Abstract:
A method for increasing the adhesion between the first surface of a first web-shaped material and a first surface of a second web-shaped material, the first web-shaped material and the second web-shaped material being fed continuously and with the same web direction to a laminating gap, in which the first web-shaped material and the second web-shaped material are laminated together by means of the first surfaces thereof, the two first surfaces being treated with a single plasma simultaneously and preferably over the entire area, the laminating gap being formed by a pressing element and a counter-pressure device, which builds up a counter pressure, and preferably at least one of the lateral surfaces of the pressing element and of the counter-pressure device or both being equipped with a dielectric, characterized in that none of the two first surfaces/web-shaped materials are guided through the discharge zone of the plasma-generating device.
Abstract:
The invention describes a double-sided, carrierless self-adhesive tape which can be used in particular for achieving very durable adhesive bonding of a variety of articles. This double-sided, carrierless self-adhesive tape is composed of a homogeneously crosslinked pressure-sensitive acrylate hotmelt composition of single-layer construction, which may have been lined with release materials such as siliconized release papers or release films. The double-sided, carrierless pressure-sensitive adhesive tape is characterized in that it is composed of a photoinitiator-free, thermally homogeneously crosslinked acrylate hotmelt which is crosslinked predominantly by way of urethane units. It is notable in particular for the fact that it is homogeneously chemically crosslinked through the layer and, in contrast to acrylate layers crosslinked by radiation (UV/EBC), does not exhibit any profile of crosslinking through the layer. It can be used in particular as an adhesive transfer tape for the permanent attachment of articles to a variety of substrates.
Abstract:
Crosslinked pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs) based on polymers of branched macromolecules each comprising a main chain and one or more sidechains pendent to the main chain, the constitutional units thereof originating from a) X wt % of one or more acrylic and/or methacrylic esters, with 80 =1000 g/mol, and the respective amounts of constitutional units originating from a), b) and c) can be the same in each case or differ by not more than 1%, and where a), b) and c) may in each case be the same or different monomers, have detachment properties which can be set independently of one another.
Abstract:
End-group-functionalized oligomers with controlled degrees of functionality based on styrene are produced by reacting the monomer with a regulator by means of free-radical polymerization. At least some of the quantity of regulator is added according to a prescribed program so that at every juncture t the value of the quantitative fraction added up to said juncture does not fall short of the value of the respective conversion U(t) in the polymerization reaction at said juncture t by more than 5 percentage points and does not exceed said value U(t) by more than 5 percentage points.
Abstract:
A method for increasing the adhesion between the first surface of a first web-type material and a first surface of a second web-type material, the first web-type material and the second web-type material being supplied to a lamination nip continuously and with the same direction of the web. In said nip, the first surface of the first web-type material and of the second web-type material are laminated together and both first surfaces are treated with a plasma over the whole surface. The lamination nip is formed by a pressure roller and a counter-pressure roller and at least one of the surfaces of the rollers or both are equipped with a dielectric. The plasma or the corona is produced by a nozzle. The first web-type material comprises an adhesive compound layer arranged in the first web-type material such as to form the first surface of the first web-type material.
Abstract:
Acrylate-based oligomers having double-bond end-group-functionalization are produced by means of free-radical polymerization where, in a first step, a monomer mixture of an acrylate component and an aromatic component is reacted with use of a difunctional regulator, the molar quantity of monomer mixture to that of regulator being from 100:20 to 100:0.5 and the polymerization is continued until monomer conversion reaches at least 96%. In a second step, the resultant macromolecules are reacted, in the reactor in which the polymerization was conducted, with at least one compound Z which has a functional group and has an ethylenic doule bond, and at least that portion of the compound Z that contains the ethylenic double bond becomes linked to the macromolecules via reaction of one of the functional groups of the difunctional regulator with the functional group of the compound Z.
Abstract:
Composite made of two substrates for use for optical, electronic and/or precision-engineered equipment, comprising a first substrate and a second substrate and, arranged so as to connect the first substrate to the second substrate, an adhesive layer, wherein the adhesive layer comprises an adhesive which has, relative to the mixture, (a) from 60% by weight to 90% by weight of a first polymer component based on polyacrylate and (b) from 10% by weight to 40% by weight of a second polymer component based on elastomers, where the second polymer component is essentially not miscible with the first polymer component, so that the adhesive is present in at least two separate phases in the adhesive layer.
