  • Publication number: 20110020643
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a surface protective sheet having a pressure-sensitive adhesive comprised a thermoplastic elastomer as a main component on at least one surface of a substrate, wherein the pressure-sensitive adhesive comprises a hydrogenation product of styrene random copolymer, an amorphous polypropylene elastomer, a tackifier resin, and a softener, wherein hydrogenation product of styrene random copolymer:amorphous polypropylene elastomer is more than 0:less than 100 to less than 80:more than 20, when the total of the hydrogenation product of styrene random copolymer and the amorphous polypropylene elastomer is taken as 100.

  • Publication number: 20080286571
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a surface protective sheet having a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer on at least one side of a substrate; wherein, the pressure-sensitive adhesive contains 100 parts by weight of a styrene-isobutylene block copolymer, and 0 to 300 parts by weight of a softening agent and 0 to less than 20 parts by weight of a tackifying resin, both based on 100 parts by weight of the styrene-isobutylene block copolymer.

  • Patent number: 6872447
    Abstract: The pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet for surface protection has a three-layered film formed by laminating a layer A, a layer B and a layer C in this order and a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer formed on the layer C; wherein the layer A contains a polyethylene in an amount of at least 60% by weight based on a total weight of the layer A; the layer B contains a polypropylene type polymer in an amount of at least 50% by weight of based on a total weight of the layer B; and the layer C contains a hydrogenated styrene/diene type hydrocarbon copolymer in an amount of at least 10% by weight based on the total weight of the layer C. This sheet has excellent weathering resistance to undergo neither chalking nor fracture in the substrate at peeling, even after a prolonged outdoor exposure, develops less corona odor to enable extended operation of applying it, and can be manufactured inexpensively with reduced manufacturing process, since no anchor coat treating procedure is required.

  • Patent number: 6274235
    Abstract: The present invention is to provide a pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet for surface protection, which has a substrate containing an ethylene/propylene copolymer and an ethylene/1-butene copolymer in a weight ratio of 60:40 to 90:10, and an adhesive composition for pressure-sensitive adhesive sheets for surface protection, which contains 5 to 30 parts by weight of a rosin resin tackifier based on 100 parts by weight of a blend comprising 50 to 100% by weight of a polyisobutylene and/or a butyl rubber and 50 to 0% by weight of a polybutene.
