Definitions
- the present invention relates to adhesives, and more particularly to a water-based adhesive containing an adsorption agent or scavenger to eliminate undesirable odors and flavors from the adhesive.
- a variety of solutions have been proposed for eliminating or at least inhibiting undesirable odors and flavors in such applications.
- the solutions proposed are in one of two categories.
- One approach is to mask the undesirable odors and/ or tastes by adding a substance with a relatively pleasant odor and/ or taste which overpowers the undesirable odor and/or taste with the dominant pleasant odor and/or taste.
- These types of compounds have been problematic in that they may add their own strong odor and/ or taste which may result in yet a further undesirable odor and/or taste.
- the second approach is to sequester the undesired odor and/ or taste in a non-volatile form either by chemical reaction, adsorption or absorption on a substance that sorbs the undesirable odor and/ or taste.
- adsorbents such as zeolites, diatomaceous earth, clays, activated carbons such as activated charcoal or active carbon, silica gel, activated alumina, kieselguhr, Fuller's earth and other clay minerals, either alone or in combination, have been incorporated into certain polymer or copolymer films with varying results.
- zeolites have been used as the adsorbent for air filter elements, and as a component in pet litter to control odors. Also, it has been used in polymer and copolymer films as noted above to control odors and flavors.
- zeolites have not been employed in water-based adhesives since zeolites are known to absorb water. Thus, it was conventionally believed that if zeolites were incorporated with water-based adhesives, one would obtain an undesirable increase in viscosity or thickening of the adhesive and/ or block the pores in the zeolite with water and thereby not permit the pores to be available for adsorption of anything else.
- the object of the present invention is to reduce or eliminate undesirable odors and/ or flavors in water-based adhesives so that certain of such adhesives, not here-to-fore capable of being used, can now be employed for food packaging and disposable non-woven applications as well as other applications.
- the present invention provides an adhesive composition comprising a water- based adhesive, and an adsorption agent.
- the preferred adsorption agent is a siliceous molecular sieve which is manufactured or subsequently treated to have high hydrophobicity.
- the preferred molecular sieve is a zeolite having a pore diameter of at least 4 Angstroms, preferably at least 6 Angstroms, and having a water adsorption capacity of less than 10% by weight at 25°C, most preferably less than 6% by weight.
- the adsorption agent will comprise at least 0.1-20% by weight of the composition, more preferably at least 0.5% by weight of the composition.
- the amount of adsorbent in the adhesive composition will depend upon various factors including the particular polymer or copolymer used in the adhesive, the films used and the coatings or inks used in the structure.
- a water- based adhesive contains an adsorption agent in the form of a siliceous molecular sieve for reducing or eliminating undesirable odors and flavors from adhesives.
- the preferred molecular sieve is a zeolite having a pore size of at least 4 Angstroms, preferably of at least 6
- Angstroms and manufactured or subsequently treated to have a sorption capacity for water of less than 10% by weight at 25°C, and preferably, less than 6% by weight at 25°C.
- an adhesive may be formulated having the following composition:
- Zeolite(s) (Molecular Sieves(s)) 0.1 to 20

- Stabilizer(s) 0.0 to 1.0
- Zeolite(s) (Molecular Sieve(s)) 0.1 to 5.0
- the components totaling 100% by weight of the adhesive composition.
- the adhesive composition may contain other additives or components which can modify the adhesive properties of, or add adhesive properties to, the above basic adhesive composition.

When such optional ingredients are employed, their usage is generally in the range or loading level typically utilized in the art for such purposes, as will hereinafter be described.
- the odorous compounds suitably treated in the present process can be any organic molecular species having pleasant as well as unpleasant odors as perceived by human beings.
