The invention provides pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) coated articles, including tapes and transfer coatings, having microstructured surfaces and methods of making pressure-sensitive adhesive articles bearing such microstructured surfaces. The performance properties of the pressure-sensitive adhesive articles can be tailored by independently varying the microstructure and the rheological properties of the pressure-sensitive adhesive.

A invenção fornece o adesivo pressure-sensitive (PSA) revestiu artigos, including fitas adesivas e revestimentos de transferência, tendo microstructured superfícies e os métodos de fazer os artigos adesivos pressure-sensitive que carregam tais microstructured superfícies. As propriedades do desempenho dos artigos adesivos pressure-sensitive podem ser costuradas independentemente variando o microstructure e as propriedades rheological do adesivo pressure-sensitive.
