The first source has German as its original language. Neutralisation with an “s” gets half a dozen hits, not far off 100 hits with a “z” and “adhesive neutralization”, of which some sources are no doubt translations but not all. There are US patent sources which use the term.

Roll labels are self-adhesive foil and paper signs that are supplied on a roll. Roll labels are especially suitable for an automatic transfer from the roll to the base to be decorated. They can be equipped with numbering, tabulation, continuous bar codes, folding, partial adhesive neutralization, etc. We can offer all classic print methods incl. digital-printing or supply them as neutral signs.

Following the lamination of backing sheet 50 to the adhesive-coated film 62, the laminate is subjected to an adhesive neutralization step, whereby the adhesive-containing areas on film 62 which are exposed by the preforations 52 in the backing sheet 50 are treated to render them nonadhesive. A particularly effective and efficient way to achieve this objective is to apply an adhesive-neutrailizing material to the backing sheet side of the laminate 64 so that the adhesive-neutralizing material contacts the adhesive on film 62 in the area of each perforation 52. Any material capable of neutralizing the adhesive coated on film 62 may be used for this purpose. A dry powder, however, is the preferred form for the adhesive-neutralizing material. One particularly effective adhesive-neutralizing material, which is also very low in cost, is powdered talc, A readily available inexpensive form of magnesium silicate. The talc can be easily applied to the perforations on the backing sheet by a variety of methods, such as, for example, dusting by means of impregnated pads, by rollers, by the application of controlled puffs of talc or by wipe on - wipe off techniques. Other, similar, adhesive-neutralizing materials, such as silica or pulverized charcoal, may also be employed. However, any material which could be used in the process described herein to effectively neutralize the adhesive in a pressure-sensitive laminate is contemplated for use with the present invention. Moreover, the addition of the described adhesive-neutralizing step to conventional laminating processes can be achieved with only minimal changes in production line equipment.

Adhesive Application

Hip-Mistu is featuring its "adhesivation" systems, which the company says results in a strong reduction in production costs and costs related to complex waste material. The system allows for independence from major labelstock producers in terms both of purchase volumes as well price increases suffered. The system provides an adhesive application just where required, without the need to use an adhesive neutralization system. It can be used both offline and inline.
