A wall covering, a method of producing it and a method of covering a wall. The wall covering comprises a planar substrate, such as a nonwoven base substrate, having a front, and a back facing opposite the front. There is a barrier layer on the back of the substrate and an adhesive layer superimposed on the barrier layer. The adhesive layer comprises a first polymer component, a second polymer component, the first polymer component being a non crosslinked polymer and said second polymer component being a crosslinked polymer exhibiting properties of superabsorbency. The adhesive exhibits when exposed to water, a strength sufficient for binding to a wall substrate and a glide resistance low enough for allowing repositioning of the wall cover by sliding the wallcover on the wall without having to lift it up over a period of time of at least 5 minutes.

Barrier adhesive compositions include at least one polyisobutylene-containing polymer and a copolymeric additive that is a polyisobutylene-polysiloxane copolymer. The polyisobutylene-polysiloxane copolymers are prepared by the reaction of a hydridosilane-functional polysiloxane and an ethylenically unsaturated polyisobutylene oligomer. Barrier film articles include the barrier adhesive compositions and a film. The barrier film articles can be used to encapsulate organic electronic devices.

A polarizing structure comprising a polarizing film, a protective film provided on at least one face of the polarizing film with an adhesive layer which is a glyoxal-based adhesive or a water based polymer adhesive such as a PVOH-based adhesive layer, and wherein at least one face of said protective film oriented towards said polarizing film further comprises an adhesion primer structure. The adhesive avoids delamination of the polarizing structure, which withstands edging processing conditions, and which also show excellent dry peel force. Other aspects of the invention relates to a method for manufacturing such a polarizing structure, and a polarized ophthalmic lens comprising such polarizing structure.

The aim is to provide an adhesive tape that effectively protects an electronic construction from permeants, especially water, and that at the same time has good gap-filling qualities. To solve this problem an adhesive tape is proposed that has in the following order:a carrier layer without barrier effect at least towards water and with a WVTR of at least 1 g/(m.sup.2*d) (38 C., 90% relative humidity, 50 m layer thickness);a layer comprising at least one getter material capable of sorbing at least water;a water barrier ply; anda layer of pressure-sensitive adhesive, where the carrier layer bears an outward-facing release layer and/or the layer of pressure-sensitive adhesive is lined with a release liner which has a release layer lying on the layer of pressure-sensitive adhesive.

The invention relates to a method for producing an adhesive tape, by: providing a tapelike textile carrier (2), applying a thickener (7) and an aqueous dispersion-based adhesive (8) to the textile carrier (2), and then drying the dispersion-based adhesive (8).

A barrier coating is used in combination with a UV-cured adhesive on paperstock to prolong the tack and overall performance of the adhesive. Some aspects of the coating incorporate a chelating material to arrest or completely prevent the migration of unwanted ions, possibly including calcium ions, from moving between the paperstock and the adhesive in a manner that negatively impacts the adhesive. The resulting stock is particularly well-suited to labels and other similar uses.

An adhesive tape includes a substrate [I] and an adhesive agent layer of a polyester adhesive agent provided on at least one of opposite surfaces of the substrate [I]. The substrate [I] is one selected from a polyolefin resin foam substrate, a urethane resin foam substrate, and an acrylic resin foam substrate. The polyester adhesive agent is made from a polyester adhesive agent composition [II] which contains a polyester resin (A) having a weight average molecular weight of 5,000 to 300,000, and having a structural unit derived from a polyol and a structural unit derived from a polyvalent carboxylic acid compound containing an aromatic structure-containing compound in a proportion of not greater than 80 mol %. The adhesive tape is excellent in adherence between a polyester adhesive agent layer and a polyolefin resin foam substrate, a urethane resin foam substrate, or an acrylic resin foam substrate.
