Spencer Silver, a chemist who accidentally invented the delicate adhesive used in Post-it Notes, an innovation that blanketed the office landscape like a blizzard with messages and reminders and became a favored modern medium for jotting notes to oneself and others, died May 8 at his home in St. Paul, Minn. He was 80.
Dr. Silver’s death was announced by 3M — maker of products including Scotch tape — where he had worked for nearly three decades.
