S
Field of the InventiQn This invention relates to a microparticle-containing pressure sensitive adhesive tape, articles made with the tape, and a method of bonding close fitting parts together using the tape.
There are many products and cu.,~LI u~Liu~s in which close-fitting parts must be joined together. These all involve fitting one piece partially or wholly within a second piece. Examples include joining two pieces of piping, 15 and attaching grips to a variety of types of equipment such as fishing rods, golf clubs, I~u~u~ s, tools, and the like.
For the attachment of grips to various types of equipment, it has been recently customary to secure a strip of pressure sensitive adhesive tape about the shaft, remove the tape's release liner to expose the adhesive, render 20 the adhesive temporarily slippery by applying an organic solvent, such as, for example, mineral spirits or a related petroleum distillate, or trichlu-u~l,y~...~,, and slide the grip over the adhesive. The solvent gradually evaporates to provide a strong adhesive bond between the grip and the shaft. The process is ~ d~ dble due to release of organic solvent vapors into the ~ U~ IL, 25 personal exposure to liquid organic solvents, and hazards posed by flammable solvents. Alternative approaches include the use of solvent-based adhesives;
two part structural adhesives; and hot melt adhesives which are applied to the shaft, followed by slipping the resilient grip over the "wet~ or flowable adhesive In yet another approach, heat moldable adhesives are employed.
One disadvantage of these methods is that adhesive is "squeezedr out when the close-fitting grip is slid onto the shah and positioned. This is messy ~ 2185121 and timc c~nsuming :o clean up. Additionally, the adhesive that is sciucezed out is wastcd. ru~ tL.~ u~- ~ non-uniform bond lines n result, which can r~ducs adhesive strength. Moreo~cr, vhcn solvcnt-base~i a~ihesiYes arc empioyed, there is still unr~esirable exposure to tlamtnable oreanic liquids and5 organic vapon as desCribed aboYe. Further, ~hen hol melt ûr hea~ moldable a~ihesiYw are employed, the use oF heat is reciuired.
Examplcs of llût mdt adhesives fûr use in joining t~vo parts togethcr include those disclosed by De~lis in U.S. Patent No. 41785~495; and Stobbie ct ai. in U.S. Patent No. 5,288,359 Stobbie also disclûses that when at~
rJ apccit ily bght fittin~ joint is desired it is help~l tû applr a lubrica~ing aid, such as water ûr hydroxy c- ~i ' to ~he interior-fitting part. A hcat molda~ie adhesive for use in applying motorcyc~e hand grips is described by Dellis in U.S. Patent No. 5,155,878.
Use of a water activi~ted s~stell~ would be dcsirable from thc perspective 15 tllat tile use of ~le~t or organic solvonts could be avûidcd. Howcvcr, typicai wi~ter activate~i adhe5ives hare their own ' ~vall~gw. Once a grip is 5iip~
on, ~vater is trapped ~etwn thc twû parts and long dryin~ tim~s, e.g., ~reater than ~4 hou#, are thus re4uired b~fore harldling strength is reached. Scc, ror eYamplel U.S. Patent 5,~81 ,28B.

AMENDED SHEET
WO 9,C~Z701~ PCTIUS95/0231 Detailed l)escriptiQn The tape of the invention comprises a water-absorptive backing, a first up~uticlc containing pressure sensitive adhesive layer and, optionally, a second pressure sensitive adhesive layer. While not intending to be bound by 5 theory, it is believed that the water-absorptiYe backing enables water used toactivate the ~ u~kuLiclc containing pressure sensitive adhesive to be removed from the activated adhesive layer, thereby facilitating the drying of the adhesive and shortening the time necessary to attain a suitable level of shear holding properties.
While the microparticle-containing adhesive layer is water-activated, it is not dissolved during activation. This is because the amount of water needed for activation is not suMcient to dissolve the layer.
The Water-Absorptive R:~ kin.~
A wide variety of materials are useful as the backing. Although certain of these materiais may not be inherently water-absorptive, it is sometimes possible to make them so by ill~lUdUU;I~; porosity; applying various treatments,or including additives, modifiers, etc. or any ~u.,.l.,..-l;.," thereof. Such methods are described in U.S. Patent Nos. 4,539,256; 4,833,172; 4,861,644;
20 4,867,881; 4,957,943; and WO 92/07899. The backing preferably comprises a microporous matrix.
Examples of materials suitable for use as the water-absorptive baci~ing include, but are not limited to, kraft paper (available from Mnno~nn~k Paper, Inc.); cellophane (available from Flexel Corp.); spun-bond poly(ethylene) and 25 poly(ylu~ such as Tyvek~ and Typarn' (available from DuPont, Inc.);
and porous films obtained from poly(ethylene) and ~uly(~ u.~ .), such as Accurer (available from Ak70na); Teslin~ (available from PPG Industries, Inc.), and Cellguard~ (available from Hoechst-Celanese~.
While a variety of water-absorptive backing materials are useful in the 30 invention, it has been found that pûrous films of, for example, polyolefin are preferred when there is a close tolerance between the parts to be fitted together WO 9~/27014 PCT/US9~/02314 and/or when the first member must be slid a significant distance onto the second member. An especially useful backing of this type is an ultrahigh molecular weight polyolefin.
