The present invention relates to curable photochromic compositions which include an at least di-functional oxazoline functional material, an at least di-functional first carboxylic acid functional material, an optional second carboxylic acid functional material having at least three carboxylic acid groups, which optionally includes a carboxylic acid functional polymer, and a photochromic compound. The curable photochromic compositions have an equivalents ratio of oxazoline equivalents of the oxazoline functional material to a total carboxylic acid equivalents of the first and optional second carboxylic acid functional materials of from 0.5:1 to 10:1 when the second carboxylic acid functional material is not present, and from 0.5:1 to 3:1 when the second carboxylic acid functional material is present. The present invention, more particularly, relates to curable photochromic adhesive compositions, and curable photochromic coating compositions.

A carrier tape holding electrical components to a reel around which the carrier tape is wound is provided. Furthermore, the present disclosure is related to a pick-and-place apparatus for receiving this carrier tape and for picking and placing the electrical components arranged in the carrier tape. The carrier tape according to an aspect of the present disclosure includes an adhesive film that forms a bottom wall of the cavities in which a plurality of electrical components is arranged. The adhesive of the adhesive film is configured to substantially release the attachment of the electrical component as a result of heating the adhesive and/or as a result of irradiating the adhesive using light, such as visible light, infrared light, or ultraviolet light, for the purpose of allowing the electrical component to be removed from the cavity using a pick-and-place apparatus.
