The present invention relates to a free-radically radiation-curable,
solvent-free and printable precursor of a pressure-sensitive adhesive,
the precursor comprising: (i) 30-75 wt. % of one or more
mono(meth)acrylate functional oligomer compounds at least one of said
oligomer compounds comprising at least one urethane bond, (ii) 0-15 wt %
of one or more poly(meth)acrylate functional oligomer compounds, (iii)
5-45 wt. % of one or more monomer compounds comprising one ethylenically
unsaturated group, (iv) 0-5 wt. % of one or more monomer compounds
comprising two or more ethylenically unsaturated groups, and (v) an
effective amount of one or more free radical photoinitiators, wherein the
percentages which are percentages by weight with respect to the mass of
the precursor, are selected so that the precursor has a dynamic viscosity
at 20.degree. C. and at a shear rate of 100 s.sup.-1 of between 300 to
15,000 mPas.
