The method includes polymerizing a mixture of monomers comprising (i) 40-95 wt % of at a (meth)acrylate monomer, (ii) 5-60 wt % of a copolymerizable monomer, wherein said monomer is selected from those whose homopolymers have a glass transition temperature of higher than −30° C., and (iii) optionally 0.5-20 wt % of a copolymerizable functional monomer having a functional group selected from the group consisting of a hydroxyl group and a carboxyl group to form an acrylic copolymer. The method includes reacting the acrylic copolymer with at least one type of monomer comprising a UV-curable functional group in the presence of a catalyst to form the UV-curable acrylic copolymer. Also encompassed are UV-curable acrylic copolymers thus formed, adhesive composition comprising the UV-curable acrylic copolymers, methods for manufacturing adhesive sheets comprising the UV-curable acrylic copolymers, and use of the UV-curable acrylic copolymers.
Abstract:
A joint tape to be applied to wallboard is provided and includes a base substrate having opposing sides. In certain embodiments, a first adhesive layer is applied to one of the sides of the base substrate and a second adhesive layer is applied to the first adhesive layer, where the first adhesive layer is different than the second adhesive layer. In certain other embodiments, two different adhesives are used in a single adhesive layer. In use, the joint tape is positioned over and removably secured to a joint or corner between adjacent wallboard panels using the first adhesive layer. After the joint tape is in position, joint compound is applied to the joint tape, and the water in the joint tape activates it to form a secure bond with the wallboard panels.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an adhesive sheet which is to be applied to an adherend, in which the adhesive sheet includes an adhesive layer containing a volume change substance that expands in volume upon reception of an external stimulus and thereafter contracts in volume with a lapse of time, and the adhesive sheet is configured so that a plurality of surface irregularities are formed on at least one surface of the adhesive layer as a result of the volume expansion of the volume change substance and that channel areas for air bubble expelling are capable of being formed between said one surface of the adhesive layer and the adherend based on the surface irregularities.
Abstract:
A method of making a nanostructure and nanostructured articles by depositing a layer to a major surface of a substrate by plasma chemical vapor deposition from a gaseous mixture while substantially simultaneously etching the surface with a reactive species. The method includes providing a substrate; mixing a first gaseous species capable of depositing a layer onto the substrate when formed into a plasma, with a second gaseous species capable of etching the substrate when formed into a plasma, thereby forming a gaseous mixture; forming the gaseous mixture into a plasma; and exposing a surface of the substrate to the plasma, wherein the surface is etched and a layer is deposited on at least a portion of the etched surface substantially simultaneously, thereby forming the nanostructure. The substrate can be a (co)polymeric material, an inorganic material, an alloy, a solid solution, or a combination thereof. The deposited layer can include the reaction product of plasma chemical vapor deposition using a reactant gas comprising a compound selected from the group consisting of organosilicon compounds, metal alkyl compounds, metal isopropoxide compounds, metal acetylacetonate compounds, metal halide compounds, and combinations thereof. Nanostructures of high aspect ratio and optionally with random dimensions in at least one dimension and preferably in three orthogonal dimensions can be prepared.
