Abstract: A pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet has a high adhesiveness and an excellent terminal peeling resistance as well as exhibits extremely small diffusing amounts of formaldehyde and toluene. The pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet contains at least a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer of a water-dispersion type acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive containing a water-dispersion type acrylic polymer and a tackifying resin-containing emulsion, wherein a diffusing amount of formaldehyde is less than 3 ?g/m3 and a diffusing amount of toluene is 10 ?g/g or less. As the tackifying resin-containing emulsion, a tackifying resin-containing emulsion prepared using substantially no organic solvents or a tackifying resin-containing emulsion prepared using a material other than aromatic hydrocarbon-based organic solvents can be suitably employed.

Abstract: Provided is a PSA sheet with low toluene and total volatile organic compound (TVOC) emissions as well as low unpleasant odor level felt by users. The PSA sheet comprises a PSA layer formed of a PSA composition comprising an acrylic polymer emulsion and a tackifier resin emulsion; the toluene and TVOC emissions are at most 20 ?g and at most 150 ?g, respectively; in a sensory test, 90% of participants evaluate that the unpleasantness of odors emitted from the PSA sheet is less than that of toluene at a prescribed concentration.

Abstract: The purpose of the invention is to obtain a water-dispersible adhesive composition capable of coating in an aqueous system and, particularly, an adhesive composition capable of preparing a removable water-dispersible acrylic adhesive sheet with less contamination to the surface of an adherend and having high resistance to water intrusion during wafer polishing, which is particularly suitable as an adhesive sheet for use in semiconductor wafer processing.
