US Patent:

6339111, Jan 15, 2002

Filed:

Oct 4, 1993

Appl. No.:

08/131037

Inventors:

John D. Moon - Hastings MN
Louise A. Ziegler - Minneapolis MN
George F. Vesley - Hudson WI
Robert C. Mehner - Oakdale MN
Mark S. Edberg - Centerville MN
Robert D. Anderson - St. Paul MN

Assignee:

3M Innovative Properties Company - St. Paul MN

International Classification:

C08F 246

US Classification:

522 4

Abstract:

Disclosed is a novel, multi-stage irradiation process for the production of an acrylic-based adhesive or pressure-sensitive adhesive tape. The first irradiation step or stage employs electromagnetic radiation at a relatively low average intensity (i. e. , 0. 1 to 20 mW/cm ) and the subsequent step employs electromagnetic radiation at a relatively higher average intensity (i. e. , greater than 20 mW/cm. ) Also disclosed are acrylic-based psa tape materials made by the novel process.

Appl. No.:

10/295072

Inventors:

Dennis Christ - Scandia MN, US
Tom Kretovics - New Richmond WI, US
Shaun McCracken - Cottage Grove MN, US
John Moon - Hastings MN, US

Assignee:

3M Innovative Properties Company

International Classification:

B05D005/10

US Classification:

427/508000, 427/207100

Abstract:

A process for making a fibered composition, including providing a coatable composition with a polymerizable adhesive composition and inorganic fibers, polymerizing the coatable composition to produce a fibered bulk polymer, and hot melt coating the fibered bulk polymer onto a first substrate to form a dispensable fibered adhesive layer. The fibers in the adhesive layer preferably have a mean fiber length of about 10 mils (0.25 mm) to about 60 mils (1.50 mm) and a range of fiber lengths from about 1 mil (0.025 mm) to about 100 mils (2.50 mm).

Appl. No.:

7/036589

Inventors:

William J. Traynor - Cottage Grove MN
Cheryl L. Moore - Afton MN
Michael K. Martin - Woodbury MN
John D. Moon - Hastings MN

Assignee:

Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Company - St. Paul MN

International Classification:

B32B 702
B32B 710
C08L 5106

US Classification:

428213

Abstract:

A pressure-sensitive adhesive that has high cohesive strength and adheres permanently to high-solids automotive paint systems preferably comprises a mixture of (1) a crosslinked acrylic copolymer of acrylic acid ester and N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone, and (2) certain tackifier resins. Useful tackifier resins are poly(isobornylmethacrylate), pentaerythritol ester of rosin, and mixed-aliphatic/aromatic polymeric tackifier resins such as a t-butylated styrene. The tackifier resin preferably has a T. sub. g of at least 30. degree. C. , M. sub. n from 300 to 3000, and a solubility parameter from 8 to 9. The novel pressure-sensitive adhesive is particularly useful as a dense surface layer of a composite tape having a foamlike core.

US Classification:

428 40

Abstract:

Pressure-sensitive adhesive tape, the adhesive layer of which is produced from a mixture of (1) a pressure-sensitive adhesive alkyl acrylate polymer and (b) a polynuclear-chromophore-substituted halomethyl-s-triazine such as ##STR1## which has been exposed to ultraviolet radiation to cause the polymer to become crosslinked.
