  • Patent number: 10696871
    Abstract: A pressure-sensitive adhesive transfer tape that may have on one surface of a release substrate made of paper or a plastic film, a pressure-sensitive transfer layer having an adhesion inhibiting layer and an adhesive layer, wherein the adhesion inhibiting layer and the adhesive layer are successively stacked on one another. The adhesion inhibiting layer may prevent the adhesive layer formed on one adherend from being in contact with another adherend to weaken the adhesion between the one and another adherends, enabling the one and another adherends to be easily separated from each other. With the passage of time after being put on one another, the adhesion inhibiting layer may migrate to another adherend, so that the adherend is in contact with the adhesive layer, exhibiting strong adhesion properties between the adherends.

  • Publication number: 20160186015
    Abstract: Provided are a more useful pressure-sensitive adhesive transfer tape and a transferring implement, which are advantageous not only in that, immediately after adherends, such as paper, are put on one another, the adherends can be easily separated from each other and re-bonded together, but also in that, after a predetermined period of time has lapsed from the time when the adherends are put on one another, the adherends are strongly bonded to each other. A pressure-sensitive adhesive transfer tape having, on one surface of a release substrate having release layers formed on both surfaces of a paper or plastic film substrate, a pressure-sensitive transfer layer having an adhesion inhibiting layer made of a terpene or rosin resin or the like and an adhesive layer, wherein the adhesion inhibiting layer and the adhesive layer are successively stacked on one another, and a transferring implement having the same.

  • Patent number: 9032730
    Abstract: A solar receiver is disposed on a top portion of a tower provided upright on the ground for heating a compressible working fluid by means of heat converted from sunlight collected by heliostats disposed on the ground, to raise the temperature of the compressible working fluid. The solar receiver has modules disposed back-to-back, and each of which includes a casing having a bottom plate to be fixed to the top-portion upper surface of the tower. A heat-transfer-tube unit is accommodated in the casing and includes heat transfer tubes. A sunlight inlet port having a circular shape in front view or an elliptical shape in front view is provided at the center portion of a plate-like member whose lower end is connected to an outer circumferential end of the bottom plate to constitute the casing and that extends obliquely upward from the outer circumferential end.
