Claims
- 1. A method of installing a tile-like floor material comprising providing a pressure sensitive adhesive between the tile-like floor material and sub-flooring, the adhesive comprising a polymer A having a mean particle diameter of from 0.05 to 4 .mu. and a polymer B having a mean particle diameter of from 5 to 150 .mu. and in combination therewith, the polymer B being obtained by aqueous suspension polymerization in the presence of a partially saponified polyvinyl alcohol and being lower than the polymer A in glass transition point.
- 2. A method as defined in claim 1 wherein the polymer A is one selected from the group consisting of vinyl homopolymer, vinyl copolymer, natural rubber and synthetic rubber.
- 3. A method as defined in claim 1 wherein the polymer B is in the form of adhesive polymer microspheres prepared from (a) 70 to 99.9 wt. % of an alkyl (meth)acrylate having an alkyl group with 4 to 12 carbon atoms, (b) 0.1 to 10 wt. % of an .alpha.,.beta.-unsaturated carboxylic acid and (c) 0 to 29.9 wt. % of a vinyl compound other than the two components (a) and (b), by subjecting these component monomers to aqueous suspension polymerization.
- 4. A method as defined in claim 1 wherein a natural resin or petroleum resin is further added to the adhesive, in an amount of up to about 50 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the nonvolatile content of the polymer A.
