The present invention relates to a thermoplastic hot melt film having excellent adhesive strength in which hydrophobic nanosilica is mixed. The resin composition contains nanosilica having a particle size of 1 to 100 nm and containing hydrophobic functional groups on its surface in the range of 0.1 to 5 phr (Parts per Hundred Resin), and the nanosilica forms nanosilica aggregates with an average size of the aggregates is within 100˜1200 nm. The thickness of the thermoplastic hot melt film is 0.02˜0.3 mm. The thermoplastic hot melt film of the present invention is mixed with nanosilica containing hydrophobic functional groups, lipophilic, on the surface to improve dispersibility, strengthen water resistance, and increase tensile strength. The material cost is reduced while securing one adhesive strength and excellent durability, and multi-press molding is possible, which has the effect of increasing energy saving and productivity.

The present invention provides an epoxy adhesive composition that is excellent in compatibility and storage stability, has high strength and excellent adhesiveness, is capable of reducing occurrence of warping or peeling when used for bonding different materials, and is also excellent in impact resistance after being cured. Provided is an epoxy adhesive composition including: a modified polyvinyl acetal resin having a constitutional unit with an acid-modified group; and an epoxy resin, the epoxy adhesive composition containing an organic solvent in an amount of 10.0% by weight or less.

Methods of bonding hardware to glass and other substrates are provided that do not require use of primers, mixing, fixturing, or autoclaving. These methods include the steps of disposing an adhesive layer on a bonding surface of either the hardware or the vehicular glass, the adhesive layer comprising a curable composition that is dimensionally stable at ambient conditions; either before or after disposing the adhesive layer on the bonding surface, irradiating the adhesive layer with ultraviolet radiation to initiate curing of the curable composition; placing the hardware so as to be bonded to the vehicular glass by the adhesive layer; and allowing the adhesive layer to cure.

Contact adhesive compositions comprising polychloroprene and, based on the polychloroprene content, 10 to 99 wt % of ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer exhibit outstanding adhesion to substrates such as ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers, thermoplastic elastomers or flexible PVC. The contact adhesive compositions of the invention are especially suitable for use in the bonding of articles, preferably articles in which at least part of the articles to be bonded consists of polyurethane, flexible PVC, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers and/or thermoplastic elastomers. This allows the adhesive composition to be employed widely in the footwear industry, for the bonding of roofing membranes containing flexible PVC, ethylene-propylene-diene rubber (EPDM) and/or ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers, or for the bonding of synthetic leather based on flexible PVC.

The present disclosure relates generally to building surface joint supports, for example, suitable for covering a seam between two building surface panels, such as drywall. The present disclosure relates more particularly to a joint support including an encapsulated adhesive for securing the joint support to the building surface panels. The joint support includes a support strip having a width, a length, a first end, a second end, a contact surface, and an outer surface. An adhesive is disposed on the contact surface of the support strip. The adhesive includes a first set of capsules and each capsule of the first set of capsules includes a membrane enclosing a first component of an adhesive composition.

Modified thermoplastic hydrocarbon thermoplastic resins are provided, as well as methods of their manufacture and uses thereof in rubber compositions. The modified thermoplastic resins are modified by decreasing the relative quantity of the dimer, trimer, tetramer, and pentamer oligomers as compared to the corresponding unmodified thermoplastic resin polymers, resulting in a product that exhibits a greater shift in the glass transition temperature of the elastomer(s) used in tire formulations. This translates to better viscoelastic predictors of tire tread performance, such as wet grip and rolling resistance. The modified thermoplastic resins impart remarkable properties on various rubber compositions, such as tires, belts, hoses, brakes, and the like. Automobile tires incorporating the modified thermoplastic resins are shown to possess excellent results in balancing the properties of rolling resistance, tire wear, snow performance, and wet braking performance.

The present disclosure, in one embodiment, relates to a system and method to transfer material to a substrate. In one embodiment, the system for material transfer includes an adhesive sheet and a transfer material sheet. The adhesive sheet comprises an adhesive, such as ethylene acrylic acid (EAA), ethylene methacrylic acid (EMAA), or ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA), and a paper release backing. The paper release backing may comprise supercalendered kraft base paper. The transfer material sheet may include a transfer material and a material release liner. The transfer material may be metallized polyester
