Hot melt processable adhesive compositions to mask electronic components include at least one block copolymer, at least one tackifying resin, at least one semi-crystalline polyolefin polymer, at least one plasticizer, and at least one anti-oxidant. The adhesive composition is a hot melt processable pressure sensitive adhesive composition that is thermally stable, such that the composition when disposed on a surface withstands heating to 260&#xb0; C. without degradation or flowing, remains optically transparent, and after heating to 260&#xb0; C. remains cleanly removable.

High temperature resistant masking adhesive composition

An adhesive article is described comprising a foamed adhesive layer and a non-foamed adhesive layer. The adhesive of each adhesive layer comprises a tetrahydrofurfuryl (meth)acrylate copolymer; an epoxy resin; a polyether polyol; and optionally a hydroxy-functional film-forming polymer. The adhesive may be used in structural and semi-structural bonding applications and is designed to fail cohesively.

Multilayer adhesive article

A sound and heat insulating blanket is presented comprising: a) a first layer of fabric comprising first fibers; and b) a first sound barrier film comprising a first rubber; wherein the first layer of fabric and first sound barrier film are bound together through a first interpenetrated binding layer wherein the first rubber of the first sound barrier film is interpenetrated by the first fibers of the first layer of fabric; and optionally c) a second layer of fabric comprising second fibers; wherein the second layer of fabric and first sound barrier film are bound together through a second interpenetrated binding layer wherein the first cured composition of the first sound barrier film is interpenetrated by the second fibers of the second layer of fabric. Typically, the sound and heat insulating blanket comprises no adhesive binding the first and second layers of fabric and the sound barrier film.

Sound and heat insulating blanket

There is provided a pressure sensitive adhesive foam comprising a foam comprising a non-syntactic foam blend of styrenic block copolymer and acrylic copolymer wherein the pressure-sensitive adhesive foam has an elongation of greater than 600%, wherein the non-syntactic foam blend is a hot melt formed foam. There is also provided multilayer pressure sensitive adhesive foams, pressure sensitive adhesive foam tapes and articles made using such pressure sensitive adhesive foam.

Pressure sensitive adhesive foams and articles therefrom

A curable composition is provided comprising a curable rubber comprising: a) 80.0-99.9 wt % of a chloroprene resin; b) 0.06-13 wt % of trimethyl thiourea; and c) 0.06-13 wt % of a benzothiazolesulfenamide, such as N-cyclohexyl-2-benzothiazoles-ulfenamide. The present disclosure additionally provides cured compositions comprising a rubber comprising a crosslinked chloroprene resin and a fire retardant particle system comprising: d) 5-95 wt % particulate magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)); and e) 5-95 wt % particulate aluminum trihydrate (Al(OH)). In some embodiments the particulate aluminum trihydrate (Al(OH)) has a mean particle size of greater than 30 microns and less than 400 microns, and more typically a mean particle size of greater than 82 microns. The present disclosure additionally provides sound barrier films comprising the cured compositions according to the present disclosure, in particular fire resistant sound barrier films.

An underground storm shelter comprising a bottom section, expander section and a top section bolted together to form the shelter. The base section has a closed bottom while the top section has an access hatch formed in the upper end thereof. The base section, expander section and top section are bolted together at the installation site. The walls of the base section and the top section are tapered to enable the base section and the top section to be nested during shipment. The expander section may be slipped over the top section.

Underground storm shelter

A visual indicator is provided for warning a pilot of an engine compartment fire and comprises a housing which is mounted on the cowling enclosing the engine compartment. In one form of the invention, a lens and mirror arrangement is provided for transmitting light through the housing so that the pilot will be warned of the existence of an engine compartment fire.
