The present disclosure generally relates to conformable stretch release adhesive and/or stretch-releasable, adhesive articles that are capable of attaching or adhering to a substrate and that can be removed from the substrate without causing damage to the substrate. The present disclosure also generally relates to methods of making and using such adhesive articles.

In certain embodiments, the present disclosure relates to low emissivity films and articles comprising them. Other embodiments are directed to methods of reducing emissivity in an article comprising the use of low emissivity films. In some embodiments, the low emissivity films comprise a metal layer and a pair of layers, one comprising a metal oxide such as zinc tin oxide and the other layer comprising a silicon compound, adjacent each of the two sides of the metal layer. This type of assembly may serve various purposes, including being used as a sun control film. These constructions may be used, for example, as window films on glazing units for reducing transmission of infrared radiation across the film in both directions.

The object of the present invention is to provide a decorative film excellent in moldability and tensile strength; and a method for producing a three-dimensionally molded article with a decorative film. The decorative film of the present invention is used for decorating a three-dimensionally molded article. It is a decorative film comprising at least a substrate film layer and a clear layer, wherein the clear layer is made of a fluorinated polymer comprising units based on a fluoroolefin, units based on a monomer having no crosslinkable group, which is at least one member selected from the group consisting of a vinyl ether, a vinyl ester, an allyl ether, an allyl ester and a (meth)acrylic acid ester, and units having a crosslinkable group; and the content of the units based on a fluoroolefin is from 20 to 70 mol % to all units which the fluorinated polymer comprises.

The present disclosure discloses a composite light-curing protective film and a film sticking method and use thereof. The composite light-curing protective film includes a base film layer that provides support, a light-curing functional layer to be light-cured, and an adhesive layer, and the base film layer, the light-curing functional layer, and the adhesive layer are laminated in sequence to form a sandwich structure. The composite light-curing protective film of the present disclosure is stuck to the surface of the film to be stuck, and the light-curing functional layer is cured after the light-curing treatment to form a protective film layer that completely matches the surface shape of the film to be stuck, and the sticking stability can be ensured, without the problems of bounce-back and the difficulty of sticking, and also the protective film layer will not have the problems of bounce-back and the difficulty of sticking.

The present disclosure relates to a multilayered film that may include a first PET substrate, a first anti-microbial coating overlying the first PET substrate, and a first self-wetting adhesive layer underlying the first PET substrate. The first anti-microbial coating may include a silver-based filler component within the acrylate-based component. The first anti-microbial coating may have a MRSA anti-microbial rating of at least about 75%, where the MRSA anti-microbial rating is defined as the percent reduction of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) activity from an initial inoculation of MRSA on the surface of the anti-microbial layer after 24 hours as measured using ISO22196.

The present disclosure relates to a pressure sensitive adhesive assembly suitable for bonding to a substrate provided with an uneven surface, wherein the pressure sensitive adhesive assembly comprises a polymeric foam layer comprising a polymeric base material and a particulate filler material comprising a thermoplastic material, and wherein the polymeric foam layer has a complex viscosity comprised between 2,000 Pa.Math.s to 80,000 Pa.Math.s, when measured at 120 C according to the test method described in the experimental section. The present disclosure is also directed to a method of applying a pressure sensitive adhesive assembly to a substrate provided with an uneven surface, and uses thereof.

Dual-sided adhesive articles include a first crosslinked pressure sensitive adhesive layer with a first major surface and a second major surface, a second siloxane-based pressure sensitive adhesive layer with a first major surface and a second major surface, such that the first major surface of the second siloxane-based pressure sensitive adhesive layer is in contact with the second major surface of the first crosslinked pressure sensitive adhesive layer. The articles also include a release liner having a microstructured surface with an array of microstructures, where the microstructured surface is in contact with the second major surface of the second siloxane-based pressure sensitive adhesive layer. The microstructures of the microstructured surface of the second siloxane-based pressure sensitive adhesive layer are unstable when not in contact with the microstructured release liner, and disappear over time when in contact with a substrate.

Provided herein is a flame retardant label suitable for labeling electrical devices. The disclose label includes a coating layer, a film layer, an adhesive layer, and, optionally, a liner layer. The coating layer and the adhesive layer may include flame retardants. The flame retardant label may also include channels that provide for air egress during application of the label.

A method of bonding a substrate comprising a three-dimensional printed article to another substrate, by activating the three-dimensional printed article is described, thereby facilitating bonding of the two substrates using redox curable adhesives, for example anaerobically curable adhesives.

The present disclosure relates to transparent flame-retardant coating compositions and labels including layers comprising the same. The coating composition comprises a high-hydroxyl value polymer, a crosslinker, and a flame-retardant additive comprising a phosphinate compound. The coating composition may be coated on a substrate such as a label. The coating composition forms a layer that advantageously has flame-retardant properties and is optically clear.
