Abstract: A release liner for business form and label constructions comprises a substrate of carbonizing bond paper having a weight of between about 35-80 grams per square meter. A radiation (e.g. U.V.) curable silicone polymer blend is coated on the first face of the substrate with a coating weight of between about 0.8-2.3 grams per square meter. The silicone polymer blend comprises a large part base silicone polymer and optionally up to 40% of tight release additive, about 1 to 5% photoinitiator, and possibly substantially inert ingredients. A paper face of the form or label having a weight of between about 65-99 grams per square meter has a hot melt permanent or removable pressure sensitive adhesive on one of its faces, either applied directly or transferred to it if coated on the silicone, the adhesive in contact with the release liner. The form or label is substantially curl free after running through a laser printer.

Abstract: A web of labels, particularly linerless labels, is produced which has specially formed perforation lines that are neither too strong or too weak. Each perforation line comprises alternating cuts and ties, including a cut to tie ratio of 0.18.times.0.008 to 0.012.times.0.008, and between 30-58 cuts per inch. Where permanent adhesive is used for the linerless labels, each perforation line comprises 45-58 cuts per inch, and has a percent of hold of 45-58%, with each cut having a thickness of about 0.028 inches. When repositional adhesive is used each perforation line comprises 30-45 cuts per inch, with a percent of hold of 25-35%. At least one, and typically substantially all, of the perforation lines have substantially V or U-shaped enlarged end terminations to facilitate dispensing of the labels. The perforations are formed by applying a perforation pressure of about 500-600 lbs.