As disclosed above, a material that is useful as the backing material is a 5 Illi~,lUlJU~UU~ ultrahigh molecular weight polyolefin material, commercially available as "TESLIN" film. This material is flexible, stretchable, and heat andwater resistant as described in U.S. 4,~61,644. The film is a Ill;~,lUpUlU~
matrix cûmposed essentially of ultrahigh molecular weight, high density polyethylene having a network of i..t~..,o,~..c~ g pores that:
10 throughout the matrix. The density of ultrahigh molecular weight pul~
is greater than 0.94 g/cm3. The intrinsic viscosity of the ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene is at least 18 deciliters/gram, typically 18 to 39 deciliters per gram (col. 2, lines 46-54 of U.S. 4,861,644). The average diameter of the pores within the matrix is in the range of from û.02 to about 50 Illil,lUlllCt~
(col. 6, lines 54-59). The matrix can be filled with siliceous materials such assilica, mica, mnntmnTillOnit~', kaolinite, asbestos, talc, sodium aluminum silicate, alumina silicate, alumina silica gels, and glass particles.
The Mi~-u~ .licle-C-!ntAinin~ Pressure Sensitive A~h~cive The ~ u~ulicle-containing pressure sensitive adhesive useful in the first pressure sensitive adhesive layer comprises a l~ lup~ cnmrnnPt~ and preferably, a water-dispersible romrtm~nt Optionally, one or more modifiers may be included in the adhesive.
The water-dispersible component suitable for use in the ~ lu~)~liCI-, 25 containing adhesive is a material that comprises sufficient lly.llu~Jllili~ units to render it capable of being water-dispersible. Preferably the water-dispersible component contains functional groups, such as hydroxyl, carboxyl, amino, sulfonyl, and the like. l~ upluliclc containing adhesives which employ these types of water-dispersible ~ u~f ,l~ have been found to exhibit improved 30 shear strength.

2 ~ 8 5 1 2 1 WO 95/~7~14 PCTIU~ 5102314 An example of a pressure sensitiYe adhesive polymer that may be used as the water-dispersible component is an emulsion polymer that comprises the pOl.~ i~liu-~ product of a water-dispersible poly(alkoxyalkyl) acr~Ylate (preferably from about 50 to 98 parts by weight), and a carboxylic acid 5 (preferably from about S0 to 2 parts by weight). Additionally, an essentially water-insoluble alkyl acrylate and a copolymerizable emulsifier monomer may be included in the pol~,.,.,;~liu~ The alk~Y~ acrylate typically comprise from 0 to 40 parts by weight, preferably 0 parts by weight, of the ~ilylll.,i~ion mixture. The emulsifier monomer typically comprises from 0 to 10 6 parts by weight, preferably 0 to 4 parts by weight, of the pOIyll~.li~lliU
mixture.
~ xamples of poly(alkoxyalkyl) acrylates useful in preparing the emulsion polymer include but are not limited to those selected from 2-(2-ethoxyethoxy) ethyl acrylate, 2-ethoxyethyl acrylate, 2-~ ù~y~llu~Lllyl acrylate, 15 2-~ llu~.lllyl li,.llld~ly' , polyethylene glycol l~ul~ù~yl~ and yl~t~s, and the like.

30 Yet another pressure sensitive adhesive polymer that may be used as the water ~i ~ersible component in th~ inv,n[ on is ~escribed in copending wo 9512701~ Pcrlus9~102 application Senal Number 08/093,080. This pressure sensitive adhesive polymer comprises a polymer of AA, BB, and CC monomers. The AA
monomer is a llydlu,uhvl);c monomer se~ected fron~ the group consisting of an acrylic or a methacrylic ester of a non-tertiary alcohol having from 2 to 14 5 carbon atoms. The AA monomer comprises from 50 to 80% by weight of the AA plus BB plus CC monomers. The BB monomer is selected from ,~-~bU~.r. il~y~ acrylate (BCEA) or a salt thereof, and mixtures of BCEA or a salt thereof, and other vinyl carboxylic acids or a salt thereof. The BB monomer comprises from about lO to about 30% by weight of the AA plus BB plus CC
10 monomers. If a mixture of BCEA and the vinyl carboxylic acid or its salt is used, the BCEA must comprise at least 10% by weight of the polymer.
Additionally, the carboxylic acid groups of the polymer have been neutralized with an alkali metal hydroxide. The quantity of the hydroxide used to neutral;ze the acid groups is from about 0.5 to 2 equivalents of the hydroxide 15 per acid group. The CC monomer is a water-dispersible 1111~
monomer which has the formula X-Y-Z. In the CC monomer, X is a moiety copolymerizab]e with AA and BB, Y is a divalent linking group which joins X
to Z and Z is a water-dispersible group which contains at least two units which are essentially unreactive under free radical initiated copolymerization 20 conditions which can be used to form the polymer. CC comprises from 10 to 30% by weight of the AA plus BB plus CC monomers. The X, Y, and Z
monomers are described in more detail below with respect to the ~ of the ~ U~1 Licl~ ~.
This pressure sensitive polymer typically has an inherent viscosity (IV) 25 at 27.5C in 2-butanone of from about 0.2 to over 2 dl/g. Preferably the IV is in the range from about 0.7 to 1.5 dl/g. Most preferably the IV is in the range of from about 0.9 to 1.4 dl/g.
The ~iwup~icl~ component useful in the adhesive of the first pressure sensitive adhesive layer is comprised of polymeric, el ~l .. ;c, solvent 30 insoluble but solvent dispersible ~ icl~. These spheres may be inherently pressure sensitive if desired, although they need not be so.
-WO9S12701~ r~
Additionally, they may be crosslinked if desired. They are ge~erally spheroidal . in shape, although they need not be perfectly spheroidal. They typically have ~ari average diameter in the range of from I to 300 (preferably from 1 to 50) f~.
