TITLE: ADHESION PROMOTING ADDITIVE
This application claims the benefit of U. S. Provisional Application No. 60/81 1 ,247 filed June 6, 2006, the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety.
Technical Field
The present invention relates to an improved adhesion promoting additive for use in silicone release coating compositions, and in particular, to an adhesion promoting additive having improved storage stability.
Background
Thermally curable silicone compositions are applied to substrates to facilitate in the release of adhesive materials thereon. Laminate constructions comprising a release coated polymeric film with a pressure sensitive adhesive and a sheet material that can be a label or decorative lamina are used by stripping off the release liner and affixing the lamina or label onto a surface.
The thermally curable release compositions generally comprise (a) an alkenyl substituted polysiloxane (b) a hydride functional crosslinking silicone, such as a methyl hydrogen siloxane polymer, copolymer or oligomer, (c) a hydrosilylation catalyst, such as a platinum or rhodium based catalyst, and (d) a hydrosilylation inhibitor.
Adhesion promoting additives may be added to the release composition to improve the adhesion of the release coating to polymeric films, and in particular, to polyester films. Adhesion promoters for silicone release compositions often comprise polysiloxanes. It has been found that polysiloxane adhesion promoters can be unstable, particularly when stored over relatively long periods of time or when exposed to the atmosphere over relatively shorter periods of time. The viscosity of the adhesion promoting additive can increase to levels such that the additive becomes unusable. In addition, the evolution of hydrogen gas within the sealed container may become a safety issue. Summary
The present invention provides for a release coating additive for a release coating that provides adhesion to polymeric films and that has improved storage stability.
