“…A pressure‐sensitive adhesive (PSA) is a polymer that remains permanently tacky at room temperature and adheres to a surface with a light application of pressure . PSAs are made by co‐polymerizing a monomer with a low polymer glass transition temperature ( T g ), such as n ‐butyl acrylate (BA), with a high homopolymer T g monomer, such as methyl methacrylate (MMA).…”

Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) are safe, “green,” hydrophilic nanoparticles. CNCs are added in situ during a semibatch 2‐ethyl hexyl acrylate (EHA)/n‐butyl acrylate (BA)/methyl methacrylate (MMA) emulsion polymerization. As EHA is a more hydrophobic monomer, manipulation of the monomer feed composition allows for the evaluation of the effect of hydrophobicity on CNC distribution in the nanocomposite and ultimately on adhesive properties. The adhesive properties (loop tack, peel strength, and shear strength) of three different EHA/BA/MMA latex formulations are shown to simultaneously improve with increasing CNC loading. However, the hydrophobicity of the EHA leads to a nonuniform distribution of CNCs in the latex films. Comparison of the in situ polymerized nanocomposites to their blended counterparts is also made.

“…Although 2-octyl acrylate has also been proposed as an alternative, 153,162 its use is not widespread and therefore additional sources of acrylic monomers are also being explored. In this direction, in recent years a number of alternative monomer sources including carbohydrates, 163 terpenoids 164,165 and vegetable oils 166,167 have been proposed for the development of acrylic monomers with high biobased content. [168][169][170] Unfortunately, at the current time there is no way to produce these monomers at the scale required to completely replace petrochemical-based acrylics and therefore more work must be done to resolve this problem.…”

Pressure‐sensitive adhesives (PSAs) are essential components of a large number of commercial products. The immense range of substrates that are required to be bonded, coupled with the challenging adhesive properties that are required in many applications, requires the development of PSAs with controllable structure. In this review, the development of acrylic latexes for use in PSA applications is discussed, with a particular emphasis on how to adjust the synthetic process to control adhesive properties. Following a general introduction to PSAs, a brief overview of the fundamental rheological properties that control adhesive behavior is given. Subsequently, routes to improve PSA performance through controlling the polymerization process are described. Finally, more complex systems that involve structured latexes and multiphase hybrids are detailed. The review concludes with a summary of future challenges for the field. © 2023 Society of Industrial Chemistry.

“…[21][22][23] Compared with adhesives derived from petroleum resources, biobased PSAs have comparable performance, with vegetable-oil-based PSAs playing a leading role in the research of biobased PSAs. [24][25][26] Vegetable oil is widely used in various polymer materials, such as in the production of contemporary materials like polyester and polyurethane. [27] Vegetable-oil-based polymer materials have attracted much attention due to their advantages such as wide source of raw materials, low price, renewability, environmental friendliness, and easy modification.…”

This research attempts to fabricate a novel type of pressure‐sensitive adhesive (PSA) tape utilizing epoxidized linseed oil (ELO) as the primary component in an effort to reduce reliance on petrochemical polymers. This raw material comes from the natural renewable resources, making our tape a more environmentally friendly choice in reducing impact on the environment and alleviating resource pressure. The ester groups on ELO were subjected to hydrolysis in order to yield a combination of epoxy linseed oil fatty acids (ELFA) containing both epoxy and carboxyl groups. By controlling the temperature and catalyst conditions, the epoxy and carboxyl groups undergo a ring‐opening reaction, resulting in the self‐polymerization of the ELFA mixture and the formation of hydroxy‐functionalized polymers. These polymers were then applied as a coating on kraft paper and subsequently cut to produce PSA tapes. The tapes produced using this method exhibited a peak peel strength of 20.538 N·25mm−1. Moreover, the incorporation of glycerol ester of rosin (GEGR) served to enhance the peel strength, resulting in a higher value of 21.883 N·25mm−1. The utilization of sealing the cardboard box by our tapes also serves as validation for the immense capabilities of our tapes in practical applications.This article is protected by copyright.