The ~ ic~s used in the invention may be solid or hollow. Hollow 5 I~ lvp~licl-,J may contain more than one void. Typically, the hollow or void portion of the ~ lv~ s is less than 100 11 in average diameter.
The In;~lv~ may be prepared by various ~ml~lcifi~ari~n processes.
For example the I~ U~ may be obtained via suspension pOIyl~ iu such as the following "two-step" emlllcifi~arirm poly,..~li~liu" process 0 comprising the steps of:
a) forming (i) forrning a water-in-oil emulsion by mixing an aqueous solution of polar monomer(s) with oil phase monomer(s), the oil phase monomer(s) being selected from alkyl (meth)acrylate esters and vinyl esters; and (ii) forming a water-in-oil-in-water emulsion by dispersing the water-in-oil emulsion into an aqueous phase; and b) initiating polymeri2ation, preferably by application of heal or radiation.
In this process, the first step preferably invo]ves forming a water-in-oil emulsion of an aqueous solution of monomer(s) (at least some of which is a polar monomer) in an oil phase monomer, i.e., at least one (meth)acrylate or vinyl ester monomer, with optional free radically reactive hydrophilic oligomersandlor polymers, using an emulsifier having a low hydrophilic-lipophilic 25 balance (HLB) value. Suitable emulsifiers are those having an HLB value below about 7, preferably in the range of about 2 to about 7. Examples of such emulsifiers include sorbitan " - ~ , sorbitan trioleate, and ethoxylated oleyl alcohol such as Brijn' 93, available from Atlas Chemical Industries, Inc.
In the first phase of the first step, oil phase monomer(s), emulsifier, a 30 free radical initiator, and, optionally, free radically reactive lly~lupllilic oligomer and/or polymer, and, optionally, a crosslinking monomer or g WQ 9S127014 PCTlUS9~/023t'~
monomers as defined below are combined, and an aqueous solution of all or a portion of the polar monomer(s) is agitated and poured into the oil phase mixture to form a water-in-oil emulsion. The free radically reactive hydrophilicoligomer amd/or polymer, may be added to either the oil phase or the water 5 phase. A thickening agent, e.g., methyl cellulose may also be included in the aqueous phase of the water-in-oil emulsion. In the second phase of the first step, a water-in-oil-in-water emulsion is formed by dispersing the water-in-oil emulsion of the first step into an aqueous phase containing an emulsifier havingan HLB value above about 6. The aqueous phase may also contain any portion 10 of the polar monomer(s) which was not added in step one. Examples of such emulsifiers include ethoxylated sorbitan ."~ c,~ r ethoxylated lauryl alcohol, and alkyl sulfates. In both steps. when an emulsifier is utilized, its ~),., ....I.,.~;n.~ should be greater than its critical micelle ~llAc~ ;..."which is herein defined as the minimum u unc~ a~iu~l of emulsifier necessary for the 15 formation of micelles, i.e., ~ub~ lu~ul~ic a~y.cy~.~iull~ of emulsifier molecules. Critical micelle c-- ~ .II...~;.~n is slightly different for each emulsifier, usable ~ ~ ranging from about 1.0 x lû4 to about 3.0 moles/liter. Additional detail concerning the ~UIC~J~dLiO~I of water-in-oil-in-water emulsions, i.e., multiple cemulsions~ may be found in various literature 20 references, e.g., Surfactant Systems: Their Chemistry. Pharmacy. & Biolo~v.
(D. Attwood and A. T. Florence, Chapman & Hall Limited, New York, 1983).
If the water-in-oil-in-water emulsion is stable, then hollow or multi-void h lu~ku~icl~s will be formed The second, or final process step of this method involves the application 2S of heat or radiation to initiate poly,.l~,iL~Liu., of the monomers. Useful initiators are those which are normally suitable for free radical pOl~ iLaLiull of acrylate or vinyl ester monomers and which are oil soluble and of very low solubility in water. Howeve}, when the polar monomer is N-vinyl ~lll ' ' o, the use of benzoyl peroxide as the initiator is 1~ Examples of such 30 initiators include azo comrCl~ln~ dlu~ uAides~ peroxides, and the like, and 2 1 ~51 21 WO gS~27014 I ~ "'C~14 such as b~ u~ ,u-,c, benzoin ethyl ether, and 2,2-dimethoxy-2-phenyl ~
Use of a water soluble pu~ d~iull initiator causes formation of substantial amounts of latex. The extremely small particle size of latex particles renders any significant formation of latex ~ F The initiator is generally used in an amount ranging from about û.01 percent up to abûut 10 percent by weight of the total polymerizable ~ ù~ ., preferably up to about ~i percent.
lu~Jdlti~1~.7 may also be prepared by a simpler ("one-step") 10 pmlllcifi~tir~n process comprising aqueous suspension poly~ iul~ of at least one alkyl (meth)acrylate ester monomer or vinyl ester monomer and, optionally.
at ]east one polar monomer in the presence of at least one emulsifier which is capable of producing a water-in-oil emulsion inside the droplets, which is cllhct~n~ y stable during ~ ul~;rlcdliOn and pol~." ;,-~ . In this process ~i the aqueous suspension optionally, and preferably, also includes a free radically reactive hydrophilic oligomer and/or polymer.
