Publication number: 20100098846Abstract: A method is disclosed for making a soft adhesive tape. The method comprises providing a soft adhesive, rolling a gravure cylinder on the soft adhesive to meter the soft adhesive, depositing the metered soft adhesive from the gravure cylinder onto a carrier web, and transferring the soft adhesive to a backing substrate. In exemplary implementations, the method includes drying or curing the metered soft adhesive on the carrier web before transferring the soft adhesive to the backing substrate. A system is disclosed for making a layer of soft adhesive. The system comprises an applicator containing a soft adhesive, a gravure cylinder to meter the soft adhesive from the applicator, and a carrier web passing through the gravure cylinder, the carrier web supporting the metered soft adhesive deposited by the gravure cylinder. In exemplary implementations, a dryer may be included for curing the metered soft adhesive on the carrier web.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 28, 2009Publication date: April 22, 2010Applicant: SCAPA NORTH AMERICAInventors: Jian Ling Ding, Rengan Kannabiran, Kathryn Moon, Robert Braiewa, Brian Thomas

Publication number: 20080113140Abstract: A adhesive tape is having a first substrate layer, an adhesive layer, and a release layer. The first substrate layer has a first side and a second side, and the first substrate layer is embossed with a traction enhancing pattern. The adhesive layer is attached to the first layer side of the first substrate layer to adhere the tape to a surface. The adhesive layer does not leave substantial adhesive residue on the surface upon detachment of the adhesive tape from the surface. The release layer is on the second side of the first substrate layer to reinforce the substrate layer and to facilitate release of the adhesive layer from the release layer when the tape is overlapped on itself. The tape may be used effectively in converting industries to mask or protect idler rollers.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 7, 2007Publication date: May 15, 2008Applicant: SCAPA NORTH AMERICAInventor: Jaykumar Shah
