An object is to provide a novel peeling method and a novel peeling apparatus. A peeling method including a first step of forming a separation layer over a substrate, a second step of forming a layer to be separated over the separation layer, a third step of forming a peeling starting point by separating part of the layer to be separated from the separation layer, and a fourth step of peeling the layer to be separated from the substrate using the peeling starting point. In the fourth step, the substrate temperature is higher than or equal to 60 degrees Celsius and lower than or equal to 90 degrees Celsius.

This application discloses a method of forming a flexible substrate using a detachment apparatus. The flexible substrate includes a debonding region, and one or more edge regions located in proximity to one or more edges of the flexible substrate. The detachment apparatus detaches the one or more edge regions of the flexible substrate from a rigid carrier that is configured to support the flexible substrate device, and detach the debonding region of the flexible substrate from the rigid carrier to which a bottom surface of the debonding region is configured to adhere. Specifically, the detachment apparatus detaches the debonding region by contacting the top surface of the flexible substrate at a plurality of suction locations located on the debonding region of the flexible substrate, and applying detachment force at the plurality of suction locations to peel the flexible substrate off the rigid carrier.

A method and apparatus for replacement of damages display shield (typically glass) covering a display screen on a device, typically a mobile phone. Mobile phones have an electronic display protected by a glass shield. Between the glass and the display is often a plastic polarizing or other intermediary sheet. Removal of a damage glass can be accomplished by cutting thru the polarizer with a moving wire or blade. This separates the glass from the sensitive display and allows replacement of the glass without damaging the more expensive display.

A flexible display motherboard and a manufacturing method thereof are provided. The flexible display motherboard includes a carrier substrate and a flexible display panel unit formed thereon. The flexible display panel unit includes a flexible base formed on the carrier substrate, and a display region and a periphery region which are positioned on the flexible base. A display device is formed in the display region, and the periphery region surrounds the display region. The flexible display panel unit further includes a dissolvable layer positioned between the carrier substrate and the flexible base. The dissolvable layer is formed at least in an area corresponding to the display region. The dissolvable layer is dissolvable in a solvent.

A method of debonding a temporarily adhesive-bonded carrier-workpiece pair employs a stream of a solvent at a high pressure. The carrier and the workpiece are bonded with an adhesive that is dissolvable in a selected solvent. The workpiece such as a device wafer may have been thinned and processed. The solvent is applied to the adhesive at a high pressure to debond and dissolve the adhesive with high throughput. The dissolved adhesive can be recycled and later reused, thus lowering the cost of the whole bonding and debonding process.

Methods for separating a plurality of diamagnetic directed self-assembled diamagnetic components are provided. One method includes, for instance: contacting a release substrate to the plurality of diamagnetic components, the plurality of diamagnetic components including a non-diamagnetic component affixed to a diamagnetic portion by a first adhesive, and removing the release substrate, the non-diamagnetic component being affixed to a final substrate by a second adhesive and the release substrate being affixed to the diamagnetic portion by a third adhesive, and wherein the removing removes the diamagnetic portion and at least a portion of the first adhesive from the non-diamagnetic component.

A dimensionally stable universal floor covering includes a tufted textile having stitches and a reinforcement layer of fibers and adhesive providing dimensional stability for the entire floor covering. The fibers and adhesive are mixed and then moved by an applicator towards the stitches. A slip path is formed to improve the movement of the fibers and adhesive. A releasable adhesive or gecko-like cover system is provided which also provides additional strength and stability and a releasable attachment of the universal floor covering to a supporting surface.

An adhesive label includes a polymeric first film layer that is nonoriented and has a significant inherent shrinkage when heated above ambient temperature. The label is useful in various labeling applications and especially adhesive labeling of reusable and recyclable containers which require removal of the label during a washing process in a warm or hot washing fluid.
