C from 0 to about 80 percent by weight of a second anaerobic resin having a viscosity greater than about 1000 cps at 25.degree. C, from about 9 to 95 percent by weight of a thermoplastic resin system, from 0 to about 10 percent of a latent accelerator and about 0.1 to about 10 percent of a hydroperoxide catalyst, the composition having static shear at 0.25 in.sup.

Abstract: A novel cured pressure-sensitive adhesive-coated sheet material comprising a flexible backing having bonded thereto a pressure-sensitive adhesive material containing copolymers of 2-ethyl hexyl acrylate, butyl acrylate and glycidyl acrylate or glycidyl methacrylate. The monomer-mixture for the pressure-sensitive adhesive material may also contain minor amounts of monomers with acid anhydride groups or monomers with carboxyl groups. The curing of the pressure-sensitive adhesive material is accomplished by heating the copolymers to a temperature between 60.degree. and 100.degree. C., in the presence of a zinc chloride catalyst whereby the copolymers become cross-linked to obtain a solvent-, heat- and weather-resistant pressure-sensitive adhesive-coated sheet material.

Abstract: Energy-absorbing interlayers and glass laminates prepared therefrom for use as automobile windshields and other safety glass applications are disclosed. The interlayers are made from a poly(lactone-urethane) in which the molecular weight and structure of the lactone moiety is carefully controlled so as to get optimum energy-absorbing and optical properties.

Abstract: A compound mica sheet is prepared by bonding a mica sheet to a woven fabric through a powdered epoxy resin with curing agent. The mica sheet holds a cured thermosetting resin composition impregnated therein and has an uncured epoxy resin composition including a curing agent impregnated therein. When thermosetting resin is forcedly impregnated, through vacuum/pressure impregnation, into a coil wound with the compound mica sheet which is adapted for use in medium and high voltage electric apparatus, and then cured, an excellent insulated coil is obtained.

Abstract: A sheet, having a pressure sensitive adhesive layer on the back thereof to provide a sticker, is provided with a parting line to form a sheet clipping by cutting out a part of the sheet inside the sheet. A detachable release paper is temporarily attached on the adhesive layer of the sheet. The release paper is provided with at least one parting line, not coincident with the parting line of the sheet, to form a portion of release paper temporarily attached to the sheet clipping, by cutting out a part of said release paper.The sheet clipping and the sheet can have correlated marks or designs imprinted thereon.

Abstract: Shims having improved torque retention, tensile strength, resistance to deformation, and low water absorption are formed from a resin-impregnated, cellulosic fiberboard, soaked in a solution of about 1 to about 20% by volume of methylene-bis-(4-phenyl isocyanate), and cured.

Abstract: Laminated articles of at least one sheet of relatively rigid, transparent material, e.g., glass, and polyesterurethane sheet are described. Such laminates, e.g., a bilayer assembly of one glass sheet with an adhered sheet of polyesterurethane or a trilayer assembly of two glass sheets with an interlayer of polyesterurethane sheet, are useful in safety glass applications, e.g., automobile windshields, and automobile side and rear windows. The polyesterurethane is preferably the reaction product of a cycloaliphatic diisocyanate and a relatively low molecular weight hydroxy-terminated aliphatic polyester, e.g., the esterification product of an aliphatic dibasic acid and an aliphatic diol.

The composite structure comprises (a) a substantially inflexible substrate having a plurality of orifices in the surfaces thereof that is coated, the orifices being of a shape such that, at least in part, the cross-sectional area of the orifices increases as the distance from the surface of the substrate increases, and (b) a coating of solid thermoplastic material on the surface of the substrate. The thermoplastic material extends into the orifices at least as far as into the portion of the orifice of increasing cross-sectional area. Preferably the cross-sectional area of the orifices is greater than 0.005 square inches and the thickness of the coating is at least 10 mils. The substrate is preferably a cellulosic material, e.g., wood, hardboard plywood and the like, or metal. The thermoplastic material may be asphalt, bitumen, tar or a thermoplastic polymer, especially polyethylene.

Abstract: A magnetic recording medium consists of a non-magnetic base, on which the magnetic coating is a layer of a dispersion, containing a lubricant, of a magnetic pigment in a polymeric binder. The lubricant is a block copolymer which contains siloxane units and alkyleneoxy units of 2 to 4 carbon atoms, the alkyleneoxy units being bonded to the polysiloxane radical through a Si--O--C or Si--C group. The use of this lubricant gives a magnetic recording medium which has the advantages of good fluid lubrication and an excellent coefficient of friction which does not vary with time.
