  • Patent number: 11913551
    Abstract: Housing seals and methods seal off a housing interior from a housing exterior. The housing seals and methods comprise an elastic adhesive strip that is arranged between a first housing element and a second housing element, wherein the adhesive strip comprises a first end portion having a first edge face, and a second end portion having a second edge face, wherein the adhesive strip and is arranged between the first housing element and the second housing element in such a way that the first and second edge faces lie substantially in a plane, the adhesive strip is arranged between the first housing element and the second housing element in a closed circulation, and the first edge face of the adhesive strip is in contact with the second edge face of the adhesive strip and forms a sealing gap.

  • Publication number: 20200095477
    Abstract: Adhesive tapes and methods comprise an adhesive composition and a release material. One adhesive tape may have a release material comprising a peel tab region and an adhesive composition region, the adhesive composition region may bear the applied adhesive composition, the adhesive tape may extend along a lengthwise direction of the adhesive tape, and the peel tab region may extend perpendicularly to the lengthwise direction of the adhesive tape. The one adhesive tape may be configured in such a way that the extent of the peel tab region along the lengthwise direction varies.

  • Patent number: 9899552
    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.
