Conformable, Heat-Resistant, Paintable Acrylic-Based Adhesive Tape And Method Of Applying To A Substrate

View page
US Patent:
6808775, Oct 26, 2004
Filed:
Oct 8, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/266310
Inventors:
David J. Drath - Dexter MI
Linda Hall - Jackson MI
Dennis K. Fisher - Brooklyn MI
Assignee:
Adco Products, Inc. - Michigan Center MI
International Classification:
B32B 900
US Classification:
428 401, 428 415, 428 417, 428343, 428354, 428355 AC
Abstract:
A conformable, heat-resistant, paintable acrylic-based pressure sensitive adhesive tape and method for adhering the tape to a substrate is provided. The tape is comprised of a solid acrylic-based carrier including an acrylic-based adhesive on both sides of the carrier, and a conformable, heat-resistant liner adhered to at least one side of the adhesive. In use, the tape is adhered on at least one side to a substrate, painted, and then exposed to elevated temperatures such as those encountered in an automotive, appliance, or other commercial paint bake process. The conformable tape can withstand temperatures up to 300Â F. and can be painted without degradation of the adhesive or liner and without a reduction of the adhesive properties of the tape.

US Patent:
6852359, Feb 8, 2005
Filed:
May 27, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/445692
Inventors:
David J. Drath - Dexter MI, US
Linda Hall - Jackson MI, US
Dennis K. Fisher - Brooklyn MI, US
Assignee:
Adco Products, Inc. - Michigan Center MI
International Classification:
B32B009/00
C09J009/00
B05D007/14
US Classification:
4272071, 427154, 4273722, 427532
Abstract:
A heat-resistant, paintable two-sided acrylic-based adhesive tape and method for adhering the tape to two substrates is provided. The tape is comprised of a solid acrylic-based carrier including an acrylic-based adhesive on both sides of the carrier. In use, the tape is adhered on one side to a first substrate, and adhered on the other side to a second substrate. The two substrates with the tape are then exposed to elevated temperatures such as those encountered in an automotive, appliance, or other commercial paint bake process. The tape can withstand temperatures up to 300 F. and can be painted without degradation of the adhesive and without a reduction of the adhesive properties of the tape.

International Classification:
A61K 9/50
US Classification:
42840224, 4284022, 424489, 424490
Abstract:
Microencapsulated delivery vehicles comprising an active agent are disclosed. In one embodiment, the microencapsulated delivery vehicles are heat delivery vehicles capable of generating heat upon activation. The microencapsulated heat delivery vehicles may be introduced into wet wipes such that, upon activation, the wet wipe solution is warmed resulting in a warm sensation on a user's skin. Any number of other active ingredients, such as cooling agents and biocides, can also be incorporated into a microencapsulated delivery vehicle.
