Abstract: A core-sheath filament including a crosslinkable adhesive core that can be cured using ultraviolet or visible light radiation. These crosslinkable adhesive core compositions can provide very high bond strength and are capable of replacing traditional mechanical fasteners in many industrial applications. Core-sheath filaments including such crosslinkable compositions, crosslinked compositions, articles containing these compositions, and methods of making the articles are provided. The crosslinkable compositions contain pendant aromatic ketone groups or pendant (meth)acryloyl groups that, upon exposure to ultraviolet radiation, result in the formation of crosslinks within the polymeric material. The crosslinked compositions can function as pressure-sensitive adhesives.

Abstract: Various embodiments of lightguides and illumination systems that include lightguides are disclosed. In one or more embodiments, a lightguide can include first and second light extractors (330,340) that extract light that would otherwise be confined and propagate within the lightguide along the length of the lightguide primarily by total internal reflection. The first and second light extractors can form respective first and second patterns along a length of the lightguide. Light extracted by the first light extractors can exit the lightguide primarily along a first direction (306). Light extracted by the second light extractors can exit the lightguide primarily along a second direction (308) different from the first direction. A brightness of the total light extracted by the first light extractors can be larger than a brightness of the total light extracted by the second light extractors.

Abstract: A light source includes a lightguide having a top side comprising an optical film, a bottom side comprising a diffuse reflector, and an input side extending between the top and bottom sides. An illumination source is disposed proximate the input side of the lightguide. The optical film has adjacent first and second zones, each zone extending substantially an entire thickness of the optical stack or an entire thickness of at least one optical packet of the optical film. Light enters the lightguide from the light source propagating within the lightguide and being either reflected or transmitted by the optical film primarily by optical interference. For at least one first incidence angle and at least one wavelength, the first and second zones of the optical film have substantially equal optical transmittance. For at least one second incidence angle and at least one wavelength, the second zone has substantially greater optical transmittance than the first zone of the optical film.

Abstract: Provided are methods and systems for dispensing filament adhesive onto a target substrate. A filament adhesive is applied on a target substrate according to a bead application plan, then the applied bead is checked against performance criteria. A second bead application plan is generated, and subsequent filament bead applied according to the second bead application plan.

Abstract: Described are adhesive compositions containing a block copolymer component that includes a midblock segment and a plurality of end block segments, each end block segment comprising polystyrene, a (meth)acrylic functional additive having a glass transition temperature of from 50° C. to 160° C., a first tackifier compatible with the midblock segment and containing a hydrocarbon, and a second tackifier compatible with the end block segments and containing a polyphenylene ether. These compositions are useful in providing pressure-sensitive adhesives that are melt processible, display a high temperature resistance, and effectively bond to low surface energy substrates.