As in the two-step Pn -llcifi~ir)n process, the emulsifier is utilized in c..-- ..1..~ greater than its critical micelle cun~ dliùll~ Examples of such emulsifiers include alkylaryl ether sulfates such as sodium alkylaryl ether 20 sulfate, e.g., Tritonn' W130, available from Rohm and Haas; alkylaryl poly(ether) sulfates such as alkylaryl poly(ethylene oxide) sulfates, preferablythose having up to about 4 ethoxy repeat units; and alkyl sulfates, such as sodium lauryl sulfate, ~mm~ lm lauryl sulfate, t-;- 11~ ;"-~ lauryl sulfate, and sodium hexadecyl sulfate; alkyl ether sulfates such as ~nnr~tnillnn lauryl 25 ether sulfate; and alkyl poly~ether) sulfates, such as alkyl poly(ethylene oxide) sulfates, preferably those having up to about 4 ethoxy units. Alkyl sulfates;
alkyl ether sulfates; alkylaryl Pther sulfates; and mixtures thereof are preferred as they provide a maximum void volume per ~ u~udulicle for a minimum amount of surfactant. Nonionic Pml~l~ifi~rc e.g., Siponicn' Y-~00-70 30 (~llu~y~d~d oleyl alcohol, available from Alcolac, lnc.); and PLURONIC
P103 (a block copolymer of poly(propylene oxide) and poly(ethylene oxide), -Il-21~5121 v~o ss/270l4 r~ 4 --available from BASF Corporation) can be utilized alone or in ~OI~jUll~ Liull with anionic emulsifiers. Polymeric stabili~ers may also be present but are not necessary. . ; -Both the "two-step" and "one-step" methods produce an aqueous S suspension of monomer droplets. Upon poly,,l~ .i~Liu,, the droplets become microparticles. The majority of the DliwulJcu~ have interior cavities that, upon drying, become voids.
Another process which may be used to prepare the ~ ul~ulicl~.~ forms an oil-in-water emulsion and then disperses the emulsion into an aqueous phase.
10 The aqueous phase comprises at least one alkyl (meth)acrylate ester monomer or vinyl ester monomer, and optionally a free radically reactive hydrophilic oligomer and/or polymer. This process employs a suspension stabilizer rather than an emulsifier. As a result, this process forms monomer droplets which have no interior cavities. Upon poly-n n7~ion~ these droplets become solid 15 ~ u~
Discrete polymeric microparticles may also be prepared via suspension pol~ ;.,"c as disclosed in U.S.Patent Nos. 3,691,140; 4,166,152;
4,636,432; 4,656,218; and 5,045,569 which all describe adhesive ~ ,c,~

Further, thepresence of the l.,i.lu,u~Li~l~ containing adhesive is re,-iuired to ensure that the adhesive does not completely dissolve, or degrade in some other way, when lû exposed to humid or moist conditions and result in the joined parts sliding or slipping if exposed to force after drying.

pRF,CS~ . SENSITIVE ADHESIVE TAPE
S
Field of the InventiQn This invention relates to a microparticle-containing pressure sensitive adhesive tape, articles made with the tape, and a method of bonding close fitting parts together using the tape.
There are many products and cu.,~LI u~Liu~s in which close-fitting parts must be joined together. These all involve fitting one piece partially or wholly within a second piece. Examples include joining two pieces of piping, 15 and attaching grips to a variety of types of equipment such as fishing rods, golf clubs, I~u~u~ s, tools, and the like.
For the attachment of grips to various types of equipment, it has been recently customary to secure a strip of pressure sensitive adhesive tape about the shaft, remove the tape's release liner to expose the adhesive, render 20 the adhesive temporarily slippery by applying an organic solvent, such as, for example, mineral spirits or a related petroleum distillate, or trichlu-u~l,y~...~,, and slide the grip over the adhesive. The solvent gradually evaporates to provide a strong adhesive bond between the grip and the shaft. The process is ~ d~ dble due to release of organic solvent vapors into the ~ U~ IL, 25 personal exposure to liquid organic solvents, and hazards posed by flammable solvents. Alternative approaches include the use of solvent-based adhesives;
two part structural adhesives; and hot melt adhesives which are applied to the shaft, followed by slipping the resilient grip over the "wet~ or flowable adhesive In yet another approach, heat moldable adhesives are employed.
One disadvantage of these methods is that adhesive is "squeezedr out when the close-fitting grip is slid onto the shah and positioned. This is messy ~ 2185121 and timc c~nsuming :o clean up. Additionally, the adhesive that is sciucezed out is wastcd. ru~ tL.~ u~- ~ non-uniform bond lines n result, which can r~ducs adhesive strength. Moreo~cr, vhcn solvcnt-base~i a~ihesiYes arc empioyed, there is still unr~esirable exposure to tlamtnable oreanic liquids and5 organic vapon as desCribed aboYe. Further, ~hen hol melt ûr hea~ moldable a~ihesiYw are employed, the use oF heat is reciuired.
Examplcs of llût mdt adhesives fûr use in joining t~vo parts togethcr include those disclosed by De~lis in U.S. Patent No. 41785~495; and Stobbie ct ai. in U.S. Patent No. 5,288,359 Stobbie also disclûses that when at~
rJ apccit ily bght fittin~ joint is desired it is help~l tû applr a lubrica~ing aid, such as water ûr hydroxy c- ~i ' to ~he interior-fitting part. A hcat molda~ie adhesive for use in applying motorcyc~e hand grips is described by Dellis in U.S. Patent No. 5,155,878.
