Linerless label media

摘要

Linerless label media comprises a substrate, a thermally-sensitive coating, and an adhesive. The substrate has a front side and a back side opposite the front side. The thermally-sensitive coating is disposed on the front side of the substrate. The adhesive is disposed on a portion of the back side of the substrate. The adhesive may comprise emulsion polymer particles and high-aspect reinforcement particles dispersed within the emulsion polymer particles to provide a relatively high level of reinforcement per reinforcement particle. The adhesive may include a tapered surface interconnecting first and second adhesive edge surfaces which extend substantially parallel to a longitudinally-extending axis. The substrate may comprise a transparent material. The thermally-sensitive coating may comprise a clear material.

1. Linerless label media comprising:
a substrate having a front side and a back side opposite the front side; a thermally-sensitive coating disposed on the front side of the substrate; and adhesive disposed on a portion of the back side of the substrate, wherein the adhesive comprises emulsion polymer particles and reinforcement particles dispersed within the emulsion polymer particles, wherein the reinforcement particles are larger in one dimension than another and are larger than the emulsion polymer particles.
