An adhesion composition comprising (a) a first polymer selected from the group consisting of acrylic polymers, acrylonitrile butadiene, butyl rubber, cellulose acetate, cellulose butyrate, epoxy resins, ethylene vinyl acetate, natural rubber, neoprene, phenolic polymers, polyurethanes, polyvinyl acetate, polyvinyl alcohol, styrene butadiene rubber, casein, dextrin, starch, copolymers thereof and combinations thereof; ( b) a second polymer selected from the group consisting of ethylene-acrylic acid copolymer, oxidized polyethylene, oxidized ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, maleated polyolefin and combinations thereof; and c) surfactant; and (d) water, where the amount of said water, said first polymer and said second polymer is sufficient to a solids content of greater than about 30% based on the total weight of components (a) - (d) in the adhesion composition and where said first polymer and said second polymer comprise solid particles having a D50 particle size of from about 10 nanometers (nm) to about 2000 nm. Applications of the composition are also disclosed.
