Abstract: Pressure-sensitive adhesive compositions that resist water-whitening are provided. The compositions comprise emulsion copolymers formed from a plurality of monomers that includes a plurality of (meth)acrylic monomers, at least one trifluoroalkyl(meth)acrylate monomer, and at least one alkylimidazolidone (meth)acrylate monomer. Preferably, the (meth)acrylic monomers comprise a plurality of soft monomers, at least one hard monomer and at least one acid monomer. The plurality of monomers may further include at least one aliphatic urethane di(meth)acrylate, an oligomer. The pressure-sensitive adhesive composition also comprises a surfactant system including at least one surfactant.
