The present disclosure relates to an encapsulation adhesive film for a solar cell, comprising a transparent layer in contact with a cell sheet, and a first adhesive film layer in contact with the transparent layer, wherein raw materials of the first adhesive film layer comprise the following components: a resin and a colored filler with a mass ratio of 3 to 25:1, a cross-linking agent accounting for 0.1% to 5% of the total mass of the resin and the colored filler, an auxiliary cross-linking agent accounting for 0.1% to 1% of the total mass of the resin and the colored filler, a coupling agent accounting for 0.1% to 1% of the total mass of the resin and the colored filler, a light stabilizer accounting for 0.1% to 1% of the total mass of the resin and the colored filler, and a photo initiator accounting for 0.1% to 5% of the total mass of the resin and the colored filler. The present disclosure can effectively prevent a white substance from overflowing.

A waterproof membrane is described that includes a barrier layer and a functional layer. The functional layer can include a thermoplastic polymer that changes consistency under the influence of highly alkaline media, and an adhesive. The production and use of the membrane are also described. The functional layer of the membrane can be designed in the form of a film, a coating, or a nonwoven fabric. The fibers in the fabric can include a hard core that is surrounded by a polymer layer, is inert prior to coming into contact with liquid concrete and acts as a protective layer. Thus, the membrane is protected from premature aging and allows work to be performed with the seal in place. During the concreting process, i.e. when the functional layer comes into contact with liquid concrete, the polymer dissolves and thus allows the adhesive to bond to the concrete. The functional layer thus acts as an adhesive sealing compound and the seal is leakproof.

Hot melt adhesive film compositions may include a biobased ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) copolymer containing a biobased carbon content as determined by ASTM D6866 of 5% to 95%; and a melt index (I.sub.2) as determined by ASTM D1238 in the range of 1.5 g/10 min to 50 g/10 min measured with a load of 2.16 kg at 190 C. Methods may include a process for bonding a substrate to a similar or dissimilar substrate that includes applying to at least one substrate a hot melt adhesive film composition and bonding said substrate together, said hot melt adhesive film composition containing a biobased ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer.

The present disclosure provides adhesive articles that can be removed from surfaces without damage by having reduced or eliminated contribution of a core backing to peel force generated by the adhesive during removal. In some instances, this can be accomplished by a core that loses structural integrity in a direction normal to a plane defined by a major surface. In other instances, the contribution is reduced by compromising the interface between the core and a peelable adhesive layer.

The manufacturing of articles relies on the bonding of two or more components to form some forms of the articles, such as a shoe sole bonded with a shoe upper. The bonding may be achieved with an adhesive particulate that is applied to a surface of a substrate. The adhesive particulate is selectively fused to the substrate with a controlled energy source, such as a laser. The selective application of laser energy allows for specific geometric structures of adhesive particulate to be formed on the substrate. The substrate having the fused adhesive particulate is mated with another component allowing the fused adhesive particulate to bond the first substrate and the second component.

A masking film includes an adhesion layer that includes a blend of hydrogenated styrene block copolymer and low density polyethylene. The adhesion layer has an outer adhesion surface configured to contact a substrate. The outer adhesion surface has an average surface roughness Ra of between 100 nm and 350 nm, and an average spacing between peaks Sm of between 20 m and 150 m. The masking film also includes a release layer on a side of the adhesion layer opposite the outer adhesion surface.

An adhesive strain sensing pod includes at least one strain sensor, electronics for electrically sensing at least one strain signal from the at least one strain sensor, and a sensor adhesive for adhering the strain sensor to a surface of a structural element. The pod may have a protective case for protecting the strain sensor and the electronics and for transferring at least part of a force, pressing the pod against the surface, to press the strain sensor against the surface. The sensor adhesive may be a liquid adhesive contained in a fragile pouch that ruptures when the pod is forced against the surface, or may be a thermally activated adhesive film that is activated to bond the strain sensor to the surface. A protective film may protect the sensor adhesive prior to installation of the pod and is removed prior to installation of the pod on the surface.
