Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to conformable adhesive articles that are capable of attaching or adhering to a substrate and that can be removed from the substrate without causing damage to the substrate. The present disclosure also generally relates to methods of making and using such adhesive articles. In some embodiments, the adhesive article includes (1) a releasable layer having a first major surface and a second major surface; the second major surfaces including a pressure sensitive adhesive capable of adhering the adhesive article to a surface; and (2) a compliant layer having a first major surface and a second major surface; the second major surface of the compliant layer adjacent to the first major surface of the releasable layer. In some embodiments, the releasable layer debonds from both the surface and the compliant layer when the adhesive article is stretch released at an angle of less than 35 degrees.

Abstract: A stretch releasing pressure-sensitive adhesive article that includes a backing that includes a layer of foam having a density of from about 7 pounds per cubic foot to about 15 pounds per cubic foot, a caliper of from about 0.01 inch to less than 0.020 inch, a first major surface and a second major surface opposite the first major surface, a first pressure-sensitive adhesive composition disposed on the first major surface of the layer of foam and in direct contact with the layer of foam. The article exhibits at least about 40% surface contact to a standardized textured surface.
