Abstract
The present invention provides adhesive articles that include more than one adhesive, or if one adhesive is used, include more than one adhesive portion, where, in each portion, the extent of cure of the adhesive is varied in a predetermined manner so that each adhesive portion behaves as if it were two or more different adhesives.
