Disclosed herein are D3 water-resistant adhesive compositions comprising aqueous copolymer dispersions and uses of such compositions. The compositions are useful as binders for porous and semi-porous substrates such as wood, paper, and/or board. Importantly, the adhesive compositions have very low formaldehyde content and little or no plasticizer content.