Use of a water activi~ted s~stell~ would be dcsirable from thc perspective 15 tllat tile use of ~le~t or organic solvonts could be avûidcd. Howcvcr, typicai wi~ter activate~i adhe5ives hare their own ' ~vall~gw. Once a grip is 5iip~

AMENDED SHEET
WO 9,C~Z701~ PCTIUS95/0231 Detailed l)escriptiQn The tape of the invention comprises a water-absorptive backing, a first up~uticlc containing pressure sensitive adhesive layer and, optionally, a second pressure sensitive adhesive layer. While not intending to be bound by 5 theory, it is believed that the water-absorptiYe backing enables water used toactivate the ~ u~kuLiclc containing pressure sensitive adhesive to be removed from the activated adhesive layer, thereby facilitating the drying of the adhesive and shortening the time necessary to attain a suitable level of shear holding properties.
While the microparticle-containing adhesive layer is water-activated, it is not dissolved during activation. This is because the amount of water needed for activation is not suMcient to dissolve the layer.
The Water-Absorptive R:~ kin.~
A wide variety of materials are useful as the backing. Although certain of these materiais may not be inherently water-absorptive, it is sometimes possible to make them so by ill~lUdUU;I~; porosity; applying various treatments,or including additives, modifiers, etc. or any ~u.,.l.,..-l;.," thereof. Such methods are described in U.S. Patent Nos. 4,539,256; 4,833,172; 4,861,644;
20 4,867,881; 4,957,943; and WO 92/07899. The backing preferably comprises a microporous matrix.
Examples of materials suitable for use as the water-absorptive baci~ing include, but are not limited to, kraft paper (available from Mnno~nn~k Paper, Inc.); cellophane (available from Flexel Corp.); spun-bond poly(ethylene) and 25 poly(ylu~ such as Tyvek~ and Typarn' (available from DuPont, Inc.);
and porous films obtained from poly(ethylene) and ~uly(~ u.~ .), such as Accurer (available from Ak70na); Teslin~ (available from PPG Industries, Inc.), and Cellguard~ (available from Hoechst-Celanese~.
While a variety of water-absorptive backing materials are useful in the 30 invention, it has been found that pûrous films of, for example, polyolefin are preferred when there is a close tolerance between the parts to be fitted together WO 9~/27014 PCT/US9~/02314 and/or when the first member must be slid a significant distance onto the second member. An especially useful backing of this type is an ultrahigh molecular weight polyolefin.
As disclosed above, a material that is useful as the backing material is a 5 Illi~,lUlJU~UU~ ultrahigh molecular weight polyolefin material, commercially available as "TESLIN" film. This material is flexible, stretchable, and heat andwater resistant as described in U.S. 4,~61,644. The film is a Ill;~,lUpUlU~
matrix cûmposed essentially of ultrahigh molecular weight, high density polyethylene having a network of i..t~..,o,~..c~ g pores that:
10 throughout the matrix. The density of ultrahigh molecular weight pul~
is greater than 0.94 g/cm3. The intrinsic viscosity of the ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene is at least 18 deciliters/gram, typically 18 to 39 deciliters per gram (col. 2, lines 46-54 of U.S. 4,861,644). The average diameter of the pores within the matrix is in the range of from û.02 to about 50 Illil,lUlllCt~
(col. 6, lines 54-59). The matrix can be filled with siliceous materials such assilica, mica, mnntmnTillOnit~', kaolinite, asbestos, talc, sodium aluminum silicate, alumina silicate, alumina silica gels, and glass particles.
The Mi~-u~ .licle-C-!ntAinin~ Pressure Sensitive A~h~cive The ~ u~ulicle-containing pressure sensitive adhesive useful in the first pressure sensitive adhesive layer comprises a l~ lup~ cnmrnnPt~ and preferably, a water-dispersible romrtm~nt Optionally, one or more modifiers may be included in the adhesive.
The water-dispersible component suitable for use in the ~ lu~)~liCI-, 25 containing adhesive is a material that comprises sufficient lly.llu~Jllili~ units to render it capable of being water-dispersible. Preferably the water-dispersible component contains functional groups, such as hydroxyl, carboxyl, amino, sulfonyl, and the like. l~ upluliclc containing adhesives which employ these types of water-dispersible ~ u~f ,l~ have been found to exhibit improved 30 shear strength.

30 Yet another pressure sensitive adhesive polymer that may be used as the water ~i ~ersible component in th~ inv,n[ on is ~escribed in copending wo 9512701~ Pcrlus9~102 application Senal Number 08/093,080. This pressure sensitive adhesive polymer comprises a polymer of AA, BB, and CC monomers. The AA
monomer is a llydlu,uhvl);c monomer se~ected fron~ the group consisting of an acrylic or a methacrylic ester of a non-tertiary alcohol having from 2 to 14 5 carbon atoms. The AA monomer comprises from 50 to 80% by weight of the AA plus BB plus CC monomers. The BB monomer is selected from ,~-~bU~.r. il~y~ acrylate (BCEA) or a salt thereof, and mixtures of BCEA or a salt thereof, and other vinyl carboxylic acids or a salt thereof. The BB monomer comprises from about lO to about 30% by weight of the AA plus BB plus CC
10 monomers. If a mixture of BCEA and the vinyl carboxylic acid or its salt is used, the BCEA must comprise at least 10% by weight of the polymer.
