Abstract:
Magnetic recording medium, comprising a magnetic layer provided on a nonmagnetizable substrate, wherein the magnetic layer comprises a magnetic pigment dispersed in a polymeric binder. The polymeric binder comprises a nonhalogenated vinyl copolymer, wherein the vinyl copolymer comprises a plurality of pendant nitrile groups, a plurality of pendant hydroxyl groups, and at least one pendant dispersing group. Preferably, the binder also includes a secondary polymer component.
Abstract:
Low adhesion backsize (LAB) compositions including a silicone macromonomer co polymerized with a crystalline (meth)acrylate monomer to form a copolymer. The copolymer exhibits a glass transition temperature of from about −15° C. to about 55° C., and a crystalline melt transition of from about 25° C. to about 80° C. Articles including the LAB composition applied to a first major surface of a substrate. In some exemplary embodiments, the article is an adhesive article. In certain exemplary embodiments, the article is a pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) article. In some particular embodiments, the PSA article includes a silicone adhesive applied to a second major surface of the substrate opposite the LAB composition. Methods of making and using the LAB and the articles are also disclosed.

Abstract:
A novel form construction comprising a substrate (e,g., a form sheet or roll goods) having a digital printable surface portion and a release surface portion, on which release coating surface portion a signage with a pressure-sensitive adhesive can be releasably adhered. A digital printable release coating composition is also provided.
Abstract:
An article that is capable of accepting and anchoring printed indicia and yet, maintains good release properties. The article of the present invention is coated with a release agent on a substrate such as paper. Release coatings receptive to toner particles emitted by electrophotoconductive devices comprise a polymer having at least one vinyl polymeric segment having a T.sub.g between -10.degree. C. and 65.degree. C. and at least one siloxane polymeric segment.
Abstract:
Blocking is substantially reduced between individual sheets having a thermal adhesive coated thereon by including a release agent with the thermal adhesive. Preferred release agents are materials which have previously been used as low-adhesion backsize (LAB) coatings in pressure-sensitive adhesive applications.
