US4513059A — Release coating composition

Claim 1

Independent Claim 161 words

A method for the production of pressure sensitive adhesive paper tape comprising the steps of: (a) mixing in aqueous solution a water-based film-forming polymer and a perfluorinated ester polymer, thereby forming a water-based backsize release coating composition, said composition comprising an aqueous mixture of (i) a water-based film-forming polymer and (ii) a perfluorinated ester polymer containing from about 30 to about 50 percent fluorine, said perfluorinated ester polymer being present in an amount of from about 0.5 to about 3.0 percent, dry weight of perfluorinated ester polymer per dry weight of water-based film-forming polymer; (b) impregnating a paper tape backing with a solvent-based or latex-based saturant to improve internal properties of the backing; (c) coating the backing on the backside surface with the release coating composition; (d) drying and fluxing the coated backing at a temperature of from about 250° to 300° F.; and (e) coating the backing on the side surface opposite to the backside with a pressure sensitive adhesive.

Claim 2

Independent Claim 161 words

A method for the production of pressure sensitive adhesive paper tape comprising the steps of: (a) mixing in aqueous solution a water-based film-forming polymer and a perfluorinated ester polymer, thereby forming a water-based backsize release coating composition, said composition comprising an aqueous mixture of (i) a water-based film-forming polymer and (ii) a perfluorinated ester polymer containing from about 30 to about 50 percent fluorine, said perfluorinated ester polymer being present in an amount of from about 0.5 to about 3.0 percent, dry weight of perfluorinated ester polymer per dry weight of water-based film-forming polymer; (b) impregnating a paper tape backing with a solvent-based or latex-based saturant to improve internal properties of the backing; (c) coating the backing on the backside surface with the release coating composition; (d) drying and fluxing the coated backing at a temperature of from about 250° to 300° F.; and (e) coating the backing on the side surface opposite to the backside with a pressure sensitive adhesive.

Claim 3

Dependent Claim 28 words

The method of claim 1 further comprising the step of adding a filler to the release coating composition prior to step (b) thereby providing shingling of the tape.

Claim 4

Dependent Claim 12 words

The method of claim 2 wherein the filler is clay or silica.

Claim 5

Dependent Claim 32 words

The method of claim 1 further comprising coating the backside with the release coating composition to provide a dry coating weight of from about 0.2 to about 0.4 ounce per square yard.

Claim 6

Dependent Claim 127 words

A pressure-sensitive adhesive tape comprising a paper backing having two surfaces, said paper being impregnated with an internal property improving latex or solvent-based saturant and having a coating on the backside surface of a release coating composition and a coating on the opposite surface of a pressure-sensitive adhesive, said release coating composition comprising an aqueous mixture of (a) a water-based film-forming polymer and (b) a perfluorinated ester polymer containing from about 30 to about 50 percent fluorine, said perfluorinated ester polymer being present in an amount of from about 0.5 to about 3.0 percent, dry weight of perfluorinated ester polymer per dry weight of water-based film-forming polymer, said coating composition being coated and then dried and fluxed at a temperature of about 250° to about 300° F.

Claim 7

Dependent Claim 127 words

A pressure-sensitive adhesive tape comprising a paper backing having two surfaces, said paper being impregnated with an internal property improving latex or solvent-based saturant and having a coating on the backside surface of a release coating composition and a coating on the opposite surface of a pressure-sensitive adhesive, said release coating composition comprising an aqueous mixture of (a) a water-based film-forming polymer and (b) a perfluorinated ester polymer containing from about 30 to about 50 percent fluorine, said perfluorinated ester polymer being present in an amount of from about 0.5 to about 3.0 percent, dry weight of perfluorinated ester polymer per dry weight of water-based film-forming polymer, said coating composition being coated and then dried and fluxed at a temperature of about 250° to about 300° F.

Claim 8

Dependent Claim 45 words

The pressure-sensitive adhesive tape according to claim 5 wherein said water-based film-forming polymer is selected from the group consisting of a melamine-formaldehyde composition, a vinyl acetate latex, a carboxylated vinyl acetate-ethylene terpolymer latex, a water reducible alkyd, a water reducible acrylic latex and mixtures thereof.

Claim 9

Dependent Claim 18 words

The pressure-sensitive adhesive tape according to claim 5 wherein said perfluorinated ester polymer is a perfluorinated acrylate polymer.