Additionally, the carboxylic acid groups of the polymer have been neutralized with an alkali metal hydroxide. The quantity of the hydroxide used to neutral;ze the acid groups is from about 0.5 to 2 equivalents of the hydroxide 15 per acid group. The CC monomer is a water-dispersible 1111~
monomer which has the formula X-Y-Z. In the CC monomer, X is a moiety copolymerizab]e with AA and BB, Y is a divalent linking group which joins X
to Z and Z is a water-dispersible group which contains at least two units which are essentially unreactive under free radical initiated copolymerization 20 conditions which can be used to form the polymer. CC comprises from 10 to 30% by weight of the AA plus BB plus CC monomers. The X, Y, and Z
monomers are described in more detail below with respect to the ~ of the ~ U~1 Licl~ ~.
This pressure sensitive polymer typically has an inherent viscosity (IV) 25 at 27.5C in 2-butanone of from about 0.2 to over 2 dl/g. Preferably the IV is in the range from about 0.7 to 1.5 dl/g. Most preferably the IV is in the range of from about 0.9 to 1.4 dl/g.
The ~iwup~icl~ component useful in the adhesive of the first pressure sensitive adhesive layer is comprised of polymeric, el ~l .. ;c, solvent 30 insoluble but solvent dispersible ~ icl~. These spheres may be inherently pressure sensitive if desired, although they need not be so.

Additionally, they may be crosslinked if desired. They are ge~erally spheroidal . in shape, although they need not be perfectly spheroidal. They typically have ~ari average diameter in the range of from I to 300 (preferably from 1 to 50) f~.
The ~ ic~s used in the invention may be solid or hollow. Hollow 5 I~ lvp~licl-,J may contain more than one void. Typically, the hollow or void portion of the ~ lv~ s is less than 100 11 in average diameter.
The In;~lv~ may be prepared by various ~ml~lcifi~ari~n processes.
For example the I~ U~ may be obtained via suspension pOIyl~ iu such as the following "two-step" emlllcifi~arirm poly,..~li~liu" process 0 comprising the steps of:
a) forming (i) forrning a water-in-oil emulsion by mixing an aqueous solution of polar monomer(s) with oil phase monomer(s), the oil phase monomer(s) being selected from alkyl (meth)acrylate esters and vinyl esters; and (ii) forming a water-in-oil-in-water emulsion by dispersing the water-in-oil emulsion into an aqueous phase; and b) initiating polymeri2ation, preferably by application of heal or radiation.
In this process, the first step preferably invo]ves forming a water-in-oil emulsion of an aqueous solution of monomer(s) (at least some of which is a polar monomer) in an oil phase monomer, i.e., at least one (meth)acrylate or vinyl ester monomer, with optional free radically reactive hydrophilic oligomersandlor polymers, using an emulsifier having a low hydrophilic-lipophilic 25 balance (HLB) value. Suitable emulsifiers are those having an HLB value below about 7, preferably in the range of about 2 to about 7. Examples of such emulsifiers include sorbitan " - ~ , sorbitan trioleate, and ethoxylated oleyl alcohol such as Brijn' 93, available from Atlas Chemical Industries, Inc.
In the first phase of the first step, oil phase monomer(s), emulsifier, a 30 free radical initiator, and, optionally, free radically reactive lly~lupllilic oligomer and/or polymer, and, optionally, a crosslinking monomer or g WQ 9S127014 PCTlUS9~/023t'~
monomers as defined below are combined, and an aqueous solution of all or a portion of the polar monomer(s) is agitated and poured into the oil phase mixture to form a water-in-oil emulsion. The free radically reactive hydrophilicoligomer amd/or polymer, may be added to either the oil phase or the water 5 phase. A thickening agent, e.g., methyl cellulose may also be included in the aqueous phase of the water-in-oil emulsion. In the second phase of the first step, a water-in-oil-in-water emulsion is formed by dispersing the water-in-oil emulsion of the first step into an aqueous phase containing an emulsifier havingan HLB value above about 6. The aqueous phase may also contain any portion 10 of the polar monomer(s) which was not added in step one. Examples of such emulsifiers include ethoxylated sorbitan ."~ c,~ r ethoxylated lauryl alcohol, and alkyl sulfates. In both steps. when an emulsifier is utilized, its ~),., ....I.,.~;n.~ should be greater than its critical micelle ~llAc~ ;..."which is herein defined as the minimum u unc~ a~iu~l of emulsifier necessary for the 15 formation of micelles, i.e., ~ub~ lu~ul~ic a~y.cy~.~iull~ of emulsifier molecules. Critical micelle c-- ~ .II...~;.~n is slightly different for each emulsifier, usable ~ ~ ranging from about 1.0 x lû4 to about 3.0 moles/liter. Additional detail concerning the ~UIC~J~dLiO~I of water-in-oil-in-water emulsions, i.e., multiple cemulsions~ may be found in various literature 20 references, e.g., Surfactant Systems: Their Chemistry. Pharmacy. & Biolo~v.
(D. Attwood and A. T. Florence, Chapman & Hall Limited, New York, 1983).
