The present invention relates to novel graft copolymers and to a novel process for the preparation thereof. The polymeric compositions provided by the present invention comprise the reaction product of an ethylenically unsaturated monomer and a carboxylated cellulose ester having an acid number of at least about 5, an inherent viscosity of from about 0. 01 to about 1. 00 and wherein the anhydroglucose units thereof have ring substituents comprising by weight based on total polymer weight, of from about 0. 05 to about 20% hydroxyl groups, from about 0. 5 to about 44% acetyl groups, from 0 to about 54% butyryl groups, from 0 to about 47% propionyl groups, from about 0. 4 to about 4. 0% total carboxyl groups wherein from about 20% to about 100% of these carboxyl groups are non-saponifiable backbone, and wherein the material has a lactone level of from about 4. 52. times. 10. sup. -15 to about 6. 13. times. 10. sup. -4. Preferred carboxylated cellulose esters include carboxylated cellulose acetate, carboxylated cellulose acetate propionate, carboxylated cellulose acetate butyrate, and mixtures thereof.

Disclosed is a spreadable solid adhesive composition comprising (A) from about 10 to about 30% by weight of a copolymer of (a) an acrylamide or substituted acrylamide and (b) an unsaturated mono or dicarboxylic acid having 2 to 6 carbon atoms or an alkali metal salt thereof, said copolymer having an I. V. of about 0. 1-3. 0, (B) from about 1 to about 10% by weight of a gelling agent selected from the group consisting of (1) dibenzal sorbitol, (2) alkali metal salts of saturated or unsaturated aliphatic acids having from 12 to 20 carbon atoms, and (3) calcium or magnesium salts of saturated or unsaturated aliphatic acids having from 12 to 20 carbon atoms complexed with the tetrasodium salt of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, and (C) from about 67 to about 89% by weight of water or a mixture of alcohol and water.
