Abstract:
Adhesive articles, particularly useful as reusable closures, comprising a moisture resistant substrate and a removable adhesive covering at least a portion substrate surface, the adhesive having a Moist Loop Test result of at least about 25 N/25 mm at a test plate temperature of 5° C. The closure may also include a permanent adhesive covering another portion of the substrate surface. The adhesive articles provide easy application to packages and exhibit good adhesion performance in the presence of moisture, such as from refrigerated or frozen food packaging.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus (128) for making a plurality of containers (100) from a laminated roll (130) comprising a first layer of thermoformable material (132), a second layer of material (134), and an adhesive layer (136) therebetween. The apparatus (128) comprises a feeding station (142) for the laminated roll (130), a delaminating station (144) whereat the first layer (132) is delaminated from the second layer (134), a thermoforming station (146) whereat receptacles (104) are formed in the delaminated first layer (132), and a relaminating station (150) whereat the second layer (134) is relaminated with the thermoformed first layer (132).
Abstract:
Adhesive articles, particularly useful as reusable closures in the presence of moisture from refrigerated or frozen food packaging environments, comprising a moisture resistant substrate and a removable adhesive covering at least a portion of the substrate surface, the adhesive having a Moist Loop Test result of at least about 0.8 N/25 mm at a test plate temperature of 5° C. The closure may also include a permanent adhesive covering another portion of the substrate surface. The adhesive articles provide easy application to packages and exhibit good adhesion performance in the presence of moisture, such as from refrigerated or frozen food packaging.