If the water-in-oil-in-water emulsion is stable, then hollow or multi-void h lu~ku~icl~s will be formed The second, or final process step of this method involves the application 2S of heat or radiation to initiate poly,.l~,iL~Liu., of the monomers. Useful initiators are those which are normally suitable for free radical pOl~ iLaLiull of acrylate or vinyl ester monomers and which are oil soluble and of very low solubility in water. Howeve}, when the polar monomer is N-vinyl ~lll ' ' o, the use of benzoyl peroxide as the initiator is 1~ Examples of such 30 initiators include azo comrCl~ln~ dlu~ uAides~ peroxides, and the like, and 2 1 ~51 21 WO gS~27014 I ~ "'C~14 such as b~ u~ ,u-,c, benzoin ethyl ether, and 2,2-dimethoxy-2-phenyl ~
Use of a water soluble pu~ d~iull initiator causes formation of substantial amounts of latex. The extremely small particle size of latex particles renders any significant formation of latex ~ F The initiator is generally used in an amount ranging from about û.01 percent up to abûut 10 percent by weight of the total polymerizable ~ ù~ ., preferably up to about ~i percent.
lu~Jdlti~1~.7 may also be prepared by a simpler ("one-step") 10 pmlllcifi~tir~n process comprising aqueous suspension poly~ iul~ of at least one alkyl (meth)acrylate ester monomer or vinyl ester monomer and, optionally.
at ]east one polar monomer in the presence of at least one emulsifier which is capable of producing a water-in-oil emulsion inside the droplets, which is cllhct~n~ y stable during ~ ul~;rlcdliOn and pol~." ;,-~ . In this process ~i the aqueous suspension optionally, and preferably, also includes a free radically reactive hydrophilic oligomer and/or polymer.
As in the two-step Pn -llcifi~ir)n process, the emulsifier is utilized in c..-- ..1..~ greater than its critical micelle cun~ dliùll~ Examples of such emulsifiers include alkylaryl ether sulfates such as sodium alkylaryl ether 20 sulfate, e.g., Tritonn' W130, available from Rohm and Haas; alkylaryl poly(ether) sulfates such as alkylaryl poly(ethylene oxide) sulfates, preferablythose having up to about 4 ethoxy repeat units; and alkyl sulfates, such as sodium lauryl sulfate, ~mm~ lm lauryl sulfate, t-;- 11~ ;"-~ lauryl sulfate, and sodium hexadecyl sulfate; alkyl ether sulfates such as ~nnr~tnillnn lauryl 25 ether sulfate; and alkyl poly~ether) sulfates, such as alkyl poly(ethylene oxide) sulfates, preferably those having up to about 4 ethoxy units. Alkyl sulfates;
alkyl ether sulfates; alkylaryl Pther sulfates; and mixtures thereof are preferred as they provide a maximum void volume per ~ u~udulicle for a minimum amount of surfactant. Nonionic Pml~l~ifi~rc e.g., Siponicn' Y-~00-70 30 (~llu~y~d~d oleyl alcohol, available from Alcolac, lnc.); and PLURONIC
P103 (a block copolymer of poly(propylene oxide) and poly(ethylene oxide), -Il-21~5121 v~o ss/270l4 r~ 4 --available from BASF Corporation) can be utilized alone or in ~OI~jUll~ Liull with anionic emulsifiers. Polymeric stabili~ers may also be present but are not necessary. . ; -Both the "two-step" and "one-step" methods produce an aqueous S suspension of monomer droplets. Upon poly,,l~ .i~Liu,, the droplets become microparticles. The majority of the DliwulJcu~ have interior cavities that, upon drying, become voids.
Another process which may be used to prepare the ~ ul~ulicl~.~ forms an oil-in-water emulsion and then disperses the emulsion into an aqueous phase.
10 The aqueous phase comprises at least one alkyl (meth)acrylate ester monomer or vinyl ester monomer, and optionally a free radically reactive hydrophilic oligomer and/or polymer. This process employs a suspension stabilizer rather than an emulsifier. As a result, this process forms monomer droplets which have no interior cavities. Upon poly-n n7~ion~ these droplets become solid 15 ~ u~
Discrete polymeric microparticles may also be prepared via suspension pol~ ;.,"c as disclosed in U.S.Patent Nos. 3,691,140; 4,166,152;
4,636,432; 4,656,218; and 5,045,569 which all describe adhesive ~ ,c,~
Preparation of the ~ "u~-Licl~s of this invention may be modified by 20 withholding the addition of all or pan of the optional free radically reactive hydrophilic oligomer and/or polymer, and optionally polar monomers until after polymeri2ation of the oil phase is initiated; however, the ~ must be added to the polymerizing mixture prior to 100% conversion.

In this manner their presence cûntributes to the "~ u~ " of the adhesive when comes in contact with water, thus facilitating joining of the inner and outer parts. Further, thepresence of the l.,i.lu,u~Li~l~ containing adhesive is re,-iuired to ensure that the adhesive does not completely dissolve, or degrade in some other way, when lû exposed to humid or moist conditions and result in the joined parts sliding or slipping if exposed to force after drying. The presence of illi.,u,ua,Li~ with hydrophilic groups improves the slippery ~ ( vhen wet) of the adhesive blend. Conse~iuently, the method of the invention does not re~iuire thepresence of a water-dispersible c~mr~n~ nt However, the presence of such a 15 component does improve ~ Increasing the amount of the water-dispersible component will provide increased ~ at the expense of longer drying times~

Cul~ u~di~ly, the ~,.;clul,~lLicles used in the adhesive preferably are tacky and comprise about 99.75% or less, preferably from 99.75 to 95%, based on lû0 parts total weight 20 of the adhesive blend.
The second pressure sensitive adhesive layer useful in the present invention may be a ~ -u~ le-containing pressure sensitive adhesive if desired. If the second pressure sensitive adhesive contains ~ lul~licles, it may have the same or a different ~ ,u~ n ~ than the first adhesive layer.
25 Altematively, the second pressure sensitive adhesive may be some other ty~pe of adhesive (i.e., heat activated, paste, pressure sensitive, aerosol, liquid, etc.).
