Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Non-silicone, urethane-based adhesives are disclosed which are prepared by the polymerization of reactive oligomers with the general formula X-A-B-A-X, where X is an ethylenically unsaturated group B is a unit free of silicone, and A is a urethane linkage. The adhesives are optically clear, self wetting and removable. Adhesive articles, including optical adhesive articles, may be prepared using the disclosed non-silicone urethane-based adhesives.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. An adhesive comprising a cured mixture comprising: at least one X-A-B-A-X reactive oligomer, wherein X comprises an ethylenically unsaturated group, B comprises a non-silicone unit with a number average molecular weight of 5,000 grams/mole or greater comprising an oxyalkylene group, and A comprises a urethane linking group, wherein the adhesive is optically clear, self-wetting and removable. 2. The adhesive of claim 1 wherein the adhesive has a Tg of less than 20° C. 3. The adhesive of claim 1 wherein the adhesive has a Tg of less than −10° C. 4. The adhesive of claim 1 wherein the adhesive has a microstructured surface. 5. The adhesive of claim 1 wherein the cured mixture further comprises an ethylenically unsaturated material. 6. The adhesive of claim 1 further comprising an additive, wherein the additive comprises another pressure sensitive adhesive polymer, a plasticizing agent, a tackifying agent or mixture thereof. 7. The adhesive of claim 6 , comprising 5-60 weight % added pressure sensitive adhesive polymer and 5-55 weight % plasticizer.
