Abstract:
A pre-adhesive composition is described comprising an epoxy-functional (meth)acryloyl copolymer and epoxy resin, which when crosslinked using an ionic photoacid generator (PAG) provides a pressure-sensitive adhesive and pressure-sensitive adhesive articles having desirable properties.
Abstract:
A one-part epoxy structural adhesive comprising an epoxy resin, a toughening agent, a reactive liquid modifier present in an amount ranging from about 5 % to about 15% by weight structural adhesive, and a latent amine curing agent. The structural adhesive may optionally include reactive diluents, synthetic mineral fibers, fillers, pigments and combinations thereof. The structural adhesive may be used to form bonded joints between metal parts having clean surfaces, as well as those having surfaces contaminated with hydrocarbon-containing materials, such as oils, processing aids and lubricating agents.
Abstract:
A retroreflective element which may be used in pavement markings comprising a core having (a) a central layer having first and second major surfaces and at least one vertical surface, (b) a barrier layer applied to the first major surface, and (c) a barrier layer applied to the second major surface; and a plurality of optical elements embedded in the vertical surface(s) of the central layer.
Abstract:
A method for building three-dimensional articles using a thermal polymerization process in provided. The articles are built by using a composition that includes a thermally polymerizable composition, a thermal initiator, and a nonlinear light-to-heat conversion material such as a reverse saturable dye. The article is built by the sequential exposure of adjacent voxels with a laser beam. Microlens arrays can be used to expose more than one voxel at a time.
Abstract:
A laminate body, method, and materials for temporary substrate support are provided. The laminate body can hold and protect thin, brittle substrates such as flexible glass or thin semiconductor wafers during further processing such as vapor deposition or thinning by grinding. The provided laminate body, in one embodiment, includes a support, a release layer disposed upon the support, a joining layer disposed upon and in contact with the release layer, and a substrate disposed upon and in contact with the joining layer. The release layer can include an acrylic adhesive and an adhesion modifying agent.

Abstract:
The present disclosure describes methods for making an electronic device. Methods for making electronic devices include providing a first electrode, an electro-responsive layer, and a second electrode. A first conductive nanostructured grid is deposited on a surface of the first electrode. The electro-responsive layer is facing the first conductive nanostructured grid. The electro-responsive layer is positioned between the first electrode and the second electrode. An electronic device having a first nanostructured grid deposited on a first electrode is described.
