The present disclosure is drawn to re-workable adhesives for electronic devices. In one example, a re-workable adhesive for an electronic device can include a hot-melt adhesive present in an amount from about 60 wt % to about 90 wt % with respect to the total weight of the re-workable adhesive. The hot-melt adhesive can have a reduced bond strength at an elevated temperature. The re-workable adhesive can also include a pressure-sensitive adhesive present in an amount from about 10 wt % to about 40 wt % with respect to the total weight of the re-workable adhesive, wherein the pressure-sensitive adhesive has a higher bond strength compared to the hot-melt adhesive when at the elevated temperature.

The present invention provides a tire innerliner film coated with a new rubber adhesive liquid containing a specific component in a specific admixing ratio, a pneumatic tire manufactured using the innerliner film, and a method of manufacturing a pneumatic tire. The method of manufacturing a pneumatic tire includes the steps of winding a tire building drum with an innerliner film coated with the above rubber adhesive liquid; and overlapping both ends of the innerliner film with each other to form a splice joint, wherein the rubber adhesive liquid is coated in a thickness of 10 to 100 m, and the splice joint has a length of 20 to 100 mm.
