A label assembly including one or more dissolvable thermal direct adhesive labels and methods of assembly and use. According to one embodiment, each label includes a base layer, a thermal direct layer, an adhesive layer, and a barrier layer. The base layer, which has an upper surface and a lower surface, is water-dissolvable and may be made of a water-dissolvable paper. The thermal direct layer is positioned directly over the upper surface of the base layer and functions in the conventional manner to produce markings therein in response to heat. The adhesive layer is water-dissolvable and is positioned below the lower surface of the base layer. The barrier layer, which is positioned directly below the lower surface of the base layer and directly over the adhesive layer, serves to prevent migration of the adhesive layer through the base layer and into contact with the thermal direct layer.

The present invention relates to biocide-composites providing high retention of biocides in glueline-treated glued-wood products that are hot-pressed or hot-pressed and block-stacked during manufacture.

Pressure-responsive particles include pressure-responsive base particles and resin particles, in which the pressure-responsive base particles contain a styrene-based resin that contains styrene and other vinyl monomers as polymerization components and a (meth)acrylic acid ester-based resin that contains at least two kinds of (meth)acrylic acid esters as polymerization components, a ratio of a mass of the (meth)acrylic acid esters to a total mass of polymerization components is 90% by mass or more in the (meth)acrylic acid ester-based resin, the pressure-responsive particles have at least two glass transition temperatures, a difference between a lowest glass transition temperature and a highest glass transition temperature is 30° C. or higher, and a ratio of a mass of the resin particles to a total mass of the pressure-responsive particles is 0.05% by mass or more and 2.0% by mass or less.

A pressure sensitive adhesive particle includes a sea-island structure constituted by a sea containing a resin A and islands containing a resin B1 and a resin B2, in which a viscosity of the resin B1 at 100° C. is smaller than a viscosity of the resin B2 at 100° C.

A breakaway adhesive coating system includes a substrate having a first substrate surface and a second substrate surface. A release coating is disposed over at least a portion of and bonded to the second substrate surface. A breakaway coating is disposed over a release coating surface opposite to the second substrate surface, the breakaway coating bonded to the release coating. An adhesive layer is disposed over a breakaway coating surface opposite to the release coating, the adhesive layer bonded to the breakaway coating.

Provided is an anti-chafing thigh guard. The anti-chafing thigh guard includes at least one adhesive patch. Each adhesive patch in the at least one adhesive patch is constructed of a linear sheet of material having a top surface and a bottom surface. The top surface defines a non-abrasive texture. The linear sheet of material comprises an elastic, flexible, water-resistant, and hypoallergenic material. The sides of the at least one adhesive patch are defined by a geometrical shape of a first linear side connecting two rounded ends which are thereby connected by a curved second side, wherein the curvature of the second side allows the at least one patch to adhere to variable polar curvature of a user's skin. The geometrical shape of each patch provides a surface area configured to provide full coverage of an area of a user's skin subject to increased friction.
