Abstract

A thermally vulcanizable pressure-sensitive adhesive comprising a chemically precrosslinked, pressure-sensitively adhesive polybutadiene-polyurethane and ground sulfur, which during the heating phase remains pressure-sensitively adhesive, does not liquefy and hence in this phase, in which the vulcanization has not yet started and the curing has not yet commenced, has shear strength at least under load to moderate low, is able to transmit forces and hence to perform holding, a process for producing it, an adhesive tape comprising this pressure-sensitive adhesive, and a process for producing the adhesive tape.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A thermally vulcanizable pressure-sensitive adhesive comprising:
a chemically precrosslinked, pressure-sensitively adhesive polybutadiene-polyurethane;
epoxy resin; and
ground sulfur.

2. The thermally vulcanizable pressure-sensitive adhesive according to claim 1 , wherein the chemically precrosslinked, pressure-sensitively adhesive polybutadiene-polyurethane is a chemical reaction product of at least one meltable, pressure-sensitively adhesive, hydroxyl-functionalized polybutadiene-polyurethane prepolymer that is the chemical reaction product of at least one or more polybutadiene-polyols and/or derivates thereof.

3. The thermally vulcanizable pressure-sensitive adhesive according to claim 1 , wherein the chemically precrosslinked, pressure-sensitively adhesive polybutadiene-polyurethane is a chemical reaction product of at least one meltable, pressure-sensitively adhesive, hydroxyl-functionalized polybutadiene-polyurethane prepolymer that is the chemical reaction product of at least one or more polybutadiene-polyols and/or derivates thereof and of one or more other polyols and/or derivatives thereof.

4. The thermally vulcanizable pressure-sensitive adhesive according to claim 1 wherein the chemically precrosslinked, pressure-sensitively adhesive polybutadiene-polyurethane is a chemical reaction product of at least one meltable, pressure-sensitively adhesive, hydroxyl-functionalized polybutadiene-polyurethane prepolymer that is or comprises the chemical reaction product of
at least one polybutadiene-diol and/or polybutadiene-diol derivative, in each case having a number-averaged average functionality of between greater than 1.5 and less than or equal to 2.0, and/or
at least one polybutadiene-polyol and/or polybutadiene-polyol derivative, in each case having a number-averaged average functionality of between greater than 2.0 and less than or equal to 3.0, and
at least one chain extender having a hydroxyl-functionality of two and a molar mass of less than or equal to 300 g/mol .

5. The thermally vulcanizable pressure-sensitive adhesive according to claim 1 , wherein
the chemically precrosslinked, pressure-sensitively adhesive polybutadiene-polyurethane is a chemical reaction product of at least one meltable, pressure-sensitively adhesive, hydroxyl-functionalized polybutadiene-polyurethane prepolymer, and
a numerical fraction of hydroxyl groups introduced for forming the meltable, pressure-sensitively adhesive, hydroxyl-functionalized polybutadiene-polyurethane prepolymer and originating from at least one chain extender is between greater than or equal to 20.0% and less than or equal to 80.0%.

6. The thermally vulcanizable pressure-sensitive adhesive according to claim 1 , wherein
the chemically precrosslinked, pressure-sensitively adhesive polybutadiene-polyurethane is a chemical reaction product of at least one meltable, pressure-sensitively adhesive, hydroxyl-functionalized polybutadiene-polyurethane prepolymer, and
a numerical fraction of hydroxyl groups introduced for forming the at least one meltable, pressure-sensitively adhesive, hydroxyl-functionalized polybutadiene-polyurethane prepolymer and originating from at least one polybutadiene-polyol and/or polybutadiene-polyol derivative having a number-averaged average functionality of between greater than 2.0 and less than or equal to 3.0, is between greater than or equal to 0.0% and less than or equal to 50.0%.

7. The thermally vulcanizable pressure-sensitive adhesive according to claim 1 wherein the thermally vulcanizable pressure-sensitive adhesive is composed of the following fractions:
30.0-55.0 wt % of the chemically precrosslinked, pressure-sensitively adhesive polybutadiene-polyurethane;
0.1-15.0 wt % of the ground sulfur;
0.1-10.0 wt % of vulcanization accelerators;
1.0-20.0 wt % of the epoxy resin;
5.0-30.0 wt % of ground calcium oxide;
10.0-50.0 wt % of fillers selected from ground chalk, ground talc and/or ground kaolin; and
optionally ageing inhibitors, tackifier resins, bitumen, plasticizers, oils, and other auxiliaries and adjuvants.

8. An adhesive tape comprising the thermally vulcanizable pressure-sensitive adhesive according to claim 1 .
