Pressure sensitive adhesives comprising an acrylate polymer and surface-modified nanoparticles are described. The surface-modified nanoparticles comprise a nanoparticle having a silica surface and surface modifying groups covalently attached to the silica surface. At least one surface-modifying group is a polymeric silane surface modifying group. At least one surface-modifying group is a non-polymeric silane surface modifying group. Methods of preparing such adhesives, including their exposure to UVA and UVC radiation are also described.

A radiation curing apparatus comprises a plurality of solid state radiation sources to generate radiation that cures a first material. The solid state radiation sources can be disposed in an array pattern. Optical concentrators, arranged in a corresponding array pattern, receive radiation from corresponding solid state radiation sources. The concentrated radiation is received by a plurality of optical waveguides, also arranged in a corresponding array pattern. Each optical waveguide includes a first end to receive the radiation and a second end to output the radiation. The curing apparatus can be utilized for continuous substrate, sheet, piece part, spot curing, and/or 3D radiation-cure processes.

Retroreflective sheeting includes a body layer having a structured surface with recessed faces forming cube corner cavities. A reflective film is disposed at least on the recessed faces, and a fill material fills the cube corner cavities. The fill material comprises radiation-curable materials, adhesives, or both, and preferably transparent radiation-curable pressure-sensitive adhesives. The fill material preferably forms a continuous layer covering both the recessed faces and upper portions of the structured surface. A transparent cover layer preferably contacts the fill material layer.
