  • Patent number: 8686060
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to an adhesive composition comprising a crosslinkable acrylic copolymer, a multi-functionalized crosslinkable oligomer and a photoinitiator wherein the partially cured composition exhibits excellent wet out characteristics as reflected in a tan delta value of at least 0.4, preferably greater than 0.5, more preferable greater than 0.6 as measured at 20° C. resulting from a first curing stage, and the fully cured composition exhibits an improved stiffness and temperature resistance as reflected in a storage elastic modulus of at least 175,000 Pa at 20° C. and a shear adhesion failure temperature of at least 425° F. (218.3° C.) at 1 Kg/in2 (0.155 Kg/cm2), respectively, which result from a second sequential curing stage.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 11, 2012
    Date of Patent: April 1, 2014
    Assignee: Morgan Adhesives Company
    Inventors: Timothy Michael Smith, Gary Allan McMaster

  • Patent number: 8242185
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to an adhesive composition comprising a crosslinkable acrylic copolymer, a multi-functionalized crosslinkable oligomer and a photoinitiator wherein the composition exhibits excellent wet out characteristics as reflected in a tan delta value of at least 0.5, preferably greater than 0.5, more preferable greater than 0.8 as measured at 20° C. resulting from a first curing stage, and improved stiffness and temperature resistance as reflected in a storage elastic modulus of at least 300,000 Pa at 20° C. and a shear adhesion failure temperature of at least 425° F. (218.3° C.) at 1 Kg/in2 (0.155 Kg/cm2), respectively, which result from a second sequential curing stage.
