Abstract:
The present disclosure provides a polymeric material including a polymerized reaction product of a polymerizable composition including components and has a solids content of 90% or greater. The components include a uretdione-containing material including a reaction product of a diisocyanate reacted with itself; a first hydroxyl-containing compound; an optional second hydroxyl-containing compound having a single OH group, wherein; and an epoxy component. The first hydroxyl-containing compound has more than one OH group and the optional second hydroxyl-containing compound is a primary alcohol or a secondary alcohol. The present disclosure also provides a two-part composition, in which the polymeric material is included in the first part and the second part includes at least one amine. Further, a method of adhering two substrates is provided, including obtaining a two-part composition; combining at least a portion of the first part with at least a portion of the second part to form a mixture; disposing at least a portion of the mixture on a first substrate; and contacting a second substrate with the mixture disposed on the first substrate. The disclosure also provides a polymeric material and a method of making a two-part composition. Advantageously, two-part compositions according to the present disclosure can be used as coatings and adhesive systems with handling and performance similar to existing two-part urethane systems, but with less sensitivity to water.
Abstract:
A composition is described comprising a styrene-isobutylene block copolymer; and at least one ethylenically unsaturated monomer. After curing the composition comprises polymerized units of the ethylenically unsaturated monomer. In some embodiments the ethylenically unsaturated groups are selected from (meth)acryl or vinyl ether. The composition is suitable for use as a (e.g. pressure sensitive) adhesive. Articles, methods of making an article, and methods of bonding are also described.
Abstract:

Abstract:
A halogen-free flame retardant adhesive comprises an acrylic copolymer preparable by polymerization of monomers comprising a first monomer which comprises a low glass transition temperature (Tg) monomer, a second monomer which comprises a high Tg monomer, wherein at least one of the first and second monomers comprises a (meth)acrylate, and a phosphate containing monomer.
Abstract:
Flame retardant tackifiers are represented by the formula ' wherein R represents a hydrocarbyl group having 20 carbons and three consecutive fused six-membered rings; and each R 2 independently represents an alkyl group having from 1 to 8 carbon atoms. Curable compositions contain a curable binder precursor and at least one of the flame resistant tackifiers. Pressure-sensitive adhesives comprises an elastomer and at least one flame retardant tackifier compound represented by the formula" wherein R represents a hydrocarbyl group having 20 carbon atoms and three consecutive fused six-membered rings and each R 1 independently represents an alkyl or aryl group having from 1 to 8 carbon atoms.
Abstract:
Pressure sensitive adhesive tapes having flame retarding properties include a backing and a pressure sensitive adhesive layer. The pressure sensitive adhesive layer includes a (meth)acrylate-based block copolymer, and may also include at least 10% by weight of a halogen-free flame retarding agent. The adhesive layer may contain additional optional additives such as tackifying resins, plasticizers, and the like. The tapes are prepared by coating the flame retarding pressure sensitive adhesive onto the backing, either in solvent or by a solventless process.
