The hot melt adhesives of the present invention comprise a blend of at least one polyethylene, a tackifying resin, and a Fischer-Tropsch hydrocarbon wax. This hot melt adhesive has a novel combination of properties which meet the requirements necessary for use in rapid bonding or closing applications.

Polyethylene containing hot melt adhesives

A thermosetting powder coating composition comprises a low molecular weight cellulose acetate butyrate as the major component, an aminoplast crosslinking agent, a latent acid crosslinking catalyst, and certain poly(alkylene glycols).

Thermosetting cellulose ester powder coating compositions

Disclosed are compositions of DAC-B hydrocarbon resin and a poly(ethylene terephthalate) type polyester, a poly(tetramethylene terephthalate) type polyester, or a poly(1,4-cyclohexylenedimethylene terephthalate) type polyester. These compositions have a lower melt viscosity at elevated temperatures than the polyesters alone and can therefore be melt spun into fibers at a lower temperature than the polyester alone. Fibers spun from these compositions have properties substantially equivalent to the properties of fibers spun from the polyester alone.
