Methods are generally disclosed for forming and using a release sheet. To form the release sheet, a release coating is applied over a first surface of a base sheet. Generally, the release coating includes a fatty alcohol ester of acrylic acid and a curable monomer, and can also include a curable polymeric resin. Then, the release coating can be cured. In one particular embodiment, the release coating can be substantially free from siloxanes. The release sheet formed according to this method is also generally provided, along with methods of forming a casting sheet using the release sheet are also generally provided.

Durable, heat resistant, erasable release coatings, release coated substrates, and their methods of manufacture

Methods are generally disclosed for forming and using a casting paper. In one embodiment, the casting paper can be made by coating a first surface of a base sheet with a release coating such that the release coating covers the entire first surface of the base sheet. A printed release coating is then applied on a portion of the first release coating, and is dried or cured as needed to form the casting paper having a textured surface defined by elevated areas corresponding to the printed release coating and valley areas corresponding to exposed areas of the printed release coating. In another embodiment, the casting paper can be made by first printing a base sheet with a patterned, structured coating, then coating over the patterned, structured coating with a release coating such that the release coating covers at least the unprinted areas of the base sheet. The casting paper can be used to form a texturized surface in a substrate.

Casting papers and their methods of formation and use

Provided are laminated flexible packaging materials () suitable for containing a pharmaceutical, food or beverage grade product. The laminated flexible packaging material includes a layer of flexible packaging material () bound to at least one other layer of flexible packaging material () by a radiation-cured laminating adhesive composition () formulated from a radiation-curable laminating adhesive containing at least 50% of one or more radiation-curable, carboxylic acid functional monomers and 0.1 to 20% of an organic titanate compound. Also provided is a radiation-curable laminating adhesive containing at least 50% of one or more radiation-curable, carboxylic acid functional monomers and 0.1 to 20% of an organic titanate compound.

Radiation-cured, laminated flexible packaging material and radiation-curable, adhesive composition

A metal conductor is provided with a cured coating of about 2.5 &#x3bc;m to about 500 &#x3bc;m thickness, which cured coating has a dielectric dissipation factor (60 Hz, 24&#xb0; C.) of lower than about 0.05 and is a radiation-cured coating formulated from components comprising: a) an acrylate functional urethane oligomer having a hydrocarbon backbone; b) one or more mono- or polyfunctional diluents; and optionally, c) one or more light sensitive radical generating compounds. The invention further provides a radiation-curable coating composition for coating a metal conductor. Also disclosed is a method of making a metal conductor provided with a cured coating of about 2.5 &#x3bc;m to about 500 &#x3bc;m thickness, which cured coating has a dielectric dissipation factor (60 Hz, 24&#xb0; C.) of lower than about 0.05.

Dielectric, radiation-curable coating compositions

Provided are radiation-cured, laminated materials, radiation-curable adhesive compositions suitable for use in forming the laminated materials, and methods of making laminated materials. The radiation-curable composition includes the use of a cycloaliphatic carboxylic acid functional monomer

Radiation curable laminating adhesives based on cycloaliphatic carboxylic acid functional monomers

Radiation-cured, laminated flexible packaging material

Provided is a laminate label adapted for use on plastic containers suitable for containing a pharmaceutical or food grade product. The laminate label includes a substantially clear or translucent protective polymeric layer bound to a face stock by a radiation-cured adhesive composition formulated from a low-migration, radiation-curable adhesive composition containing at least 50% of one or more radiation-curable, carboxylic acid functional monomers.

Optical fiber coatings are disclosed having excellent ribbon stripping and adhesion behavior. The coatings are radiation-curable. The excellent stripping and adhesion behavior can be achieved by several means which include by use of additives, by use of radiation-curable oligomers having higher molecular weight, or by use of coatings having certain thermal properties. Combination of means can be employed. Stripping behavior can be measured by crack propagation and fiber friction measurements.
