Abstract:
A masking tape for use in applications where a coating material is applied to a surface for defining a sharp edge of the portion of the surface that is coated. A masking tape may include a reinforcing strip releasably attached to the non-adhesive side of conventional masking tape comprising a substrate with an adhesive layer on one side. The reinforcing strip extends longitudinally along the length of the substrate with one edge substantially aligned with, and preferably flush with, one longitudinal edge of the substrate and acts as a separate means to cut through a coating or film more efficiently than the masking tape alone, while subsequently leaving the masking tape in place until the preferred time of removal.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a water-dispersed acrylic PSA composition suitable for forming a PSA sheet. The PSA composition contains 0.5 to 15 parts by weight of an acrylic copolymer (polymer H) with a Tg of 30° C. to 120° C. in relation to 100 parts by weight of an acrylic copolymer (polymer L) with a Tg of −70° C. to −50° C. The polymer L is obtained by polymerization of a monomer starting material comprising 60 wt % or more of an alkyl (meth)acrylate with a C8-C12 alkyl group; and 0.5 to 10 wt % of a radical polymerizable monomer with a carboxyl group.

A near-infrared absorbing composition which is imparted with a function of absorbing near-infrared rays emitted from a display such as a plasma display, capable of reducing the number of lamination steps resulting in excellent production efficiency, capable of resisting to color non-uniformity of a filter even after a long-term use at high temperature or high humidity, and capable of preventing an increase in haze, and a near-infrared absorbing filter having a near-infrared absorbing layer comprising the composition. The near-infrared absorbing composition has composite tungsten oxide fine particles which are dispersed in a resin including carboxyl groups and has an acid number of 0.6 or more and 30 or less.

Abstract:
A dicing/die-bonding film including a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer (2) on a supporting base material (1) and a die-bonding adhesive layer (3) on the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer (2), wherein a releasability in an interface between the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer (2) and the die-bonding adhesive layer (3) is different between an interface (A) corresponding to a work-attaching region (3a) in the die-bonding adhesive layer (3) and an interface (B) corresponding to a part or a whole of the other region (3b), and the releasability of the interface (A) is higher than the releasability of the interface (B). The dicing/die-bonding film is excellent in balance between retention in dicing a work and releasability in releasing its diced chipped work together with the die-bonding adhesive layer.
Abstract:
Non-silicone, urethane-based adhesives are disclosed which are prepared by the polymerization of reactive oligomers with the general formula X-A-B-A-X, where X is an ethylenically unsaturated group B is a unit free of silicone, and A is a urethane linkage. The adhesives are optically clear, self wetting and removable. Adhesive articles, including optical adhesive articles, may be prepared using the disclosed non-silicone urethane-based adhesives.
