Removable flooring, which can be peeled from a flooring substrate is prepared by applying to an adhesive layer attached to the surface of a flooring substrate a particulate material followed by application of a cross-linkable or curable polymer composition, or by applying to the adhesive layer a slurry comprising the particulate material and the cross-linkable or curable polymer composition. The cross-linkable or curable polymer composition surrounds the particulate material and adheres to the adhesive layer to provide, upon cure, a coherent, flooring layer comprising the adhesive, particular material and cured polymer which can be peeled from the underlying flooring substrate as a single substrate.

The invention relates to an adhesive film strip comprising at least two, particularly three, layers, which adhesive film strip can be detached without residues and nondestructively by expansive stretching substantially in the adhesion plane, with a carrier on which a first external adhesive compound layer is present on at least one side, wherein • the adhesive compound layer consists of adhesive compound formed on the basis of vinyl aromatic block copolymers and adhesive resins, wherein at least 75% of the resin (relative to the overall resin content) is selected with a DACP (diacetone alcohol cloud point) of greater than −20° C., preferably greater than 0° C., and • the carrier has at least one layer consisting of a polyurethane with an elongation at break of at least 100% and a restoring power of more than 50%. A nonpolar hydrocarbon resin or a polyterpene resin is particularly used as the tackifier for the adhesive compound(s).

Multilayer graphics products are described. The graphics products include a polyvinyl chloride film layer, an adhesive layer on one face of the film layer, and a polyurethane layer on another oppositely directed face of the film layer. Also described are methods of producing the multilayer graphics products.

The invention relates to a packaging article for use in form-fill-seal, flow wrap and lidding. In particular, the invention concerns such an article sealed with a biodegradable film having a peel sealable coating thereon, and coated filmic lids for sealing polylactic acid (PLA) trays and specifically PLA trays used for packaging.

A linerless label roll of repositionable labels adapted to be printed in varying lengths comprising a web of thermally printable paper wound along a running axis and having a continuous length of adhesive on one side of the web so that when a length of the web is caused to be thermally printed it will have an adhesive on the reverse side thereof that extends in a uninterrupted manner along the entire length of the thermally printed web.

A pressure-sensitive adhesive material including a visco-elastic layer and an elastic layer is provided. In some embodiments, a reusable pressure-sensitive adhesive material exhibiting high adhesive strength after repeated cycles of adhesion and detachment is provided. In some embodiments, methods of making a pressure sensitive adhesive material are provided.
