A method for improving cycling performance of a battery includes, in a first stage, charging the battery with a first-stage current until a voltage of the battery reaches a first-stage voltage value and in a second stage, charging the battery with a second-stage current until the voltage of the battery reaches a second-stage voltage value. The second-stage voltage value is greater than the first-stage voltage value, and the second-stage current is less than the first-stage current.

Provided is an adhesive tape that has higher self-adhesion force and higher self-adhesive creep resistance and does not have an odor problem of the adhesive face while maintaining HM workability. A hot-melt adhesive composition of the present invention contains at least an elastomer, a tackifier resin, a filler, and a petroleum-based plasticizer, in which the elastomer is a specific styrene-isoprene-styrene block copolymer and a terpene resin, a C5/C9 petroleum resin, and a homopolymer of a styrene-based monomer and/or a copolymer of a styrene-based monomer/an aliphatic monomer are contained as the tackifier resin.

A method of using a self-stick insulation. The method includes providing a piece of insulation product with an adhesive coating. The adhesive coating includes polystyrene-maleic anhydride (SMA) and/or polyacrylic acid (PAA); an alcohol amine; and at least one of a polyvinyl alcohol and a starch. The adhesive coating is then activated with liquid water. Once the adhesive coating is active, the insulation product is attached to a surface with the adhesive coating.

The present disclosure provides adhesive articles that can be removed from surfaces without damage by having reduced or eliminated contribution of a core backing to peel force generated by the adhesive during removal. In some instances, this can be accomplished by a core that loses structural integrity in a direction normal to a plane defined by a major surface. In other instances, the contribution is reduced by compromising the interface between the core and a peelable adhesive layer.

Embodiments of this invention relate to methods of adhering in an aqueous environment. More specifically, embodiments of this invention relate to use of a copolymer mimics of mussel adhesive proteins as a high-strength adhesive in aqueous environments.

The present invention relates to an adhesive compositions, facestocks and/or packaging labels containing same, where such compositions, facestocks and/or labels are designed to facilitate the recyclability of a plastic article formed from any suitable polymer or mixture of polymers (e.g., a polyethylene terephthalate (PET), high density polyethylene (HDPE), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), low density polyethylene (LDPE), polypropylene (PP), polystyrene (PS), or others of all plastic types), or even glass bottles. In another embodiment, the present invention relates to a method for removing an adhesive composition, facestock and/or packaging label containing same, from a plastic article that is to be recycled.

A pressure sensitive adhesive particle includes a pressure sensitive adhesive base particle that contains a styrene resin containing styrene and a vinyl monomer other than styrene as polymerization components, and a (meth)acrylate resin containing at least two (meth)acrylates as polymerization components, in which a mass ratio of the (meth)acrylates relative to a total of polymerization components of the (meth)acrylate resin is 90 mass % or more; and an external additive. The pressure sensitive adhesive particle has a surface having an arithmetic average roughness Ra within a range of 0.005 μm to 0.100 μm. The pressure sensitive adhesive particle has at least two glass transition temperatures, and the difference between the lowest glass transition temperature and the highest glass transition temperature among the glass transition temperatures of the pressure sensitive adhesive particle is 30° C. or more.

A pre-laid polymer waterproof rolling material, which comprises a sheet-like polymer carrier, a hot-melt pressure-sensitive adhesive layer on the sheet-like polymer carrier, and an anti-sticking coating on the hot-melt pressure-sensitive adhesive layer; The anti-sticking coating comprises the following components: 100-160 parts by weight of water; 50-80 parts by weight of a polyurethane resin; 15-20 parts by weight of a pigment; 10-12 parts by weight of a filler; 0.3-1 part by weight of a cross-linking agent; 0.5-1 part by weight of an antioxidant; 1-2.5 parts by weight of an anti-ultraviolet agent; and 0.03-0.2 part by weight of a thickener. The anti-sticking coating in the present application uses water as a solvent, water is non-toxic and non-corrosive, thus there is no environmental pollution problem in the production process.

A display device including a display panel, a variable adhesive layer disposed on the display panel and a cover member disposed on the variable adhesive layer is provided. The variable adhesive layer includes a block copolymer and a plasticizer mixture, and the plasticizer mixture has a low critical solution temperature (LCST) of 60° C. to 80° C. The plasticizer mixture is phase-separated into two phases at a temperature equal to or higher than the low critical solution temperature, thereby significantly lowering adhesion of the variable adhesive layer. Accordingly, the display device of the present disclosure has excellent adhesion reliability and provides an advantage of easy reworking since the adhesion significantly decreases at a temperature equal to or higher than the low critical solution temperature. In addition, the display device has excellent folding characteristics due to the presence of the plasticizers.
