A hot melt adhesive especially suitable for adhering polyesters to polyolefins composed on a weight percent basis of about 35 to 45 percent of a copolymer of ethylene and vinyl acetate and about 5 to 15 percent by weight of a copolymer of ethylene-ethyl acrylate, about 35 to 45 percent of a resin modifier and about 5 to 10 percent of parrafin-rich processing oil and optionally 0 to 5 percent of microcrystalline wax.

Adhesive for polyesters and polyolefins

A hot melt adhesive composition suitable for adhering polyester and polyvinyl fluoride compositions is prepared by making a blend of about 9 to 30 percent of a copolymer of ethylene and ethyl acrylate or methacrylate, about 40 to 45 percent of a copolyester of a terephthalate of ethylene and neopentyl glycol and about 50 to 55 percent of a terpolyester obtained by condensing ethylene glycol with a mixture of terephthalic acid, isophthalic acid and azelaic acid.
