  • Publication number: 20200208007
    Abstract: A stimuli-responsive color-changing functional coating is prepared from the following raw materials: an epoxy resin, a furanone pigment, an amine curing agent, and a solvent. The furanone pigment is an organic conjugated conductive molecule. The amine curing agent reacts with the furanone pigment to form a cross-linked molecule containing a hydrogen bond that can exhibit excellent electron transition behaviors. Moreover, as the cross-linked molecule is unstable, it may give rise to electron transitions with different properties under different stimulus conditions, imparting a color-changing property to the coating that allows the coating to have different colors in response to different environmental stimuli. Experimental results show that the stimuli-responsive color-changing functional coating in the present invention has thermochromic, ultraviolet-photochromic and strongly acidochromic properties, and is responsive to diverse color-changing stimulus conditions with a wide color-changing range.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for producing a moist-crosslinking pressure-sensitive adhesive with adjustable adhesive properties, more particularly for producing thick layers of the moist-crosslinking pressure-sensitive adhesive, comprising the following steps: providing, by means of UV-initiated radical polymerisation, a covalently bonded pre-polymer containing alkoxysilyl-terminated monomers to provide a base material suitable for a pressure-sensitive adhesive; adding at least one catalyst to the pre-polymer; and moist-crosslinking this mass to provide a pressure-sensitive adhesive; wherein an aftertreatment of the pressure-sensitive adhesive to adjust application-specific mechanical and/or rheological properties to optimise the adhesive properties such as adhesion, cohesion, visco-elasticity and tack by means of steam and/or temperature. A corresponding moist-crosslinked pressure-sensitive adhesive and an adhesive tape is also described.
