A method for producing a thin wafer includes: separating the support body from the laminate by irradiating a wafer laminate, which includes a support body, an adhesive layer formed on the support body, and a wafer laminated with a surface thereof including a circuit plane facing the adhesive layer, with light from a side of the support body of the wafer laminate; and after separating, removing a resin layer remaining on the wafer from the wafer by peeling, wherein the adhesive layer includes only a resin layer A with a light-blocking property, and a resin layer B including a thermosetting silicone resin or a non-silicone thermoplastic resin in this order from the side of the support body.

The present invention pertains to a stabilized hot melt adhesive containing a) one or more hot melt adhesive materials and b) a stabilizer composition. The one or more hot melt adhesive materials a) include a polyolefin, a styrene-isoprene-styrene block co-polymer, a styrene-butadiene-styrene block co-polymer, a polyacrylate, an acryl-copolymer, an ethylene vinyl acetate, a polyamide, a polyester, a polyurethane, a polyimide, a silane terminated polyolefin, a silane terminated poly-ether, and a silane terminated polyurethane. The stabilizer composition includes two or three of a component (A) which is a specific sterically hindered amine, a component (B) which is a polymeric sterically hindered amine, and a component (C) which is a specific sterically hindered phenol.

A macromonomer precursor is provided that includes a polymeric chain derived from farnesene and a single functional terminal end. The functional terminal end may include a hydroxyl group, an amino group, an epoxy group, an isocyanato group, or a carboxylic acid group. The terminal end of the macromonomer precursor may then be reacted with a (meth)acrylate to form a macromonomer having a (meth)acrylate functionalized terminal end that may be (co)polymerized with radically polymerizable monomers, such as alkyl(meth)acrylate monomers. Alternatively, a copolymer may be obtained by first deriving a poly(meth)acrylate from (meth)acrylate monomers having reactive groups that would allow the macromonomer precursors to be grafted onto the poly(meth)acrylate in a second step. The resulting copolymer may be incorporated as an additive in various formulations, such as a lubricant, a hydraulic fluid, a cosmetic composition, and an adhesive composition.

A latex composition containing a carboxy-modified polymer latex, a xanthogen compound, and a typical metal compound in a form other than an oxide. This latex composition has excellent stability, can avoid delayed (Type IV) allergic reactions in addition to immediate (Type I) allergic reactions, and can provide a molded film, such as a dip-molded product, having excellent tear strength and tensile strength. Also a molded film and a substrate with an adhesive layer which are obtained using the latex composition.
