Zusammenfassung:	The present disclosure provides a hot melt adhesive which includes at least the following components: (1) from about 10 to about 20 weight percent of a lactic acid oligomer or polymer having a weight average molecular weight from about 1500 to about 3000; (2) from about 40 to about 75 weight percent of polylactide having a weight average molecular weight from about 10,000 to about 18,000; (3) from about 20 to about 35 weight percent of a polyester formed from the copolymerization of one or more diols and one or more dicarboxylic acids; and (4) from about 0.5 to about 5 weight percent of a copolymer of vinyl acetate and a mono-unsaturated short chain fatty acid, the fatty acid having from 4 to 12 carbon atoms. All of the aforementioned weight percentages are based on the overall weight of the hot melt adhesive. An adhesive-coated substrate and a method for applying a hot melt adhesive to a substrate are also disclosed. [No available figure]
