| Résumé : |
American business publications abound with articles about the need to restructure corporations, to reinvent ways of doing business and to reengineer entire manufacturing processes in order to effectively compete in the global marketplace into the 21st century. Nowhere has such need for the reengineering of process technology been more crucial than in the manufacture of pressure sensitive adhesives (PSAs) and of PSA coated products, such as tapes and labels. After a decade of nearly moribund profits, of ever increasing environmental regulation and of growing competition from overseas manufacturers, the pressure sensitive products business demands more innovative approaches to manufacturing, not only to profitably prosper, but just to survive.
The ultraviolet light (UV) and electron beam (EB) curing of pressure sensitive adhesives offer alternative approaches to PSA manufacture. When compared with more historic solvent coating and thermal drying processes, and even with hot melt pressure sensitives (HMPSAs), UV/EB curing offers true pollution prevention combined with savings on energy or power consumption. UV/EB capital equipment requirements are competitive with alternative technologies. Data obtained on the compounding, coating and curing of UV/EB pressure sensitives based on low molecular weight polyisoprene illustrates these benefits. However, other UV/EB chemistries can offer similar advantages. The state-of-the-art of UV/EB PSAs can best be understood by reflecting on the morphology of pressure sensitive materials themselves. Only through insights gained from basic polymer science can commercial success ultimately be attained. |
