This invention relates to a reworkable adhesive composition for assembling optical electronic devices. In particular, the present invention relates to a reworkable adhesive composition offering, when cured, a good bonding strength at room temperature and an excellent reworkability at elevated temperature.

Provided is a composition for a non-aqueous secondary battery adhesive layer containing organic particles, a thixotropic agent, and water. The organic particles have a core-shell structure including a core portion and a shell portion at least partially covering an outer surface of the core portion. The composition for a non-aqueous secondary battery adhesive layer has a viscosity η.sub.0 at a shear rate of 100 s.sup.−1 of less than 10 mPa.Math.s, a viscosity η.sub.1 at a shear rate of 10,000 s.sup.−1 of not less than 0.5 mPa.Math.s and not more than 2.4 mPa.Math.s, and a ratio (η.sub.0/η.sub.1) of the viscosity η.sub.0 relative to the viscosity η.sub.1 of not less than 1.2 and not more than 10.

Disclosed is a moisture curable adhesive composition comprising at least one silane-modified polymer, a filler comprising a surface modified fumed silica and one of a surface modified cristobalite and a silica; and optionally, at least one of an aminosilane adhesion promotor, an organotin catalyst, a dehydration shelf life enhancer, a light stabilizer, titanium dioxide, a rheology modifier, and mixtures thereof. The adhesive composition finds special use in bonding metal substrates to each other with significantly higher bond strength than that provided by silane-modified polymer adhesives alone.

A composition comprising, in weight percent (wt %) based on the weight of the composition: (A) greater than zero to 39 wt % of at least one of a polar olefin polymer and a styrenic block copolymer; (B) greater than zero to 20 wt % of an epoxy or amine-functionalized silane; (C) 60 to 99 wt % of an organic solvent for a mixture of (1) the polar olefin polymer and/or styrenic block copolymer, and (2) the epoxy or amine-functionalized silane; and (D) zero to 10 wt % of a polyisocyanate crosslinking agent.

A tissue adhesive material that provides fast and robust adhesion even on tissue surfaces covered in bodily fluids. The tissue adhesive material is formed of a hydrophobic matrix and a plurality of bioadhesive microparticles dispersed within the hydrophobic matrix configured such that disposing the adhesive material directly on a fluid covered surface and applying pressure causes the (a) hydrophobic matrix to repel the fluid, (b) the bioadhesive particles to compress forming an adhesive layer, and (c) the bioadhesive particles to form temporary crosslinks followed by covalent crosslinks with the surface.

Adhesive compositions that include polymerized units of one or more (meth)acrylate ester monomers derived from an alcohol containing 1 to 14 carbon atoms; polyvinyl acetal resin; and at least one initiator; and articles containing such compositions.

Thermoplastic elastomer compositions comprising acrylic multigraft copolymers are described. The multigraft copolymers comprise a rubbery polyacrylate backbone and a plurality of randomly spaced glassy polyacrylate side chains. The multigraft copolymers can be prepared using a facile grafting through method that can provide copolymers with enhanced purity. The acrylic multigraft copolymers exhibit microphase separated morphologies and “superelastomeric” properties, including an elongation at break, strain at break, and/or strain recovery behavior that exceeds that of conventional triblock copolymer polyacrylate thermoplastic elastomers.

A bonding material is described that is well suited to bonding polymer films, such as polyester films, to other substrates. In one embodiment, for instance, the bonding material can be used to bond a polyester film to a polypropylene article. The bonding material generally comprises an adhesive agent combined with a cross-linking agent. The adhesive agent may comprise a carboxylic acid modified polypropylene homopolymer, copolymer or ionomer. In one embodiment, the adhesive agent comprises a polypropylene modified by an unsaturated dicarboxylic acid anhydride. The cross-linking agent, on the other hand, may comprise an oxazoline polymer.
