Abstract:
A method includes contact printing an active composition onto a surface of a release substrate to form a printed surface. The active composition spontaneously dewets the surface of the release substrate to form active deposits on the surface of the release substrate. The active composition comprises an active agent dissolved or dispersed in an aqueous liquid vehicle. A pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is disposed on the printed surface.
Abstract:
Articles are provided, having a first substrate and a polymeric structure wrapped around the first substrate at least two full circuits. The polymeric structure has a length, a width and a thickness, and comprises a crosslinked polymeric layer uniaxially oriented in the width direction at a draw ratio of at least 1.2:1. The length is greater than the width. A method is also provided including providing a polymeric structure, wrapping the polymeric structure around a first substrate at least two full circuits, positioning the polymeric structure at least partially within an aperture defined by a second substrate, and subjecting the polymeric structure to an elevated temperature above the transition temperature of the crosslinked polymeric layer and below the degradation temperature of each of the components in the polymeric structure. The thickness of the polymeric structure increases, creating at least a partial joint between the first substrate and the second substrate.

Abstract:
The present disclosure provides a two-part composition polymeric material including a first part and a second part. The first part includes an inorganic filler and a polymeric material including a polymerized reaction product of a polymerizable composition including components. The components include a uretdione-containing material including a reaction product of a diisocyanate reacted with itself; a first hydroxyl-containing compound; and an optional second hydroxyl-containing compound having a single OH group. The second part includes a polythiol having an average sulfhydryl group functionality of 2 or greater. Further, a method of adhering two substrates is provided, including obtaining a two-part composition; combining at least a portion of the first part with at least a portion of the second part to form a mixture; disposing at least a portion of the mixture on a first substrate; and contacting a second substrate with the mixture disposed on the first substrate. The disclosure also provides a polymerized product of the two-part composition and a battery module. Advantageously, two-part compositions can be used as coatings and adhesive systems including high loadings of inorganic filler, such as thermally conductive filler, with handling and performance similar to existing two-part urethane systems, but with less sensitivity to water.
