Pre-applied materials are also described.
1. An article comprising a transferable curable non-liquid film on a release substrate, the film being formed from a composition comprising at least one reactive monomer which is an electron deficient olefin component and a film forming component.
2. An article according to claim 1 wherein the non-liquid film comprises at least one electron deficient olefin component selected from the group consisting of cyanoacrylic esters, methylidene malonate esters, cyanopentadionate esters and combinations thereof.
3. An article according to claim 1 wherein the non-liquid film comprises at least one electron deficient olefin component selected from the group consisting of:
an electron deficient olefin component comprising an ester component selected from the group consisting of propargyl, neopentyl, and adamantyl;
a di ester; and combinations thereof.
4. An article according to claim 1 wherein the electron deficient olefin component comprises a cyanoacrylate.
5. An article according to claim 1 wherein the electron deficient olefin component comprises propargyl, neopentyl, or adamantyl cyanoacrylate or di cyanoacrylate and combinations thereof.
6. An article according to claim 1 wherein the non-liquid film comprises at least one electron deficient olefin component which is itself non-liquid.
7. An article according to claim 1 wherein the non-liquid film comprises at least one electron deficient olefin component which is itself liquid in combination with at least one other film forming component, wherein the combination is non-liquid.
8. An article according to claim 1 wherein the non-liquid film comprises at least one electron deficient olefin component which is itself non-liquid, at least one electron deficient olefin component which is itself liquid and at least one film forming component, wherein the combination is non-liquid.
9. An article according to claim 1 wherein the release substrate is flexible.
10. An article according to claim 1 wherein the article has two opposing sides and each side is provided with curable product, wherein the curable product on at least one side comprises a curable non-liquid film, the film being formed from a composition comprising at least one reactive monomer which is an electron deficient olefin component and a film forming component.
11. An article according to claim 10 wherein each side is provided with curable product, wherein the curable product on both sides comprises a curable non-liquid film, the film being formed from a composition comprising at least one reactive monomer which is an electron deficient olefin component and a film forming component.
12. An article according to claim 1 wherein the electron deficient olefin comprises a solid cyanoacrylate selected from neopentyl or propargyl cyanoacrylate.
13. An article according to claim 1 wherein the film is formed from a composition comprising non-liquid cyanoacrylate, a liquid cyanoacrylate and a film forming component.
14. An article according to claim 13 wherein the film forming component comprises an ethylene acrylic elastomer.
15. An article according to claim 1 , wherein the film forming component is selected from ethylene acrylic elastomers, natural or synthetic rubbers, substituted polyethylenes, polyvinyl butyral resins and chlorosulfonated polyethylene synthetic rubbers.
16. A process for forming the article of claim 1 comprising a transferable curable non-liquid film on a release substrate comprising the steps of:
depositing a liquid form of a composition comprising at least one reactive monomer which is an electron deficient olefin component and a film forming component onto the release substrate; and
forming a non-liquid film from the deposited material.
17. An article comprising a curable non-liquid film on a substrate, the film being formed from a composition comprising at least one reactive monomer which is an electron deficient olefin component and a film forming component and the substrate being a foam material.
18. An article according to claim 17 , wherein the film forming component is selected from ethylene acrylic elastomers, natural or synthetic rubbers, substituted polyethylenes, polyvinyl butyral resins and chlorosulfonated polyethylene synthetic rubbers.
19. A heat activatable permanent or release substrate comprising a curable non-liquid film on a substrate, the film being formed by a composition comprising at least one reactive monomer which is an electron deficient olefin component and a film forming component, the electron deficient olefin component being non liquid.
20. An article according to claim 19 , wherein the film forming component is selected from ethylene acrylic elastomers, natural or synthetic rubbers, substituted polyethylenes, polyvinyl butyral resins and chlorosulfonated polyethylene synthetic rubbers.
