In accordance with the present invention, there are provided novel coupling agents which are compatible with a wide variety of adhesive formulations and which provide substantial adhesion enhancement relative to base formulations to which they are added. Invention compounds comprise at least one free-radically polymerizable group (other than acrylate) and at least one reactive moiety which forms covalent bond(s) with substrates having free hydroxyl groups on the surface thereof. Thus, invention compounds are covalently linked to adhesive formulations upon free radical cure, while at the same time providing “residual” functionality which is capable of undergoing reaction with any substrate having reactive (e.g., hydroxyl) groups in the surface thereof.
根据本发明,提供了新型耦合剂,这些耦合剂与各种胶粘剂配方兼容,并且相对于它们所添加的基础配方,提供了实质性的粘附增强。发明化合物至少包括一个自由基聚合基团(不包括
丙烯酸酯)和至少一个反应性基团,该反应性基团与表面具有自由羟基的底物形成共价键。因此,发明化合物在自由基固化时与胶粘剂配方共价连接,同时提供“残留”功能,能够与表面具有反应性(例如羟基)基团的任何底物发生反应。
