Abstract
The present invention relates to a pressure sensitive adhesive composition comprising a copolymer having cross-linkable epoxy groups as well as a solvent. The copolymer is made up of one or more first, second and third monomers, wherein the first monomer possesses an epoxy group and third monomer has a bulky side chain. Surprisingly, the third monomer provides for stability without affecting the ability of the copolymer to form cross-links. The invention also relates to a method of preparing the pressure sensitive adhesive composition and to a method of its use.
