STABLE, LOW CURE-TEMPERATURE SEMI-STRUCTURAL PRESSURE SENSITIVE ADHESIVE

摘要

A curable pressure sensitive adhesive having long shelf stability comprising: (1) at least one free radically polymerized polymer; (2) at least one cationically-polymerizable monomer; (3) a photo-activatable catalyst system for the cationically-polymerizable monomer comprising either at least one organometallic complex salt or at least one onium salt; and (4) optionally, a monohydric or polyhydric alcohol, wherein there is essentially no conversion of the cationically-polymerizable monomer of the curable pressure sensitive adhesive when stored in a manner to exclude actinic radiation, and methods of making the same.
