Abstract
Abstract A sandwich type composite adhesive construction in a simpler form, composed of a central release liner having a permanent adhesive layer on one side thereof and a pressure sensitive adhesive layer on the other side preferably separated therefrom by a release coat or member, and at least one release member on said adhesive layers but in a more complex form containing additional carrier layers or strengthening members including at least one or more support layers between two layers of permanent pressure sensitive adhesive. This adhesive construction provides a product, such as a pipe insulation that has unique properties and is cost effective.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 15
Claim 1
Independent Claim
126 words
An insulation construction comprising an elongated insulation member having a longitudinal slit therein to allow the insulation to be fitted on or around a shaped article by an adhesive construction positioned in said slit, said adhesive construction comprising a center liner having a first and second side with a layer of removable pressure sensitive adhesive coated on the first side of said liner and removably adhered to a first face of the slit, a layer of permanent adhesive adhered to a second face of the slit and covering a layer of release coated on the liner so as to allow the second side of the center liner to be removed and first and second face of the slit to be adhered together by said permanent adhesive.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
126 words
An insulation construction comprising an elongated insulation member having a longitudinal slit therein to allow the insulation to be fitted on or around a shaped article by an adhesive construction positioned in said slit, said adhesive construction comprising a center liner having a first and second side with a layer of removable pressure sensitive adhesive coated on the first side of said liner and removably adhered to a first face of the slit, a layer of permanent adhesive adhered to a second face of the slit and covering a layer of release coated on the liner so as to allow the second side of the center liner to be removed and first and second face of the slit to be adhered together by said permanent adhesive.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
15 words
The insulation construction of claim 1 wherein the elongated insulation member is a porous plastic.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
13 words
The insulation construction of claim 2 wherein the permanent adhesive is pressure sensitive.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
19 words
The insulation construction of claim 1 wherein the permanent adhesive layer includes at least one carrier or strengthening layer.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
16 words
The insulation construction of claim 1 wherein the elongated insulation member is a shaped fibrous material.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
43 words
The insulation construction of claim 1 wherein the removable pressure sensitive adhesive is an acrylate containing about 0.2 to about 5 parts by weight percent of a vinyl unsaturated, homopolymerizable emulsifier monomer which is a surfactant having both a hydrophobic and hydrophilic moiety.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
39 words
The adhesive coated product of claim 1 in which an adhesive is coated onto a primer which has been applied to kraft side of a jacket and dried to a film, prior to applying the permanent pressure sensitive adhesive.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
45 words
The adhesive coated product of claim 7 in which the primer contains a finely powdered silica, a polymeric acrylic or methacrylic ester, and sufficient diluent to produce a solution which can be applied to kraft side of a jacket to enhance adherence of the adhesive.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
48 words
The adhesive coated product of claim 8 in which the primer comprises from about 5% to 30% of a finely divided powdered silica, from 10% to 60% of at least one polymeric acrylic or methacrylic ester and from 10% to 85% of a solvent on a weight basis.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
141 words
An insulation construction comprising an elongated insulation member having an elongated slit having a first and second face adjacent thereto, and on opposite sides thereof, to allow the insulation to be fitted on or around a shaped article and an adhesive construction for closing said slit said adhesive construction being composed of a permanent pressure sensitive adhesive bonded to the first face adjacent the slit and contacting a release layer, said release layer being adhered to one side of a center liner having a removable pressure sensitive adhesive layer adhered to the other side of said center liner, said removable pressure sensitive layer being removably bonded to second face of the slit to hold the slit closed until the center liner is removed to allow adhesive on said first face to adhere to the second face to adhere the slit closed.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
141 words
An insulation construction comprising an elongated insulation member having an elongated slit having a first and second face adjacent thereto, and on opposite sides thereof, to allow the insulation to be fitted on or around a shaped article and an adhesive construction for closing said slit said adhesive construction being composed of a permanent pressure sensitive adhesive bonded to the first face adjacent the slit and contacting a release layer, said release layer being adhered to one side of a center liner having a removable pressure sensitive adhesive layer adhered to the other side of said center liner, said removable pressure sensitive layer being removably bonded to second face of the slit to hold the slit closed until the center liner is removed to allow adhesive on said first face to adhere to the second face to adhere the slit closed.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
24 words
The insulation construction of claim 10 wherein at least one face has a primer coat thereon when contacted with the permanent pressure sensitive adhesive.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim
144 words
An adhesive construction for an insulation member, said insulation member being covered with a jacket with each end of the jacket being folded inside a longitudinal slit to contact respectively a first and second face of the slit in said insulation member, said adhesive construction being positioned in said slit and comprising a center liner having a release coat on one side of said liner covered with a layer of a permanent pressure sensitive adhesive adhered to the jacket on one face, and other side of said center liner being covered with a layer of removable pressure sensitive adhesive, said removable pressure sensitive adhesive being adhered removably to said jacket on other face of said slit to permit the insulation member to be closed in storage mode but be installed in permanent position when the center liner and removable pressure sensitive adhesive is removed.
Claim 15
Dependent Claim
144 words
An adhesive construction for an insulation member, said insulation member being covered with a jacket with each end of the jacket being folded inside a longitudinal slit to contact respectively a first and second face of the slit in said insulation member, said adhesive construction being positioned in said slit and comprising a center liner having a release coat on one side of said liner covered with a layer of a permanent pressure sensitive adhesive adhered to the jacket on one face, and other side of said center liner being covered with a layer of removable pressure sensitive adhesive, said removable pressure sensitive adhesive being adhered removably to said jacket on other face of said slit to permit the insulation member to be closed in storage mode but be installed in permanent position when the center liner and removable pressure sensitive adhesive is removed.