~ xamples of various materials and ~ useful as a pressure sensitive adhesive in the second adhesive layer include those discussed in the literature (e.g, Houwink and Salomon, Ad~7esion and Adhesives, Elsevier 30 Publishing Co, Amsterdam, r~l~ , 1967; Handbook of Pressure-Sensitive Adhesive Technology, Donates Satas, Ed., Van Nostrand Reinhold Co., N.Y., WO !151Z7014 PCTIIIS95/02314 l9g2). These non-microparticle pressure sensitive adhesives generally comprise lUbb~,./lC:~;II mixtures, acrylic resins, polyu.~ resins, silicone resins, and the like. Among the various patent literature describing C and il~ U~ in pressure sensitive adhesive rull..ul.lliùlls are 5 U.S. Patent Nos. RE 24,906; 2,652,351; 3,740,366; 3,299,010; 3,770,708;
3,701,758; 3,922,464; 3,931,087; 4,012,560; 4,077,926; 4,387,172;
4,418,120; 4,629,663; and the like. These classes of IL.bl,~ , acrylic, silicone, and polyurethane pressure sensitive adhesives as well as any other pressure sensitive adhesives are generally useful in the present invention as the 10 second pressure sensitive adhesive layer.
Specific examples of pressure sensitive adhesives useful as the sccond adhesive layer include, but are not limited, to those selected from the group consisting of urethanes, block copolymer rubber, siiicones, styrene block copolymers; natural rubber with a tackifier; copolymers of isooctyl 15 a..y' 'd~ylic acid, isooctyl acrylate~acrylamide, isooctyl acrylatelN-vinyl uli~iunc, and t~ vlylll. .~ of isooctyl a..yl~l~. /a..ylic acid/~uly~ly.c.lc IIICCIUIIIUIIUIII~,I, and isooctyl a -y- 'a -ylic acid/(meth)acrylate ester.
When the IJI .rullll~ of the present invention is compared to that of a conventional water activated, repulpable adhesive, such as those disclosed in 20 U.S. Patent Nos. 3,865,77û; 4,413,080; or 4,442,258; or DE-C 2 311 746, on a water absorbing backing, the present invention provides ill~lllU~ in terms of elimination of "puddling'`.
The pressure sensitive Illi.lu,u~ containing adhesive sheet of the invention may be prepared in a number of ways. For example, The adhesive 25 layers may be applicd to the backing by sequential coating followed by any necessary drying and/or cooling between the individual coating steps.
Altematively, the adhesive layers may be applied ~ v ~ly followed by any necessary drying or cooling. A number of coating techniques may be used to apply the adhesive to the backing. These include knife coating, Meyer Bar 0 coating, curtain coating, and extrusion coating. Additionaily, the adhesive may be sprayed onto a support if so desired.
2 1 ~51 21 WO '~5127014 PCTIUS95102314 The method of the invention will now be discussed with reference to the application of a resilient hand grip to a golf club. In this discussion, the resilient grip constitutes the first membet and the shaft of the club constitutes the second member.
In the prefetred embodiment of the present invention, a tape having a porous, water absorbing film and first and second pressure sensitive adhesive layers is employed. The tape is applied to the golf club shaft such that the second pressure sensitive adhesive layer holds the tape to the shaft. This may be ~ h~ by Inr~itll~in~lly applying a strip of the tape to the shaft.
10 Alternatively, the tape may be applied atound the circumff r~7nre of the shaft.
When this technique is used, the tape may be applied so that it does not overlapitself. Alternative]y, the tape may be spirally wrapped atound the shaft .so that each succeeding wrap of the tape ovei~laps a portion of the preceding wrap of the tape. Whatever application technique is employed, the first ~ U~;.,IC-15 containing pressure sensitive adhesive layer is left exposed.
After being applied to the shaft, the exposed ~ ",a,Licle adhesivelayer is activated by water so as to render it slippery. The water may contain a surfactant or a detergent, if desired. A number of techniques can be used to apply the water. These include dipping the wrapped shaft in the fluid, spraying 20 the fluid onto the wrapped tape, or wiping the wtapped shaft with an applicator holding the water.
Once the microparticle-containing pressure sensitive adhesive has been rendered slippery, the resilient grip can be slid onto the shaft to its final position. The resulting assembly is then allowed to dty so as to essentially 25 p. .~ Lly bond the resilient grip to the shaft. The drying time required to reach handling strength ranges from 10 to 30 minutes. In this way the advantages of ~1;",;-, l;"~ exposure to solvent, .'limir~tio~ of "puddling", andreduced drying times are realized. A further advantage of the present invention is that the outer part does not need to be wetted ptior to the joining opetation.

Although this method has been described with regard to the placement of
5 a resilient grip on a golf club, the method is not so limited. It is generallyuseful in the bonding of an at least partially open, hollow, or tubular first member, such as a sheath, sleeve, cover or grip over a second member such as a core, rod, shaft or the like, wherein the second member is received interiorlyof the first member. The second member may be hollow or solid, elongated or 10 not, and may have a circular, oval, triangular or other polygonal shape, or an asymmetrical shape in cross-section. It is also useful in bonding a grooved member, such as weather stripping, over the edge of a door or window. It may be made from metal, p3astic, ceramic, glass or cellulosic material. Similarly, the first member may have a wide variety of shapes and ,~.,.1~.", l;.. ~ and may1~ be formed from most any material. While it is preferred that the first memberhave a shape that ~ that of the second member, such is not required.
