A pressure-sensitive adhesive comprising an at least partially compatible mixture of a thermoplastic rubber and an aliphatic hydrocarbon tackifying system having a softening point of from about 30 DEG to about 80 DEG C. and in which the thermoplstic rubber is present in an amount of from about 15 to about 30 percent by weight, based on the total weight of the thermoplastic rubber and the aliphatic hydrocarbon resin tackifying system, enable high-speed production of matrix-stripped label stock. |
