The present invention provides an adhesive film hardly suffering from fisheyes and deposition of dirt and dusts thereonto and having excellent mechanical strength and heat resistance as well as good adhesion properties, which can be suitably used as various surface protective films, etc. The present invention relates to an adhesive film comprising a polyester film and an adhesive layer formed on at least one surface of the polyester film, in which the adhesive layer comprises a resin having a glass transition point of not higher than 0° C., and an antistatic agent, and a thickness of the adhesive layer is not more than 10 μm.

Optically clear curable adhesive films that are heat conformable prior to setting include a reactive composition. The curable films are flexible and free-standing, and have a complex viscosity of greater than 100,000 poise (10,000 Pascal seconds) at 25° C. and less than 100 poise (10 Pascal seconds) at 85° C., prior to setting. The set film has an adhesive shear strength of greater than 100 Newtons per square centimeter (N/cm.sup.2) to a glass substrate when measured according to the Shear Adhesion Test Method. The reactive composition includes an ethylenically unsaturated polyester-containing oligomeric composition that is the reaction product of a saturated, amorphous co-polyester polyol and a compound with a terminal polyol-reactive group and a terminal ethylenically unsaturated group, a (meth)acrylate functional material, and at least one initiator.

A one-side-protected polarizing film having a transparent protective film on only one surface of a polarizer, wherein: the polarizer contains a polyvinyl alcohol-based resin, has a thickness of 10 μm or less, and is designed to have a single-body transmittance T and a polarization degree P representing optical properties satisfying the condition of the following formula: P>−(10.sup.0.929T−42.4−1)×100 (provided that T<42.3) or P≧99.9 (provided that T≧42.3); and the other surface of the polarizer has a transparent layer thereon satisfying formula 1 (F≧3) and formula 2 (C≧e.sup.−0.7F), given that the thickness thereof is F (μm) and the compressive elastic modulus thereof at 80° C. is C (GPa). Even when the polarizer has prescribed optical properties and the thickness is 10 μm or less, this one-side-protected polarizing film is capable of suppressing through cracks and nano-slits.

An insulating medium rubber film and a production method thereof, and a multi-layer printed-circuit board. The insulating medium rubber film includes a release film and an insulating medium layer arranged on the surface of the release film, where materials of the insulating medium layer include saturated polyester resin, amino resin or blocked isocyanate, epoxy resin, a curing agent, inorganic filler and a curing accelerator. According to the insulating medium rubber film and the production method thereof and the multi-layer printed-circuit board, by introducing the saturated polyester resin component into an epoxy resin composition, the produced insulating medium rubber film has the advantages that a dielectric constant is low, a dielectric dissipation factor is low, thermal expansion is not liable to happen, and adhesion is good.

The adhesive agent has an adhesive force (α) of not less than 1 N/25 mm as measured under predetermined conditions.

A suspended-particle device with improved adhesion between the active and conductive layers is disclosed. The conductive layers are coated with an adhesion promoter that comprises at least one organosilane that covalently bonds to the surface of the conductive layer and comprises a cross-linkable moiety such as an acrylate. The active layer comprises a suspension of active particles in a polymer matrix that comprises a polymer having pendant cross-linkable moieties such as acrylates. Upon curing (e.g. by irradiation by ultraviolet light), the polymer matrix of the active layer cross-links with the cross-linkable moieties of the adhesion promoter, thereby binding the active and conductive layers.
