Abstract

Abstract Novel, improved adhesive compositions curable at ambient temperature to form adhesive bonds between opaque, impervious, substrates without external application of heat, light or other radiation. The adhesive compositions of this invention comprise one or more ethylenically unsaturated monomers, a source of free radicals, and an activator comprising an azine dye material or the reaction product of an azine dye material with a reducing agent.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim 169 words
A two part adhesive composition curable on combination at room temperature to provide a cured adhesive composition, one part of the composition being a polymerizable adhesive part comprising a source of free radicals and an ethylenically unsaturated monomer selected from the group consisting of diacrylates or dimethacrylates of mono, di, tri or tetraethylene glycol, trimethacrylates from trihydric alcohols, hydroxy and glycidyl terminated esters of acrylic and methacrylic acid and reaction products of these having two or more acrylate or methacrylate terminal groups, acrylates and methacrylates derived from epoxy resins and, mixtures of these monomers, the other part being an activator part and comprising an azine dye material which can be reacted with a reducing agent to provide a product capable of initiating curing of the first part and where said azine dye material is selected from the group consisting of: ##STR3## or mixtures of these and where said activator further includes a promoter selected from the group consisting of sulfur containing compounds, transition metal compounds and mixtures of these.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 169 words
A two part adhesive composition curable on combination at room temperature to provide a cured adhesive composition, one part of the composition being a polymerizable adhesive part comprising a source of free radicals and an ethylenically unsaturated monomer selected from the group consisting of diacrylates or dimethacrylates of mono, di, tri or tetraethylene glycol, trimethacrylates from trihydric alcohols, hydroxy and glycidyl terminated esters of acrylic and methacrylic acid and reaction products of these having two or more acrylate or methacrylate terminal groups, acrylates and methacrylates derived from epoxy resins and, mixtures of these monomers, the other part being an activator part and comprising an azine dye material which can be reacted with a reducing agent to provide a product capable of initiating curing of the first part and where said azine dye material is selected from the group consisting of: ##STR3## or mixtures of these and where said activator further includes a promoter selected from the group consisting of sulfur containing compounds, transition metal compounds and mixtures of these.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 28 words
A two part adhesive composition of claim 1 where the activator part comprises an azine dye material selected from the group consisting of: ##STR4## or mixtures of these.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 38 words
A two part adhesive composition of claim 1 where the promoter comprises a sulphur containing compound chosen from the group consisting of organic thiols, organic disulphides, organic sulfur compounds having nitrogen in their molecule or mixtures of these.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 35 words
A two part adhesive composition of claim 1 where the promoter comprises a transition metal compound chosen from the group consisting of vanadium (III) acetonyl acetonate, copper (II) acetonyl acetonate, or vanadium (IV) oxide-acetyl acetonate.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 65 words
A two part adhesive composition of claim 1 where the promoter comprises a sulphur containing compound chosen from the group consisting of organic thiols, organic disulfides, organic sulphur compounds having nitrogen in their molecules or mixtures of these and a transition metal compound chosen from the group consisting of vanadium (III) acetonyl acetonate, copper (II) acetonyl acetonate, vanadium (IV) oxide-acetyl acetonate or mixtures of these.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 19 words
A two part adhesive composition of claim 1 where said activator part also comprises a polymerizable methacrylate ester monomer.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 31 words
A two part adhesive composition of claim 6 where the polymerizable methacrylate ester monomer is chosen from the group consisting of 2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate, trimethylol propane trimethacrylate or a mixture of these.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 56 words
A two part adhesive composition of claim 1 where said monomer of the polymerizable adhesive part is chosen from the group consisting of tetraethylene glycol dimethacrylate, trimethylol propane trimethacrylate, 2-hydroxypropyl mthacrylate, glycidyl methacrylate, a diacrylate or dimethacrylate derived from an epoxy resin, a dimethacrylate derived from 2-hydroxypropyl dimethacrylate and pyromellitic acid dianhydride, or mixtures of these.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 26 words
A two part adhesive composition of claim 1 where said polymerizable adhesive part also comprises acrylic acid and a source of free radicals comprising cumene hydroperoxide.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 19 words
A two part adhesive composition of claim 1 where said polymerizable adhesive part also comprises a butadiene acrylonitrile copolymer.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 38 words
A two part adhesive composition of claim 1 where said polymerizable adhesive part includes a source of free radicals chosen from the group consisting of an organic peroxide, a hydroperoxide, a perester, a peracid or mixtures of these.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 93 words
A method of adhesively bonding two air-impervious substrates at ambient temperature which comprises the steps of (a) applying an activator part of claim 1 to a surface of one or both of the substrates, (b) allowing the applied activator part to dry, (c) applying the polymerizable adhesive part of claim 1 to one of the surfaces carrying the applied activator, (d) pressing the substrates together with the polymerizable and activator compositions in intimate contact with exclusion of air and (e) allowing polymerization of the monomer to form and adhesive bond between the surfaces.
