Abstract:
An adhesive composition is described comprising a tackifier and at least one grafted isobutylene copolymer. The grafted isobutylene copolymer has the formula: R1—(R2—Z) wherein R1 represents an isobutylene copolymer, R2 is a covalent bond or multivalent alkylene or arylene, and Z is a grafted polymer. Z is typically a homopolymer of copolymer comprising alkene repeat units, aralkylene repeat units, or a combination thereof. Also described are adhesive coated articles, methods of making adhesive coated articles, and grafted isobutylene polymers.
Abstract:
A film is described comprising a first film layer having a Tg ranging from 30° C. to 60° C. The first film layer comprises a (meth)acrylic polymer and polyvinyl acetal polymer composition. The film further comprises a second layer proximate the first film layer. The second layer is different than the first film layer. The second may be a cured (meth)acrylic polymer film or coating; a backing such as thermoplastic polymer, woven or nonwoven fabrics, metal foils, paper, foams; or a coverfilm such as a fluoropolymer.
Abstract:
A graphic film is described comprising a first film layer having a Tg ranging from 30° C. to 60° C. The first film layer comprises a (meth)acrylic polymer and polyvinyl acetal polymer. In typical embodiments, the graphic film further comprises a design, image, graphic, or text. Also described is a method of forming a graphic film comprising providing a film comprising a first film layer having a Tg ranging from 30° C. to 60° C. comprising a (meth)acrylic polymer and polyvinyl acetal polymer and providing a graphic proximate the film.
Abstract:
A photochromic article is provided, containing a polymer and a polyoxometalate and counter cation complex distributed in the polymer. A method of forming a photochromic film is also provided, including forming a composition containing a polymer or a precursor of the polymer and a polyoxometalate and counter cation complex and preparing a film from the composition, the film containing the polyoxometalate and counter cation complex distributed in the polymer. Further, a precursor composition is provided, including a polymer or a precursor of the polymer and a polyoxometalate anion and a counter cation.
