Abstract: A self-adhesive edge-protection tape is intended to improve the protective effect for glass edges. This is achieved by providing an adhesive tape which comprises, in sequence directed towards the substrate to be covered, a backing layer (hard phase) and a soft phase comprising a polymer foam, a viscoelastic composition and/or an elastomeric composition, where the thickness of the hard phase is ?150 ?m, the thickness of the soft phase is ?200 ?m and the ratio of the thickness of the soft phase to the thickness of the hard phase is ?4. The invention also relates to a solar module which comprises an adhesive tape according to the invention adhesive-bonded around at least one portion of the edges thereof, and the use of the claimed adhesive tape for the protection of edges of a solar module.

Abstract: Use of jagged cutters for the longitudinal cutting of double-face self-adhesive tapes with PP backing provides easy hand tearability.

Abstract: Process for producing a pressure-sensitive double-sided adhesive tape, in which a) a ready-made rubber-based backing material is introduced into a screw extruder, where 1. the backing material is heated by means of heating elements present on the screw extruder, 2. in a degassing zone, the backing material is freed from volatile constituents by means of the application of reduced pressure, 3.

Abstract: A double-sided adhesive tape having a continuous series of toothed notches of about 0.3 mm to 6 mm jag height which easily transversely tearable by hand.

Abstract: Single- or double-sidedly self-adhesively treated adhesive tape having an elastomeric backing layer, characterized in that a) the backing layer consists essentially of a styrene-butadiene copolymer, b) a self-adhesive composition is applied to one or both sides of the backing layer, and between backing layer and self-adhesive composition c) there is an interlayer comprising polyphenylene ether.

Abstract: Adhesive coating film consisting of a) a radiation-cured coat which comprises from 40 to 90% by weight, preferably from 50 to 60% by weight, of urethane acrylate, from 0 to 20% by weight, preferably from 10 to 15% by weight, of polyether acrylate, from 10 to 50% by weight, preferably from 25 to 40% by weight, of reactive diluent, from 0 to 30% by weight of pigments from 0 to 10% by weight, preferably from 2 to 5% by weight, of a carboxy-functional (meth)acrylic esther [sic], from 0 to 10% by weight of other customary coatings fillers, and in the case of curing with UV radiation, from 0 to 10% by weight, preferably from 3 to 6% by weight, of photoinitiator, and b) which carries on one side an adhesive composition which has free NCO groups in the freshly applied adhesive composition, can be plastified thermally, especially under the intended processing conditions, and has a markedly weak surface tack.
