The hot-melt adhesives of the present invention comprise a blend of poly(propylene-co-higher 1-olefin), tackifying resin and crystalline propylene containing polymer. These hot-melt adhesive compositions have a novel combination of properties including strong T-peel and lap shear bonds to both low- and high-density polyethylene with excellent creep resistance at ambient temperatures. Therefore, these new hot-melt adhesives are excellent adhesives for applications such as sealing high-density polyethylene grocery bags and low-density shipping bags.
