Abstract: A radiation curable pressure-sensitive adhesive composition comprising a liquid oligomer having one or more acrylic double bonds in its molecule, a chain transfer agent and an aliphatic polar monomer having a carboxyl group can give an adhesive tape excellent in rubber-like properties, high in cohesive force and good in adhesiveness at low temperatures.

Abstract: A radiation curable adhesive composition comprising a liquid oligomer, a chain transfer agent, and an N-methyl compound can give a surface protective film which is slightly influenced in adhesive strength with the lapse of time, and excellent in weather resistance and heat resistance.

Abstract: A monolithic catalyst for purification of exhaust gases is produced by a process which comprises coating a monolithic support with an aqueous slurry composition comprising a powder of active alumina, at least one compound of a platinum-group element selected from the group consisting of platinum, palladium and rhodium, and a powder of cerium hydroxide.

Abstract: A radiation curable pressure-sensitive adhesive composition comprising 100 parts by weight of a liquid oligomer having one or more acrylic unsaturated double bonds in its molecule, 0.2 to 20 parts by weight of a thiol compound and 0.5 to 30 parts by weight of acrylic monomer has high cohesion and is excellent in adhesiveness.

Abstract: In a process for producing a radiation curable pressure sensitive adhesive tape, when a quaternary ammonium salt is coated on a substrate as an undercoating before the coating of an adhesive composition comprising a liquid oligomer and a thiol compound, the resulting adhesive tape has good adhesive strength and higher cohesion with no unpleasant odor of the thiol compound.

Abstract: A radiation curable coating media can be cured without using a laminating material prepared otherwise by running a continuous belt-like supporter so as to contact a back side of a portion of the substrate with a front side of a portion of the substrate coated with a coating media to form a laminated portion, wherein curing of the coating media is conducted by irradiation with a radiation in the absence of oxygen.

Abstract: A process for producing adhesive film comprising coating on a filmlike substrate a composition comprising (i) a copolymer having a glass transition temperature of -30.degree. C. or lower and obtained from one or more monomers (a) such as alkyl acrylates or methacrylates, or the like, and another monomers (b) containing at least one carboxyl, alcoholic hydroxyl, or glycidyl group, (ii) a crosslinking agent having at least two crosslinkable functional groups which can react with the monomers (b), (iii) one or more monofunctional addition polymerizable monomers having a boiling point of 200.degree. C. or higher, (iv) one or more polyfunctional addition polymerizable monomers having a boiling point of 200.degree. C. or higher, and (v) a photochemical initiator, and irradiating said composition with actinic light, is advantageous in that the amount of solvent to be removed after coating the composition on the substrate can be reduced remarkably without lowering properties of the resulting adhesive film.
