Abstract
Abstract There is disclosed a group of poly(ester-amide) compositions which possess good adhesive properties with respect to vinyl based substrates. They also possess long open assembly times. These poly(ester-amide) compositions are the reaction product of a polymeric fatty acid, with an organic diamine, dicarboxylic acid and a diol.
