Abstract
Abstract method of applying a two component solid adhesive formulation to surfaces to be bonded. Each component of the formulation is applied to a surface in the form of discrete discontinuous deposits. When the sheets pass through nip rolls (24), the opposed deposits contact and are thoroughly mixed forming a continuous film of adhesive which is subsequently cured.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
149 words
A method for adhesively bonding surfaces *which includes: (a) applying to a first surface at least one component of a solventless reactive adhesive formulation as discrete discontinuous non-linear deposits in a predetermined pattern to form a coated surface; (b) applying to a second surface another component of the solventless reactive formulation as discontinuous non-linear deposits in a predetermined pattern to form a coated surface, the deposits on both the first and second surface coated in such an amount and spacing that they maintain their dimensional stability until such time that the deposits on the first surface contact the deposits on the second surface; (c) mating the coated surfaces one to the other, the deposits on the first and second surfaces intimately mixing and reacting to form a continuous homogeneous film adhesive bond between the surfaces; and (d) curing the adhesive to form a uniform continuous bond between the surfaces.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
149 words
A method for adhesively bonding surfaces *which includes: (a) applying to a first surface at least one component of a solventless reactive adhesive formulation as discrete discontinuous non-linear deposits in a predetermined pattern to form a coated surface; (b) applying to a second surface another component of the solventless reactive formulation as discontinuous non-linear deposits in a predetermined pattern to form a coated surface, the deposits on both the first and second surface coated in such an amount and spacing that they maintain their dimensional stability until such time that the deposits on the first surface contact the deposits on the second surface; (c) mating the coated surfaces one to the other, the deposits on the first and second surfaces intimately mixing and reacting to form a continuous homogeneous film adhesive bond between the surfaces; and (d) curing the adhesive to form a uniform continuous bond between the surfaces.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
29 words
The method of Claim 1 wherein the adhesive formulation is a reactive adhesive system selected from the group consisting of urethane, epoxy, acrylic and polyester resins and combinations thereof.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
18 words
The method of Claim 1 or Claim 2 wherein the adhesive formulation is a 100% solids adhesive formulation.
Claim 5
Independent Claim
24 words
The method of any one of Claims 1 to 3 which includes applying the first and second components to the surfaces at ambient temperatures.
Claim 6
Independent Claim
19 words
The method of any preceding claim wherein the discrete deposits have a width of between 60 to 400 microns.
Claim 7
Independent Claim
32 words
The method of any preceding claim which includes applying each component of the formulation to the surface in a range of between about 0.1 to 2.0 pounds per three thousand square feet.
Claim 8
Independent Claim
50 words
The method of any preceding claim wherein each of the reactive components has a viscosity in the range of between about 75-400 cps and the surfaces to which the components are applied are such that the deposits will maintain their dimensional stability until such time that the surfaces are mated.
