Self-wound self-adhesive surface covering material
First Claim
1. A self-wound roll of pressure sensitive adhesive surface covering comprising:
- (a) a laminate having two surfaces, said laminate consisting essentially of;
(i) a substrate layer having a first surface and a second surface, said substrate layer comprising a polymeric film comprising a vinyl- or vinylidene halide homopolymer or copolymer;
(ii) a first stabilizing layer adhered to said first surface of said substrate layer, said first stabilizing layer comprising a polymeric film comprising a polyolefin or a polyester; and
(iii) an optional second stabilizing layer adhered to said second surface of said substrate layer, said stabilizing layer comprising a polymeric film comprising a polyolefin or a polyester;
(b) a pressure sensitive adhesive layer on one surface of said laminate; and
(c) a release layer on the other surface of said laminate, said release layer consisting of a transparent flexible synthetic resin material having release properties with respect to said pressure sensitive adhesive layer;
wherein said self-wound roll includes a plurality of turns of said pressure sensitive adhesive surface covering such that said release layer (c) on one turn is in contact with said pressure sensitive adhesive layer (b) on an adjacent turn, said release layer after storage for 7 days at 158°
C. (c) being readily separable from said pressure sensitive adhesive layer (b).

Abstract
An improved self-wound roll of a pressure sensitive adhesive coated laminate comprising a substrate which becomes dimensionally-unstable under normal processing conditions, e.g., printing, at least one layer comprising a continuous film of a normally dimensionally stable polymer adhesively fixed to one or both sides of the substrate thereby stabilizing it during processing, a transparent flexible release layer of a resin on the outwardly facing surface of the laminate, and a layer of a modified pressure sensitive adhesive on the inwardly facing surface of the substrate. The laminate can be processed without distortion, wound into rolls, unwound and applied to a surface to be decorated without delamination or shrinkage and without distortion of printed indicia, and it ultimately can be stripped without damage to the surface.
