Abstract: A filled gum adhesive useful for producing remoistenable layers contains fillers, protective colloids, and a (co)polymer, wherein the (co)polymer is prepared by polymerizing one or more ethylenically unsaturated monomers in the presence of a dispersion of protective colloid and filler particles.

Abstract: The invention relates to an adhesive system for labeling containers, more especially hollow containers, with wrap-around labels. The adhesive system comprises a pick-up adhesive and an overlap adhesive. It is characterized in that, in the wet state, the pick-up adhesive has sufficient wet bond strength for labeling and, in the dried state, does not adhere to at least one of the substrates. The pickup adhesive contains 5 to 85% by weight and preferably 5 to 60% by weight of at least one water-soluble polymer based on casein, starch, dextrin, glucose, polyvinyl alcohol, polyurethane or polyacrylic acid, 0.00 to 1.00% by weight and preferably 0.01 to 0.30% by weight of at least one defoamer, 0.00 to 1.00% by weight and preferably 0.01 to 0.30% by weight of at least one preservative and water as the balance to 100% by weight.

Abstract: A composition useful as an antislip for articles with plastic surfaces is provided. Said composition typically comprises from 35 to 45% by weight of a rosin or derivative thereof, preferably a water-soluble, saponified rosin, from 5 to 10% by weight of an alcohol, preferably selected from the group consisting of ethane-1,2-diol, propane-1,2-diol and propane-1,2,3-triol, from 5 to 10% by weight of a liquefying agent, preferably selected from the group consisting of alkali metal alkyl benzenesulfonates containing up to 8 carbon atoms in the alkyl chain and alkaline earth metal alkyl benzenesulfonate containing up to 8 carbon atoms in the alkyl chain, optionally from 15 to 25% by weight of a propellant, e.g. dimethyl ether, optionally from 0.5 to 5% by weight of a water-soluble polymer selected from the group consisting of one or more of the following substances: starch, starch derivatives, dextrin, polyurethane, and cellulose ethers, and the balance water.

Abstract: A process for producing an anti-slip article by preparing an aqueous dispersion containing a copolymer of styrene and a diene in a ratio by weight of from 20:80 to 80:20, and applying the aqueous dispersion onto a non-water-absorbing article.

Abstract: The use of adhesive mixtures containing--per 100 parts by weight water--40 to 120 parts gum arabic, 3 to 80 parts by weight water soluble starch degradation products and/or carboxymethyl starch and/or gelatinized starch and, optionally, typical preservatives in aqueous solution and having a Brookfield (RVT) viscosity at 20.degree. C. in the range from 1,000 to 15,000 and more especially in the range from 1,700 to 5,000 for glueing the longitudinal seam of cigarette tubes by machine, produces excellent glueing strength.
