Tabbed transparency

Claim 2

An imaging sheet manifold comprising, in combination, a) a transparent, polymeric sheet imageable in a copying machine; b) an opaque, paper sheet underlying and in register with said transparent sheet; c) an adhesive composition interposed between and bonding said paper sheet to said transparent sheet, the peel strength of said adhesive bond being less than the tear strength of said paper.

Claim 3

An imaging sheet manifold according to Claim 1 wherein said adhesive forms a continuous bond line having a length substantially equal to the length or width of said paper sheet.

Claim 4

An imaging sheet manifold according to Claim 1 wherein said adhesive comprises an organic polymeric adhesive.

Claim 5

An imaging sheet manifold according to Claim 3 wherein said organic polymeric adhesive is selected from the group consisting of poly(vinyl acetate), natural rubber, isooctyl acrylate/acrylimide copolymer and ethylene/vinylacetate copolymer.

Claim 6

An imaging sheet manifold according to Claim 3 wherein said adhesive comprises about 46 to 51 parts by weight poly(vinylacetate), 2 to 4 parts by weight diethyleneglycol dibenzoate, 2 to 3.5 parts by weight dipropylene glycol dibenzoate and sufficient water to form an emulsion.

Claim 7

An imaging sheet manifold according to Claim 3 wherein said adhesive comprises about 167parts by weight of 60% by weight solids natural rubber latex, 8 parts by weight terpene tackifying resin, 2.8 parts by weight plasticizer, 2.3 parts by weight ammonia and sufficient water to form an emulsion.

Claim 8

An imaging sheet manifold comprising, in combination, a) a transparent, polyester sheet imageable in a copying machine; b) an opaque sheet of bond paper underlying and in register with said transparent sheet; c) an organic, polymeric adhesive composition interposed between and bonding said paper sheet to said transparent sheet along a thin, continuous bond line proximate a common edge of said sheets, the peel strength of the adhesive bond being less than the tear strength of the paper whereby the paper sheet can be peeled from the polyester sheet without leaving a visible paper residue thereon.

Claim 9

An imaging sheet manifold comprising, in combination, a) a transparent, polyester sheet imageable in a copying machine; b) an opaque sheet of bond paper underlying and in register with said transparent sheet; c) an organic, polymeric adhesive composition interposed between and bonding said paper sheet to said transparent sheet along a thin, continuous bond line proximate a common edge of said sheets, the peel strength of the adhesive bond being less than the tear strength of the paper whereby the paper sheet can be peeled from the polyester sheet without leaving a visible paper residue thereon.

Claim 10

An imaging sheet manifold according to Claim 7 wherein the peel strength of the adhesive bond is less than about 550 grams per lineal centimeter.

Claim 11

An imaging sheet manifold according to Claim 7 wherein said adhesive comprises about 167 parts by weight of 60% by weight solids natural rubber latex 8 parts by weight terpene tackifying resin, 2.8 arts by weight plasticizer, 2.3 parts by weight ammonia and sufficient water to form an emulsion.

Claim 12

An imaging sheet manifold according to Claim 7 wherein said adhesive comprises about 46 to 51 parts by weight poly(vinylacetate), 2 to 4 parts by weight diethylene glycol dibenzoate, 2 to 3.5 parts by weight dipropylene glycol dibenzoate and sufficient water to form an emulsion.
