Abstract
Abstract Compositions of matter having properties that make them strong adhesives to various substrates and especially for extrusion adhesion to various polar substrates. These compositions comprise blends of a graft copolymer of a polyethylene backbone grafted with at least one grafting monomer comprising one or more polymerizable ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acids or the anhydrides of such acids blended with a blending resin that is a mixture of one or more high density polyethylenes and one or more polypropylenes. The disclosure also includes composite structures and their method of making comprising one or more substrates and a blend of the above as the adhesive in contact with and united with the substrate or substrates.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
146 words
A method of making a composite structure of components comprising: (a) a substrate, and adhered thereto; (b) an adhesive blend consisting essentially of (i) about 0.1-40 parts by weight in said blend of a graft copolymer of about 70-99.999 wt. % of a polyethylene backbone grafted with about 30-0.001 wt. % of at least one grafting monomer comprising at least one polymerizable ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid or carboxylic acid anhydride for a total of 100% and (ii) about 99.9-60 parts by weight of a blending resin mixture of about 25-90 wt. % of a high density polyethylene and about 75-10 wt. % of a polypropylene for a total of 100% and wherein said components are adhered together by methods including blown film coextrusion, cast film coextrusion coating, blow molding coextrusion, lamination, extrusion or coextrusion coating, powder coating, rotomolding, profile coextrusion or wire coating extrusion or coextrusion.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
146 words
A method of making a composite structure of components comprising: (a) a substrate, and adhered thereto; (b) an adhesive blend consisting essentially of (i) about 0.1-40 parts by weight in said blend of a graft copolymer of about 70-99.999 wt. % of a polyethylene backbone grafted with about 30-0.001 wt. % of at least one grafting monomer comprising at least one polymerizable ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid or carboxylic acid anhydride for a total of 100% and (ii) about 99.9-60 parts by weight of a blending resin mixture of about 25-90 wt. % of a high density polyethylene and about 75-10 wt. % of a polypropylene for a total of 100% and wherein said components are adhered together by methods including blown film coextrusion, cast film coextrusion coating, blow molding coextrusion, lamination, extrusion or coextrusion coating, powder coating, rotomolding, profile coextrusion or wire coating extrusion or coextrusion.
Claim 3
Independent Claim
