Miscibility Between Components of Acrylic Pressure-Sensitive Adhesives - Phase-Diagrams of Poly(Butyl Acrylate-Co-Acrylic Acid) and Esterified Rosins
A series of acrylic copolymers, poly(butyl acrylate-co-acrylic acid), were blended with tackifiers and dehydroabietic acid esters, and the miscibility between the components was investigated. The phase diagram of the blends changed from an LCST type to a UCST type as acrylic acid content increased, and the miscibility region in the phase diagrams decreased as the tackifier became bulkier. It was found that some of the trends can be accounted for on the basis of mean field approximation.
