The present disclosure provides an adhesive composition. The adhesive composition includes: A) a propylene based plastomer or elastomer (PBPE) comprising up to 15 wt % units derived from ethylene and having (i) a Koenig B-value less than 1.0; (ii) a total unsaturation per mole of propylene from 0.010% to 0.030%; (iii) a density from 0.860 g/cc to 0.890 g/cc; (iv) a melt viscosity at 177° C. from 1,000 mPa.Math.s to 15,000 mPa.Math.s; and (v) a weight average molecular weight from 20,000 to 50,000 g/mole.

Provided is a hot-melt adhesive which satisfies both solidification rate and adhesiveness. A base polymer for a hot-melt adhesive which satisfies the following (1) and (2): (1) a modulus of elasticity in tension at 23° C. is 400 MPa or less; and (2) a semi-crystallization time at 23° C. is 20 minutes or less.

The present invention provides a hot melt adhesive suitable for use in disposable products, which can be applied at a high speed and provides excellent in adhesion in a wet state and low-temperature coating, with little odor. The hot melt adhesive for disposable products comprises: (A) a propylene homopolymer having a melting point of 100° C. or lower obtained by polymerizing propylene using a metallocene catalyst; and (B) a wax modified with carboxylic acid and/or carboxylic acid anhydride. The wet adhesion of the hot melt adhesive is improved when the wax is modified with maleic acid and/or maleic anhydride.
