Abstract

See full text

A microencapsulated adhesive and a method for producing that microencapsulated adhesive is disclosed. The adhesive is produced from an alkyl acrylate or methacrylate monomer having about 4 to about 12 carbon atoms, or a mixture thereof. The monomer is encapsulated by interfacial polymerization, gelatin/gum arabic coacervation or melamine/formaldehyde encapsulation. The microcapsules may be polyamide or polyurea. The monomer is polymerized in the microcapsules by heating to form an adhesive that is non-tacky, but becomes tacky upon application of external forces, such as shearing. The microencapsulated adhesive composition may be used, among other applications, as an adhesive for stamps or envelopes.
