Provided is a PSA sheet with which good air release properties can be obtained while whose quality can be further enhanced. This invention provides a PSA sheet comprising a substrate film and a PSA layer provided to at least one face of the substrate film. The PSA sheet further comprises a coating layer partially covering the PSA layer surface. The PSA sheet's adhesive is formed of the PSA layer and the coating layer. The coating layer has a linearly extending part running from one edge to another edge of the adhesive face. The linearly extending part has a first face forming the PSA sheet's adhesive face and a second face located on the PSA layer side relative to the first face. The second face of the linearly extending part forms an overall gently curved line in a cross section perpendicularly intersecting the length direction of the linearly extending part.

A double-sided adhesive tape having a heat-activatable adhesive layer protected with an interliner, in order to allow such tapes to be guided stably over cutting and winding units and also to be stably stored and transported, has a composite system comprising: an adhesive tape (A) comprising: a pressure sensitive adhesive layer, and a heat-activatable adhesive layer; a release liner situated on the pressure sensitive adhesive layer of the tape (A); and an adhesive tape (B) comprising: a carrier layer, a release layer on one side of the carrier layer, and a pressure sensitive adhesive layer on the side of the carrier layer opposite the release layer and in direct contact with the heat-activatable adhesive layer of tape (A).

Also disclosed is a method for producing a composite system of this kind, and the specific use of the tape (B).

The invention relates to a separating film based on polyolefins or ethylene copolymers with a content of organic and optionally inorganic pigment and at least one UV stabilizer. The separating film has a transmission percentage between 5 and 20% in the range from 400 to 700 nm and a transmission percentage of <2% in the range from 300 to 500 nm. Such separating films have the advantage that marking regions applied onto membranes which can be found below the separating film remain detectable, and adhesives which can be found below the separating film are effectively protected from UV light and premature aging by the addition of inorganic and organic pigments and UV stabilizers. The invention further relates to composite structures of corresponding separating films and adhesives, to water-tight membranes with coatings made of adhesive and separating films, and to uses of corresponding membranes for sealing structures against water.

An object of the present invention is to provide a urethane adhesive composition having excellent initial adhesiveness and excellent adhesion durability. The present invention is a urethane adhesive composition containing a urethane prepolymer (A) having an isocyanate group, an isocyanate compound (B) having an isocyanurate structure and an isocyanate group, and an adduct of a compound represented by Formula (X) below (in Formula (X), R.sup.11 and R.sup.12 each independently represent a hydrocarbon group) and a phenol compound.
