A newly synthesized PCD-PPG block copolyether polyol can be applied to coating applications that require flexibility, in solvent-free urethane compositions that require low viscosity, and in various other CASE applications.
A new polyol (PCD-b-PPG) has been synthesized that has a low viscosity of around 800-3,000 mPa·s (at 25˚C, liquid state) and is transparent due to the use of PCD as an initiator, even after storing for a long duration. The new PCD-b-PPG polyol can be applied to coating applications where transparency is required. In addition, it may contribute to other CASE applications and solvent-free urethane compositions that can take advantage of its low viscosity.
DELO has developed DELO PHOTOBOND UV acrylates for optoelectronics that reportedly enable fast and true-color bonding of holographic films manufactured by Covestro.
The FLEXcon® L-59FR series flame-retardant adhesive portfolio, featuring a self-extinguishing, non-halogenated flame-retardant adhesive, has been expanded to include both 2 mil and 4 mil adhesive coat weights as either a transfer tape or coated film.
In a clinical study that lasted several months, the effectiveness of antimicrobial-treated surfaces against hospital pathogens was examined under real-life conditions at the University Hospital Basel in Switzerland. The research team confirmed that a treated adhesive film has 98% effectiveness against microbes.
FLEXcon Co., Inc. recently announced the expansion of its FLEXcon® optiFLEX® ecoFOCUS™ line to include conformable polyethylene labeling solutions that enable recyclability of HDPE containers.
Cosmo Films Ltd. recently announced the appointment of Pankaj Poddar as group CEO to head the newly launched consumer business, ZIGLY, alongside trade verticals including Films, Labelling & Packaging, Specialty Chemicals, Ferrites, Masterbatches, and Textile Chemicals.
Selecting the optimal pressure-sensitive adhesive for each of the many different—and new—applications across the graphics market is key to helping ensure the end products’ success.
Pressure-sensitive graphic products are ubiquitous in today’s world. The market continues to grow and evolve, requiring adhesive manufacturers to constantly innovate solutions for new materials (e.g., semi-flexible olefin films) and surfaces.
