An adhesive composition is provided that includes a block copolymer present at greater than or equal to 30 total weight percent of the adhesive system comprising a high glass transition temperature in subunits Y and Y, each of the subunits Y and Y having a high glass transition temperature of from 70 C. to 130 C. with a low glass transition temperature subunit Z having a low glass transition temperature of from 100 C. to 10 C. intermediate between said high glass transition temperature acrylate subunits to define a structure Y-Z-Y. The triblock copolymer is dissolved in a monomer curable under free radical. A free radical initiator of a peroxide or a hydroperoxide are present in combination with a sulfonyl chloride, dihydropyridine and copper or vanadium salt. By heating the cured adhesive at or above 70 C., the adhesive is amenable to being removed, repaired, or reworked.

Bonding dissimilar materials of medical device components can be carried out by applying an adhesive on at least one surface of two components which are composed of dissimilar materials and contacting the surfaces and exposing the contacted surfaces to heat and/or irradiate the adhesive to cure the adhesive and bond the surfaces. One medical component, e.g., medical tubing, can be composed of a non-polar, polyvinyl chloride free thermoplastic polymeric material and the other medical component, e.g., a medical connector, can be composed of polyacrylate, polyacrylonitrile, acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS), methyl methacrylate-acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (mABS), polyester, and/or a polycarbonate material. The adhesive formulation can include: (a) a polyolefin oligomer having reactive acrylate groups and alkenyl groups, (b) an initiator, and optionally (c) a solvent.

One embodiment of the present invention relates to a laminate or a method for manufacturing a laminate, the laminate includes a layer (A) including at least one resin selected from the group consisting of a fluororesin, LCP, an ABS-based resin, and a polyketone-based resin and an adhesive layer (B) including an adhesive composition, at least a part of the adhesive layer (B) is in contact with the layer (A), the adhesive composition contains a graft-modified product of at least one base polymer selected from polyolefins by a carbodiimide monomer having a carbodiimide group and a polymerizable double bond and contains 0.1 to 50 mmol of the carbodiimide group per 100 g of the adhesive composition, and the density of the adhesive composition is 0.870 to 0.940 g/cm.sup.3.

The present disclosure provides adhesive mounting articles that can be removed from surfaces without damage by having reduced contribution of a hardgood to the peel force generated by the adhesive article during removal. In some instances, this can be accomplished by a hardgood that is flexible in a peel direction and rigid in a weight hanging direction. Such hardgoods may include a plurality of minimally connected body segments arranged about the transverse axis of the hardgood body.
