A self-stick insulation includes an insulation product and an adhesive coating applied to a major surface of the insulation product. The adhesive coating includes between about 5-15% by weight of the adhesive coating of at least one of polystyrene-maleic anhydride (SMA) and polyacrylic acid (PAA), between about 1 and 8% by weight of the adhesive coating of an alcohol amine, between about 25 and 50% by weight of the adhesive coating of a polyvinyl alcohol, and between about 20 and 40% by weight of the adhesive coating of a starch paste. The adhesive is activated with the application of liquid water.

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.

Peelable polymeric film, in particular, peelable polymeric film which comprises a polymeric substrate layer and a coating layer of adhesive, and which is of particular use in the manufacture of electronic devices is described. The adhesive layer is derived from an aqueous composition which comprises an aliphatic polyurethane and is switchable.

Disclosed is an adhesive for packaging materials being in a form of an aqueous dispersion including an acid-modified polyolefin resin containing a (meth)acrylic acid ester component, polyvinyl alcohol and an aqueous medium, wherein the content of polyvinyl alcohol is 0.1 to 10 parts by mass in relation to 100 parts by mass of the acid-modified polyolefin resin. Also disclosed is a packaging material using the adhesive wherein a barrier layer, an adhesive layer formed of a coating film obtained from the adhesive, and a sealant layer are laminated in this order.

A water-based adhesive applied to wood and bamboo includes a main agent composed of water-soluble polymer, synthetic rubber latex and natural latex and a curing agent selected from isocyanate or quaternary ammonium salt polymer. Wherein, the weight ratio of the main agent to the curing agent is between 200:1 and 1:1; the water-soluble polymer is polyvinyl alcohol and is about 2-30 weight percent of the total solids of the main agent; the synthetic rubber latex is about 2-60 weight percent of the total solids of the main agent; and the natural latex is about 5-90 weight percent of the total solids of the main agent. The present invention provides a formaldehyde-free adhesive and introduces natural and renewable raw materials to reduce dependence on petrochemical products and improve the sustainability of related industries.
