  • Flexographic application of adhesive dispersions
    Patent number: 8623166
    Abstract: A method of forming on a substrate an adhesive region that includes an adhesive composition employs steps of: a) applying a dispersion of the adhesive composition in a solvent to an anilox roller on a flexographic press, said adhesive composition comprising an adhesive polymer; b) contacting the anilox roller with a flexographic plate to transfer a portion of the dispersion thereto, said flexographic plate comprising an adhesive application region having a shape substantially matching that of the adhesive region on the substrate; c) contacting the flexographic plate with the substrate to transfer the dispersion to the substrate; and d) drying the dispersion on the substrate to form the adhesive region.
    Type: Grant
