A solvent-based polyurethane retort adhesive system for producing laminates including: (A) at least one isocyanate compound, Component A, comprising: a blend of: (i) at least one aliphatic-based isocyanate and (ii) at least one aromatic-based isocyanate; and (B) at least one isocyanate-reactive component, Component B, comprising: (i) at least one phosphate ester compound and (ii) at least one polyether polyol having an average molecular weight of less than 1,500 g/mol; a process for producing the above adhesive; a multi-layer laminate product including the above adhesive; and a process for producing a laminate product using the above adhesive.

A solvent-based polyurethane retort adhesive composition for producing laminates including: (A) at least one isocyanate compound, Component A; and (B) at least one isocyanate (NCO)-reactive component, Component B, comprising (i) at least one phosphate ester compound and (ii) at least one polyester polyol having an average molecular weight of greater than 3,000 g/mol; a process for producing the above adhesive; a multi-layer laminate product including the above adhesive; and a process for producing a laminate product using the above adhesive.

Solvent-based adhesive composition are disclosed, the compositions comprising (A) a polyester-urethane resin, (B) a phosphate ester compound, and (C) an aliphatic isocyanate curing agent. Methods for preparing a solvent-based adhesive composition, the methods comprising providing a polyester-urethane resin, providing a phosphate ester compound, mixing the polyester-urethane resin and phosphate ester compound to form a resin mixture, diluting the resin mixture in a solvent to form a diluted resin mixture having an application solid content of from 25 to 55 weight percent, based on the total weight of the diluted resin mixture, and curing the diluted resin mixture with an aliphatic isocyanate curing agent at a mix ratio (parts by weight resin mixture before dilution:parts by weight aliphatic isocyanate curing agent) of from 100:1 to 100:12. Laminates prepared comprising the solvent-based adhesives and according to the disclosed methods are also disclosed.
