#peel force

Test Method C is designed for double-coated tapes which consist of face side and liner side. To test adherence of the face side, the face side of the tape is down and applied to a stainless steel panel, remove the liner and put a trip of polyester film onto the liner side. Then do the process as the test method A. Meanwhile, when testing the adherence of the liner side of the tape, put the liner side down and stick to the stainless steel, the face side is attached to a strip of polyester film.

Pressure-Sensitive Tape

Pressure-Sensitive tape is also known as PSA tape, adhesive tape, self-stick tape, sticky tape, etc. A pressure-Sensitive tape which includes duct tape, electrical tape, masking tape, packaging, double-sided tape, bandages, is an adhesive tape with pressure. The production and application of pressure-sensitive tape have nothing to do with solvents or heat.

Adhesion of Pressure-Sensitive Tape

A pressure-Sensitive adhesive coated and a backing material (such as paper, plastic film, cloth, or metal foil) can be formed a tape. Some tapes have removable release liners. Some tapes are special, which have layers of adhesives, primers, release agents, filaments, printing, etc. About concerning tape, adhesion is an important factor. It is an essential step to measure peel adhesion of the pressure-sensitive tape.
