Abstract: An acrylic rubber-metal composite, which comprises a metal, (a) an undercoat adhesive layer comprising phenol resin and epoxy resin, (b) an overcoat adhesive layer comprising phenol resin, halogenated polymer, and a metal oxide, and (c) an acrylic rubber layer, the layers (a), (b) and (c) being successively laid on the surface of the metal, having not only a distinguished initial adhesiveness, but also a good water resistance, where the acrylic rubber is bonded to the metal without surface treatment of the metal such as a chemical treatment, e.g. zinc phosphate treatment, etc., a blast treatment, or a primer treatment.

Abstract: Provided is a release-lined pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet comprising a release liner 10 and a pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet 20. The release liner 10 has an average linear expansion coefficient of at most 7×10?5/° C. between 25° C. and 40° C. A layer 12 to constitute a surface 10A on the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer side of the release liner 10 is formed of a polyolefin-based resin composition containing none or at most 0.01 mass % of a phosphorous-based antioxidant. The surface 10A is divided into a plurality of sections 124 by a plurality of ridges 2A and 2B with each ridge having a height of 5 ?m to 50 ?m. At least one of the sections 124 inscribes a circle of a diameter greater than 500 ?m.

Abstract: A method of using an absorbent article where the method includes adhering at least a portion of an absorbent article to a surface of a window through a pressure sensitive adhesive composition. The absorbent article includes an exterior surface, an acquisition layer, superabsorbent polymer, a first layer that has an exterior surface and an interior surface, and a pressure sensitive attachment adhesive composition, the superabsorbent polymer being disposed between the acquisition layer and the interior surface of the first layer, and the pressure sensitive attachment adhesive composition being disposed on the exterior surface of the absorbent article.

Abstract: Provided is a PSA sheet comprising a PVC film (support) provided with PSA layer formed of an aqueous dispersion-type PSA composition, which exhibits a smooth unwinding motion. The PVC film can be obtained by molding a PVC composition comprising PVC and a metal soap. The metal soap comprises an alkali earth metal soap and zinc soap. At least part of the alkali earth metal soap is a stearate and at least part of the zinc soap is zinc laurate.

Abstract: Disclosed is a waterproofing membrane that performs well at both high and low temperatures. The waterproofing membrane comprises a carrier support layer and an adhesive layer, wherein the adhesive layer comprises a pressure sensitive bitumen composition comprising bitumen (asphalt), synthetic rubber, high density polyethylene, amorphous polyolefin, ground vulcanized crumb rubber and, optionally, a plasticizer. The waterproofing membrane also may optionally include a removable release sheet on the adhesive layer.

Abstract: Adhesive tape suitable for flying splice of flat web material having non-polar surfaces which has been wound to form rolls, the adhesive tape comprising an upper self-adhesive composition (1, 11), a splittable carrier (2, 12) and a lower self-adhesive composition (3, 13) on the bottom face of the splittable carrier (2, 12), wherein as upper self-adhesive composition (1, 11) a silicone-free self-adhesive composition is used which has a bond strength to a polyethylene substrate of 1.5 N/cm or more (measurement method tesa test A) and an initial tack corresponding to a rolling distance of 200 mm or less (measurement method tesa test D), and as lower self-adhesive composition (3, 13) a self-adhesive composition is used which has a bond strength to a polyethylene substrate of 1.5 N/cm or more (measurement method tesa test A) and a complex viscosity of 10,000 Pa·s or more at 1 rad/s and 40° C. (measurement method tesa test F).

Abstract: There is described a label comprising a self supporting sheet of a biopolymer, preferably cellulose (e.g. regenerated cellulose, cellulose acetate and/or PLA), said sheet being substantially transparent to visible light when uncoated, wherein said sheet comprises: (a) a first coating on at least one surface thereof to aid printability thereon; (b) a second coating comprising an adhesive dispersible in an aqueous medium; and (c) optionally a third coating to modify water permeability through the sheet. The labels are to be applied to articles such as glass containers. Preferred labels are wet glue cellulose labels, for example where the first coating also comprises a copolymer of vinyl chloride and vinyl acetate to aid water permeability and hence rapid drying of the label on an article.

Abstract: A frictional holding pad removably attaches handheld items, such as a cell phone, to a surface, such as a dash, to allow storage of handheld items on the surface with the pad to prevent the items from shifting or sliding due to the movement of the support surface. A smoother application side of the pad clings to the handheld item by specific or mechanical adhesion, and a contoured exposed side of the pad clings to the surface by specific or mechanical adhesion. The smoother application side of the pad can have a greater surface area than the contoured exposed side so the pad remains with the handheld item when removed from the surface. Indicia can be formed on the pad. The pad can be translucent or transparent. The pad can include an expanded vinyl material or a polyurethane material.

Abstract: A frictional holding pad for removably attaching items, such as a cell phone or sunglasses, to a vehicle surface, such as a dash or console, to allow storage of items on the pad to prevent the items from shifting or sliding due to the movement of the vehicle. The holding pad includes a top surface having an uppermost contact surface configured to contact and frictionally cling to the item and a bottom surface having a lowermost contact surface configured to contact and cling to the vehicle surface. The top and the bottom surfaces are configured to provide a greater frictional engagement between the lowermost contact surface and the vehicle surface than the uppermost contact surface and the item.

Abstract: A tire adhesive sheet having a high adhesive strength to a tire at a wide temperature range and a good tackiness even to a studless tire is provided. The tire adhesive sheet contains a base material and an adhesive layer. The adhesive layer contains a hot-melt type adhesive composition and is constructed to satisfy adhesion characteristics of: (A) an adhesive strength of 7 N/25 mm or more with respect to a SBR plate at 5° C.; and (B) an adhesive strength of 7 N/25 mm or more with respect to a SBR plate at 40° C.
