Polymers containing a 1,1-disubstituted alkene compound
First Claim
1. A composition comprising:
- a block copolymer having a first polymer block including a first primary monomer that is a 1,1-disubstituted alkene compound, wherein the first primary monomer is present at a concentration of about 50 weight percent or more, based on the total weight of the first polymer block, the first polymer block covalently bonded to a second polymer block including a second primary monomer different from the first primary monomer, wherein the second primary monomer is present at a concentration of about 50 weight percent or more, based on the total weight of the second polymer block;
wherein the first polymer block has a first glass transition temperature and the second polymer block has a second glass transition temperature, wherein the first glass transition temperature and the second glass transition temperature differ by about 20°
C. or more and wherein the block copolymer includes at least one block having a glass transition temperature or melting temperature of about 15°
C. or more and at least one different block having no melting temperature above 15°
C. and having a glass transition temperature about 0°
C. or less.

Abstract
Disclosed is a block copolymer having a first polymer block including a first primary monomer that is a 1,1-disubstituted alkene compound, wherein the first primary monomer is present at a concentration of about 50 weight percent or more, based on the total weight of the first polymer block, the first polymer block covalently bonded to a second polymer block including a second primary monomer different from the first primary monomer, wherein the second primary monomer is present at a concentration of about 50 weight percent or more, based on the total weight of the second polymer block. Also disclosed is a polymer comprising at least one monomer of a 1,1-disubstituted alkene compound having a weight average molecular weight of about 3000 daltons or more, wherein the polymer is substantially free of a melting temperature and is substantially free of a glass transition temperature of about 15° C. or more.
