Separating film, comprising at least one layer(s) having a foamed structure of at least one thermoplastic polymer, at least one of the surfaces of the separating film being provided with a release layer (b) of at least one cured polysiloxane as an outer layer, the use thereof as a detachable protective and covering film, and roofing membrane provided with the separating film as a detachable protective and covering film.

An underlayment for supplementing one or more physical properties of wall, ceiling, and floor construction components is used to in a wall, ceiling, or floor assembly that may be fabricated on site. The assembly includes: first and second wall, ceiling, or floor construction components which each have physical properties and an underlayment component which has at least one supplemental physical property for supplementing the physical properties of the first and second construction components. The construction components may or may not be secured together with the underlayment sandwiched between the second and first construction components to form a wall, ceiling, or floor assembly with the supplemental physical property or properties of the underlayment. The supplemental physical property or properties of the underlayment may include, but are not limited to, latent storage of thermal energy, sound transmission reduction, and/or burn through resistance.

A building material comprising a substrate layer and a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, where the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer includes expandable graphite.

A building material comprising a substrate layer and a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, where the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer includes expandable graphite.

A protective film includes an adhesive material configured for dry application to a surface that is to be protected, such as the surface of an electronic device. An installation assembly that includes the protective film is configured to minimize or eliminate contact with the protective film as it is applied to the surface that is to be protected. Methods for manufacturing a protective film and an installation assembly that includes the protective film may be effected in contaminant-free conditions. Methods for applying the protective film are also disclosed, as are devices (e.g., electronic devices, etc.) with at least one surface covered with a protective film.

A product, generally in sheet form, allowing adjustment in positioning on installation and subsequent removal, including a layer comprising crumb-rubber material, and having a first side and a second side. A coating of a low-grab pressure sensitive adhesive is applied directly to at least part of the exposed surface of the crumb-rubber material. The adhesive is determined to be a low-grab adhesive if, after 24 hours adhesive binding dwell-time, a 90 peel adhesion at 300 mm/minute, as measured by FINAT Test Method No. 2, of between 1.77 and 3.96 Newtons/25 mm width at room temperature (23 C.1 C.) and at a relative humidity of 50%5%.
