more hydrophobically-modified associative polyurethanes, and a stabilizer system comprising a combination of carbodiimide and branched primary amino alcohol.

Low temperature thermally activated water-dispersed adhesive compositions

The invention provides low temperature thermally activatable water-dispersed adhesive compositions and adhesives made therefrom. The adhesive compositions comprise a mixture of low modulus crystallizing polyester polyurethane, acrylic ester copolymer, thermoplastic resin, one or more hydrophobically-modified associative polyurethanes, and a stabilizer system comprising a combination of carbodiimide and branched primary amino alcohol.

Low temperature thermally activated water-dispersed adhesives

The adhesive of this invention comprises of a combination of an anionic sulfonated polyester urethane dispersion, an acrylic/vinyl polyester urethane dispersion, a non-sulfonated polyester urethane dispersion, solvents and a rheology modifier combination capable of producing a cobweb type pattern while maintaining a uniform dispersion of the aforementioned materials.
