A multilayer protective tape for rotor blades of wind energy turbines is provided herein. The protective tape comprising a protective top layer comprising a polymer film, and an adhesive bottom layer. The top layer having a continuous surface (S) that is outwardly curved or outwardly trapezoidal such that the tape has a cross-sectional profile having an inner section between first and second edge lateral sections. The inner section comprises up to 30% of the width of the tape and has a thickness (Ti), while the first and second edge lateral sections have a thickness of T1 and T2, respectively, wherein Ti greater than each of T1 or T2, and the thickness (T1 or T2) of at least one edged lateral section is at most 600 μm and the thickness of the inner section (Ti) is at least 330 μm. Also provided is a method for applying the tape to rotor blades and a rotor blade protected by said protective tape.

The present disclosure provides for a repair device useful in the repair of surfaces, particularly in a healthcare environment. An exemplary form of the present comprises a repair patch, a pre-mask and release liner; the repair patch interposed between the pre-mask and release liner; the removable adhesive interposed between the pre-mask and repair patch; and the permanent adhesive interposed between the repair patch and the release liner; wherein the adhesion value of the removable adhesive is lower than that of the permanent adhesive.

In-situ polymerized polymer film facilitates improved paint film appliques with reduced defects. The paint film appliques comprise the in-situ polymerized polymer film as a carrier layer and at least one color layer assembled as a laminate, optionally further comprising at least one topcoat layer on one major surface of the laminate and an adhesive layer on the other major surface of the laminate.

The present invention provides methods and articles for achieving puncture-resistant waterproofing membranes and for waterproofing building and civil engineering surfaces without requiring the use of separate protection boards. Exemplary membranes and methods of the invention rely on relatively thin, flexible composite layers to provide impact resistance while yet facilitating seaming between adjacent installed membranes and minimizing formation of wrinkles, leakage channels, and “fish mouth” openings, particularly at substrate details or other surface irregularities.

The present disclosure relates generally to a double-sided adhesive tape having improved impact strength for a display device. More particularly, the double-sided adhesive tape includes a base layer, a foam adhesive layer formed on one surface of the base layer and made of acrylic foam, and an adhesive layer formed on the other surface of the base layer. The double-sided adhesive tape having improved impact strength for the display device having the above structure in which the foam adhesive layer having excellent impact strength is formed, thereby suppressing occurrence of cracking on a glass surface of the display device due to external impacts and exhibiting an excellent waterproofing effect.

A joint-sealing element is useful for fireproof sealing of building-structure joints, especially for fireproof sealing of a joint between a first building part and a second building part, with a carrier element and a sealing profile disposed on this carrier element, wherein the disposed sealing profile contains an intumescent material.

Anti-icing stacks for protecting an aerodynamic surface are described. In some embodiments, an anti-icing stack includes an anti-icing layer, an elastomeric erosion protection layer, and an additional layer. The erosion protection layer is disposed between the anti-icing layer and the additional layer. The additional layer has a thickness greater than the thickness of the erosion protection layer and a tensile modulus of no more than the tensile modulus of the erosion protection layer. The additional layer may be a foam adhesive layer.

A sealing for arrangement between a wall and a wall covering includes a sealing sheet and an adhesive tape. The sealing sheet and the adhesive tape each have a carrier layer of a preferably closed-cell foam plastic. Furthermore, the sealing sheet can bear a nonwoven fabric preferably on the wall-facing side, wherein border strips remain free of the nonwoven fabric for underlapping with an adhesive tape.

The present invention relates to a diecut especially for the permanent closing of holes especially in metal sheets or in plastics parts, having a carrier composed of an assembly, more particularly laminate in the specified layer sequence, of optionally at least one first layer, which is formed by a metallic layer having a thickness of 10 to 40 μm, optionally at least one second layer, which is formed by a woven glass fabric or laid glass fabric having a basis weight of 30 to 200 g/m2, optionally at least one third layer, which is formed by a first pressure-sensitive adhesive having a basis weight of 70 to 200 g/m2, at least one fourth layer, which is formed by a flame-retardant foam having a thickness of at least 0.5 to 2.5 mm, and at least one fifth layer, which is formed by a second, acrylate-based pressure-sensitive adhesive having a basis weight of 300 to 1800 g/m2, preferably 360 to 1500 g/m2 and/or a thickness of 400 to 1800 μm, preferably 800 to 1500 μm.

Provided are conformable infrared reflective wrap films, film forming compositions, methods of making, and uses of such wrap films. In preferred embodiments the conformable film comprises a polymer selected from poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC), polyurethane, polyester, and polyethylene terephthalate (PET), in particular PVC is preferred. The conformable infrared reflective wrap film is adhered to the exterior surface of a vehicle.
