Abstract:
Water activated tapes, in particular film laminated, water activated paper tapes and methods of making the same are disclosed. The film laminated, water activated paper tapes include a paper backing having a top surface and a bottom surface, a water activated adhesive applied to the bottom surface of the paper backing, and a film reinforcement structure applied to the top surface of the paper backing The film reinforcement structure includes an outermost oriented film, and a lamination layer. The lamination layer may include one or more of an enhanced polyethylene resin, a polyolefin plastomer, a very low density polyethylene, a nylon, a polyester, and a co-polyester laminating the outermost polyolefin film to the paper backing The laminating of the film reinforcement structure to the paper backing is an extrusion lamination process that includes coextruding the outermost polyolefin film and the lamination layer onto the paper backing
Abstract:
Methods for applying a liner-free, or liner-less label, to a substrate, particularly glass or plastic (e.g., polyethylene terephthalate) substrates, are described herein. The method includes applying an adhesive composition, such as a polymeric coating, to a label face sheet, activating the adhesive composition with an activating fluid, and contacting the label to the substrate. The activating fluid is preferably a mixture of water and one or more organic solvents, such as low molecular weight alcohols.
Abstract:
According to one embodiment, a self-adhesive insulation product is provided. The self-adhesive insulation product includes an elongated fibrous insulation blanket having a length, a width, a thickness, and a first major surface and a second major surface which each extend for the length and width of the fibrous insulation blanket. The self-adhesive insulation product also includes a coating of an adhesive applied to the first major surface of the fibrous insulation blanket. The adhesive includes an emulsion of a polymer material and water with the water evaporated so that the adhesive forms a dry layer atop the first major surface. The adhesive is nonbondable or nonadherable to other objects when in the dry state and is bondable or adherable to other objects upon the subsequent application of water.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a liner-free label activator, adapted to be joined to another piece of equipment, such as a thermal printer. The activator has a housing including a reservoir for containing a solvent and a pump connected to the reservoir. The activator also has an applicator connected to the pump for applying solvent to a liner-free label passing thereby, an activator control system to connect to a control system of the printer, and structure for connecting the housing to the printer.

Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a label laminate is disclosed. The method includes unwinding a first material layer, unwinding a second material layer, coating the first material layer with at least one water based adhesive layer, supporting the coated first material layer by a metal belt while heating said at least one water based adhesive layer by said metal belt in order to dry said at least one water based adhesive layer, and laminating the first material layer having at least one water based adhesive layer together with the second material layer in order to form the label laminate. The invention further relates to a label laminate and a system for manufacturing a label laminate.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a fire-resistant wallboard tape. The fire-resistant wallboard tape covers elongated joints in wallboards. This tape includes a fluid-activated, gummed adhesive, a fibrous material and a flame retardant additive. The fluid-activated, gummed adhesive is adhered to a surface of the fibrous material and is activated when wet. And since the fibrous material is a resin-impregnated body, the fibrous material will remain relatively non-moisture absorbent during activation of the fluid-activated, gummed adhesive, thereby allowing the fluid-activated, gummed adhesive to dry within several minutes after activation. This, in combination with, the flame retardant additive allows the fire-resistant wallboard tape to achieve quick drying times and at least a one-hour fire rating.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a vehicle lamp using a lamp body formed of a resin composition containing a base plastic and a plant fiber, in which adhesion between the lamp body and a front cover is excellent and there is no separation of a join between the lamp body and the front cover caused by aging.SOLUTION: A vehicle lamp 1 has a lamp body 3 with a front side open and a front cover 2 fitted to a front opening to close it. The lamp body 3 is formed of a resin composition containing a base resin and a plant fiber, and a join portion between the lamp body 3 and the front cover 2 is joined with a moisture-curable adhesive.
Abstract:
PURPOSE: An adhesive tape for battery is provided to give a weak adhesiveness capable of a temporary fixing at a room temperature and an excellent adhesiveness by a hot pressing and to prevent the exfoliation from an adherent in an electrolyte.
