An adhesive article was patented. It includes a substrate with a first surface and a second surface as well as a release layer covering at least a portion of the first surface of the substrate. The release layer comprises a thermoplastic olefin-based polymer made of an acid or a base functionality. A polymeric release material comprises an acid or a base functionality wherein the functionality of the thermoplastic olefin-based polymer and the functionality of the polymeric release material form an acid-base interaction. The thermoplastic olefin-based polymer and the polymeric release material form a compatible blend. An adhesive layer covers at least a portion of the second surface of the substrate.
