“…In addition, the chains of the polymer matrix may also play a small role in this and may support this effect . The incorporated AN units are known to mediate a certain flexibility to the chains at low temperatures. , In general, this is expected to make the polymer matrix rather flexible, which could support ion transport through the medium. Above approximately 40 °C, the ionic conductivity differs only very slightly (0.3 mS cm –1 ) between the measured temperatures, which may indicate that the maximum achievable conductivity is close to this value (27.8 mS cm –1 ).…”

The growing interest in organic batteries for the sustainable storage of energy is giving rise not only to new polymeric active materials for batteries but also to new electrolyte systems. Water-based electrolytes are particularly interesting due to the sheer abundance of water on our planet and its cost-effective, sustainable, nonhazardous, and nonflammable nature. To further increase the safety of aqueous battery cells, various strategies have been pursued, of which the use of solid and gel electrolytes is one of the most prominent. Here, we present an efficient approach for a new environmentally friendly hydrogel electrolyte with high ionic conductivity (20 ± 1 mS cm −1 at room temperature) and medium ionic conductivity at low temperature (5.3 ± 0.3 mS cm −1 at −20 °C) based on commercially available monomers and a zinc salt compatible with the redox chemistry of the 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-N-oxyl radical in a semiorganic battery setup. We investigate its battery cycling behavior and compare its performance with that of a previously analyzed analog that does not contain a hydrogel.

“…Since the introduction of pressure-sensitive acrylic adhesives over half a century ago, they have been successfully applied in many fields of industry. PSAs are used in self-adhesive tapes [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10], labels [11][12][13][14][15][16][17], signs and markings, protective films [12,14,15], assembly operations [4,11,12,[18][19][20][21][22], as well as in dermal dosage systems for pharmaceutical applications [2,6,7,[10][11][12]17,[23][24][25][26][27] and biomedical electrodes [28]. Over the last 60 years or so, the development of acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesives has made tremendous progress, so much so that both manufacturers of pressure-sensitive adhesive articles and their adhesive suppliers now use sophisticated equipment and precise methods to study pressure-sensitive adhesive performance: tack, adhesion and cohesion.…”

This publication describes the influence of residue monomers in synthesized pressure-sensitive adhesives based on acrylics on their main properties—tack, peel adhesion, shear strength and shrinkage—in the form of transfer tapes used for joining wooden elements in the furniture industry. The discussed carrier-free adhesive tapes are synthesized via photo-crosslinking and photopolymerization with UV radiation of the photoreactive prepolymers sandwiched between two adhesive siliconized polyester films. The simultaneous crosslinking and polymerization processes carried out under UV lamps placed simultaneously above and below the crosslinked photoreactive polymer layer lead to the production of a carrier-free adhesive film. The preliminary target of these studies was to investigate how the intensity of UV radiation and the time of its exposure affect the viscosity of the photoreactive compositions and the content of unreacted monomers in them. Next, the influence of the crosslinking agent concentration and UV irradiation time on the content of unreacted monomers after the crosslinking process was tested. The last step of the studies was the investigation of the influence of the residue monomer concentration on the application properties of the obtained pressure-sensitive adhesive layers. The typical PSA application properties were tested on the wood samples: tack, peel adhesion, shear strength (cohesion) and shrinkage.

“…In our previous papers, we studied the water resistance of water-based acrylic PSAs, assessed from the results of the 'ice bucket test' on labels adhered to the glass, as a function of the monomer ratio used between n-BA and 2-ethylhexyl acrylate [30], and n-BA and acrylonitrile [31]. The results demonstrated that the labels were kept adhered but displayed wrinkles and local debonding at the boundaries after 24 h submerged in water.…”

The behavior of different polymerizable surfactants was investigated to improve the water-resistance of pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs) based on acrylic acid (AA) and n-butyl acrylate (n-BA). Differences in the adhesion properties were found according to the chemical structure and the critical micelle concentration of the polymerizable surfactant, especially when compared to the nonpolymerizable reference surfactant (Dowfax 2A1). The polymerizable surfactants with a branched structure resulted in more gel content and higher glass transition temperature in the adhesive. In general, the peel resistance and tack properties decreased with the use of polymerizable surfactants in the PSA formula. However, increased shear resistance was observed with respect to the PSA adhesive synthesized with the reference surfactant. Furthermore, the adhesives made with higher molecular weight polymerizable surfactants resulted in higher shear elastic modulus, shear strength, and deformation energy than the rest of the PSA adhesives. On the other hand, as expected, all the polymerizable surfactants studied contributed to the improved water resistance of the PSA compared to the reference PSA prepared with a conventional surfactant. The covalent bond formed between the polymer and the surfactant limited the migration of the surfactant towards the air-film interface thus reducing the formation of water entry pathways. The polymerizable surfactants with linear molecular structure showed the best water resistance performance.
