In recent years, the global market demand for pressure?sensitive adhesives has shown a steady growth trend. The market demand has reached about 3.5 million tons in 2021, and the estimated size of the global pressure?sensitive adhesive market in 2025 is ＄10 billion. Amid the development of pressure?sensitive adhesive technology and the increase in the application demand for pressure?sensitive adhesives, functionally modified pressure?sensitive adhesives have become a major trend in this field. Acrylate?based pressure?sensitive adhesive is the most widely used pressure?sensitive adhesive at present. Its performance has been improved after modification. Nevertheless, the modification process has some disadvantages, such as environmental pollution and low resource utilization. Since rubber has the advantages of low cost, superb mechanical properties, high and low temperature resistance, and environmental friendliness,and so on.Rubber?modified acrylate?based pressure?sensitive adhesives have become a development trend in this field. This paper summarized the development process of rubber?modified acrylate?based pressure?sensitive adhesives and outlined and compared the types of rubber and the advantages and disadvantages of modified products.
