High‐performance thermoplastic pressure‐sensitive adhesives have been prepared by copolymerization of N ‐acryloylamino acid and acid derivatives with long‐chain alkyl acrylate esters. A comparative study with equivalent copolymers made from conventional polar comonomers and long‐chain alkyl acrylate esters has shown that the N ‐acryloylamino acids and derivatives impart generally higher levels of tack, adhesion, and cohesion than their conventional counterparts.
