Abstract
An adhesive label with a water-based release coating and methods for applying the water-based release coating to the adhesive label are provided. The water-based release coating is a non-silicon based formulation having a fluorochemical. The water-based release coating can be applied in a single-pass process or a double-pass process when manufacturing the adhesive label.
Claims20
An adhesive label, comprising:
- a front surface having a release coating applied to the front surface, the release coating comprising a formulation of a fluorochemical that is water miscible and includes a hydrophilic tail and a hydrophobic tail, wherein the hydrophilic tail is anchored into an underlying substrate of the adhesive label while the hydrophobic tail remains outside of the release coating;
- and
- a second surface having an adhesive applied on at least a portion of the second surface.
An adhesive label, comprising:
- a water-based release layer applied to a first side, of a substrate, the water-based release layer including a fluorochemical, wherein the fluorochemical includes a hydrophilic tail and a hydrophobic tail, wherein the hydrophilic tail is anchored into the substrate while the hydrophobic tail remains outside of the water-based release layer;
- an adhesive layer applied to at least a portion of a second side of the substrate.
An adhesive label, comprising:
- a fluorochemical formulation coated on a front surface of a substrate, wherein the fluorochemical includes a hydrophilic tail and a hydrophobic tail, wherein the hydrophilic tail is anchored into the substrate while the hydrophobic tail remains outside of a water-based release layer that includes the fluorochemical formulation;
- and
- an adhesive mixture coated on at least a portion of a second surface of the substrate.
