Rotatable Self-Laminating Markers
20190366700 · 2019-12-05 ·

A rotatable self-lam for attachment to an elongate object can be made by variations to conventional self-lams. In some forms, the rotatable self-lam can be made by folding a portion of the head end of the self-lam onto itself to provide an adhesive-free length which is first wrapped around the elongate object during marker application. In other forms, a bifurcated release liner can have a portion proximate the head end of the marker which can be removed to help template or accommodate the fold to create the adhesive-free length or can have a portion proximate the head end which is retained when the portion proximate the tail end is removed such that the retained portion of the release liner provides an adhesive-free surface during application.

Label sheet design for easy removal of labels

A label sheet (1) having a release liner (16) and a column of labels (12) releasably adhered thereto is modified to allow easy removal of the labels. The liner has a weakened separation line (30) formed by cuts and ties running underneath a column of labels near the edge of the labels, and notches (18) at the top and bottom of the sheet aligned with the cuts and ties. A matrix (14) surrounding the labels, if present, also has cuts and ties, with the cuts and ties in the matrix parallel to and slightly offset from the cuts and ties in the liner. The separation lines are strong enough that the label sheet can be fed through a printer, yet weak enough that a user can tear off the liner and matrix along the separation lines, thus leaving a minor edge of a column of labels exposed for easy removal from the label sheet.

SWITCHABLE DECOR
20190191838 · 2019-06-27 ·

An apparatus comprises an article including a non-flat or non-rigid surface, a decorative sheet member and a fixation sheet member. The decorative sheet member has a first side and a second side, neither of the first and second sides having an adhesive. The fixation sheet member has a third side configured to be attached to the outer surface of the article, the third side including a permanent bonding agent with a first adhesion characteristic, and a fourth side, opposite the third side and configured to receive one of the first and second sides of the decorative sheet, the fourth side having a repositionable material with a second adhesion characteristic, the second adhesion characteristic being less permanent than the first adhesion characteristic.

RELEASE-LINERED PRESSURE-SENSITIVE ADHESIVE SHEET

Provided is a PSA sheet capable of providing greater air release properties. The present invention provides a release-linered PSA sheet comprising a PSA sheet and a release liner covering an adhesive face of the PSA sheet. The PSA sheet has a coating layer that partially forms the adhesive face. The release liner has an arithmetic average roughness of 0.1 m or greater on the PSA sheet side surface.

Process for forming transfer film

A process includes forming a transfer film without a release layer in which the transfer film includes a substrate layer to be peeled off during a transfer process, and a transfer layer to be transferred to an article to be decorated. The transfer layer has a protective layer, a printed or vapor-deposited decorative layer, and an adhering layer, which are laminated in this order. The substrate layer is a base film of a synthetic resin formed by extruding a molten synthetic resin. The substrate layer is so laminated and thermally compressed in direct contact with the protective layer such that the substrate layer does not peel off the protective layer before the transfer process and peels off the protective layer from a peeled end portion of the substrate layer as a trigger during the transfer process, by thermally pressing the substrate layer and the protective layer between rolls.

Inner Seal With A Sub Tab Layer
20190092520 · 2019-03-28 ·

A pull-tab sealing member for a container containing an upper laminate forming a pull-tab bonded to a lower laminate capable of being heat sealed to a container's mouth or opening. The upper laminate defines the pull tab wholly within a perimeter or circumference of the seal. The sealing member further includes a sub tab layer or member under the gripping tab for concentric structural support.

Decorative panel for exterior use, and method for manufacturing same
10195830 · 2019-02-05 · ·

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a decorative panel which, while having weather resistance, exhibits an excellent gloss-matte effect through relative gloss differences, and can present tone gradations in surface gloss areas. A decorative panel has at least a surface coat layer, and a surface printing layer that is provided to part of the surface, said layers being laminated in the stated order on a heat-resistant substrate, wherein the surface coat layer is formed to a thickness of 5 m or greater from a resin composition that contains a fluororesin and a delustering agent, the gloss value of the surface printing layer (at a light incidence angle of 60) being 10 or less, and the gloss value of the surface printing layer (at a light incidence angle of 60) being higher by 10 or greater than the gloss value of the surface coat layer surface (at a light incidence angle of 60).
