The present invention relates to adhesives for paper laminates, more particularly for tissue paper laminates comprising at least one tissue ply that is adhesively bonded to itself (e.g., it is folded over onto itself) or to another surface (e.g., another tissue ply or nonwoven, woven substrate, or the like), the adhesives being aqueous starch-based highly dilutable adhesives comprising at least one modified starch and having a viscosity as defined herein. Also encompassed are the uses and methods of use of such adhesives as well as the products, in particular the laminates obtained by these methods and uses.
