The present invention relates to an adhesive tape comprising at least one carrier that has a thickness of 20 to 250 μm, preferably 50 to 150 μm, and has at least one layer (i) based on preferably uncrosslinked thermoplastic polyurethane that has been produced by means of extrusion, wherein the polyurethane is based on aromatic polyisocyanate, such as aromatic diisocyanate in particular, or (ii) based on preferably uncrosslinked polyurethane that has been produced from a dispersion, wherein a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is disposed on at least one side, preferably both sides, of the carrier. The invention also relates to processes for producing the adhesive tape and to the use thereof for bonding of components in electrical, electronic, optical or precision mechanical devices, such as, in particular, of windows or lenses in housings of precision mechanical, optical and/or electronic devices.

A sanitary covering is retrofit over an existing handle or railing, particularly a shopping cart handle A stability-enhancing element in the form of compression foam is adhesively secured to an existing handle. A metal cover, such as of anodized aluminum, with a pathogen-eliminating outer surface (such as a biocidal or antimicrobial coating), jackets the compression foam. The cover may be in two parts having elements interlocking them together so as to be securely attached together and securely engage the compression foam. A method of retrofitting a sanitary covering over an existing handle or rail is also provided utilizing a stability-enhancing element and a metal cover with a biocidal or antimicrobial outer coating.

Surface protection systems, methods of forming, and methods of applying are described. A surface protection system includes a damage resistant polymer film having a major surface and an adhesive deposited on the major surface of the damage resistant polymer film. The damage resistant polymer film has a thickness of about 8 mils to about 20 mils.

An impact-resistant film comprises at least one layer of an elastomeric polymer material and an adhesive layer.

A heat-debondable adhesive article having two opposing sides is provided that includes a shape-memory polymer sheet in its temporary strained shape that includes a plurality of slits therein and a first adhesive on one opposing side of the polymer sheet and a second adhesive on the other opposing side of the polymer sheet. The provided article, optionally, includes a first substrate in contact with the first adhesive and a second substrate in contact with the second adhesive. The article can be debonded by heating the article to a temperature equal to or greater than a transition temperature for the shape-memory polymer sheet.

Examples of computing devices including a processor, memory, and a display device housed within the same enclosure are described. In examples, the display device, which may include a cover glass, may be attached to the enclosure using a multilayer adhesive member, the multilayer adhesive including a first adhesive layer and a second adhesive layer disposed on opposite sides of a foam layer. The first and/or second adhesive layers may include two or more layers of a pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA), which may be separated using one or more adhesive carrier films. In examples, the first and/or second adhesive layers may include a low tack (e.g. removable) PSA for adhering to surfaces of the display and enclosure and for facilitation removal and re-workability of the adhesive joint.

Intermediate laminates and articles comprising a low adhesion backsize coating are described. The laminate comprises a substrate having a major surface and opposing surface and a coating comprising a block copolymer disposed on a major surface of the substrate wherein the block copolymer comprises a polyorganosiloxane block and a polyolefin block, the polyolefin block having a melt point of at least 110° C. Also described are medical dressings comprising such laminate.

The present invention relates to a pressure-sensitive adhesive composition including a polymer of a monomer mixture containing isobornyl (meth)acrylate, a pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet, and a semiconductor wafer backgrinding method. In the present invention, by using isobornyl (meth)acrylate which is a hard-type monomer and has a low hydrophilic property, a pressure-sensitive adhesive composition having superior releasing and re-releasing properties and wettability with respect to the wafer, and having an excellent wafer-proofing property; a pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet prepared by using the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition; and a backgrinding method using the pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet can be provided.

A method for increasing the adhesion between the first surface of a first web-type material and a first surface of a second web-type material, the first web-type material and the second web-type material being supplied to a lamination nip continuously and with the same direction of the web. In said nip, the first surface of the first web-type material and of the second web-type material are laminated together and both first surfaces are treated with a plasma over the whole surface. The lamination nip is formed by a pressure roller and a counter-pressure roller and at least one of the surfaces of the rollers or both are equipped with a dielectric. The first web-type material comprises an adhesive compound layer arranged in the first web-type material such as to form the first surface of the first web-type material.
