A liquid crystal composition including: a polymerizable liquid crystal compound capable of expressing birefringence with inverse wavelength dispersion; and a (meth)acrylate compound containing two or more (meth)acryloyl groups per one molecule, wherein: an amount of the (meth)acrylate compound is 8 parts by weight or less, the amount being relative to 100 parts by weight of a sum total of the polymerizable liquid crystal compound and the (meth)acrylate compound.

The present invention relates to a fast and elastic adhesive. Said adhesive includes two components, one including a monomer having an alkoxyalkyl ester group, a thickener, a thixotropic agent and a stabilizing agent. In the other component, a plasticizing agent, a thixotropic agent, and an initiating agent are included. This adhesive can be used to practically instantaneously bond substrates that can move relative to one another, or which may be bent or have the ability to absorb an impact, or to seal.

Fast light curing adhesive compositions, which include cyanoacrylate or methylidene malonate monomers or mixtures thereof, and either a photoinitiator system with a combination of specific ferrocene compounds and specific acylgermane compounds or a photoinitiator system with a specific ferrocene compound substituted with acylgermane groups. The use of that light curable adhesive composition, and a package.

Cellulose cyanoacrylate is employed to bond two surfaces, fill voids or duplicate the shape of a three-dimensional object, Two surfaces may be bonded by placing a sheet of cellulose material between the surfaces and applying cyanoacrylate glue around the edge of the sheet until saturated and allowing it to cure. Paper toweling may favorably be employed as the cellulose material. A break or fracture in an article can be overlaid with a sheet of cellulose that when saturated with cyanoacrylate glue and temporarily held in place and shaped with a releasable film, the fracture can be corrected. A dry powder comprising highly abrasion-resistant particles can be mixed with the cellulose material to enhance abrasion resistance and to improve long-term color stabilityespecially important for dental cavity treatment. To duplicate the shape of a three-dimensional object, a sheet of releasable film is placed over the object, followed by a sheet of cellulose that is then saturated with cyanoacrylate glue. A sheet of releasable film is then placed over the cellulose and used to hold the cellulose in place and shape it as it hardens.
