1 . A primer comprising a mixture, in dispersion or solution in one or more solvents, of
I) a pressure-sensitive adhesive comprising at least one base polymer component obtained by radical copolymerization of the following monomers:
a) at least one acrylic ester of a linear, primary alcohol having 2 to 10 carbon atoms in the alcohol alkyl radical,
b) at least one acrylic ester of a branched, noncyclic alcohol having 4 to 12 carbon atoms in the alcohol alkyl radical,
c) 8 to 15 mass percent of acrylic acid, based on the sum of the monomers,
d) optionally up to 10 mass percent of other copolymerizable monomers, based on the sum of the monomers,
II) at least one thermal crosslinker based on a metal acetylacetonate, a metal alkoxide, or an alkoxy-metal acetylacetonate,
III) at least one chlorinated polyolefin,
wherein
the concentration of the thermal crosslinkers, based on the sum of the base polymer components of the pressure-sensitive adhesive, is in the range of from 0.05 mass percent to 5.0 mass percent.
