Study of UV-initiated polymerization and UV crosslinking of acrylic monomers mixture for the production of solvent-free pressure-sensitive adhesive films

UV-polymerizable and UV-crosslinkable pressure-sensitive adhesive acrylic compositions are widely applied for high-quality carrier-free films, one-sided or double-sided self-adhesive tapes. Comprehensive studies of the properties of novel acrylic PSAs for carrier-free films or adhesive tapes were ca...
