The present invention relates to an acoustical and thermal decoupling system (10) in a form of a polymer tape that includes a closed-cell foam layer (12) having a front side and a reverse side, a pressure sensitive adhesive (14) coated on the reverse side of the closed-cell foam layer (12), and a release liner (16) covering the pressure sensitive adhesive (14) on the reverse side of the closed-cell foam layer (12). The acoustical and thermal decoupling system (10) may be installed directly to a structural member of a building by removing the release liner (16) from the reverse side of the closed-cell foam layer (12) and pressing the reverse side of the closed-cell foam layer (12) against the structural member, allowing the pressure sensitive adhesive (14) to bond the closed-cell foam layer (12) directly to the structural member.

This spring used for a suspension device for a vehicle is provided with: a metal wire material which constitutes a spring section and which has a cover layer provided on the surface thereof; and a seat section which is subjected to a load acting on the spring section, is formed from an elastically deformable material, has a groove section into which the wire material fits, and is bonded to the wire material by an adhesive. The minimum thickness of the portion of the adhesive, which protrudes from the groove section, is greater than or equal to the thickness of an adhesion layer formed in the groove section.

This spring used for a suspension device for a vehicle is provided with: a metal wire material which constitutes a spring section and which has a cover layer provided on the surface thereof; and a seat section which is subjected to a load acting on the spring section, is formed from an elastically deformable material, and is bonded to the cover layer by an adhesive. The difference between the hardness of the seat section and the hardness of the adhesive is greater than the difference between the hardness of the adhesive and the hardness of the cover layer.

A vibration and noise damping element including a damping layer having first and second surfaces and an adhesive layer covering at least part of the first surface. The damping layer is composed of a damping layer material with a viscosity at 60? C. of 30000-500000 Pa*s containing at least one rubber component and the adhesive layer is composed of an adhesive layer material with a viscosity at 60? C. of 50000-300000 Pa*s containing at least one rubber component. The ratio of the thickness of the damping layer d1 to the adhesive layer d2 (d1/d2) is 0.6-4.0 and the sum (d1+d2) is 0.5-2.5 mm. The element shows good performance in the ball drop test at low temperatures, has good adhesion to the substrate it is applied to, provides good vibration and noise damping properties and guarantees easy separation after storage at temperatures between 30-50? C.
