Self-adhesive Tape - Adhesives

Adhesives

A glue layer provides adhesion of the film to the surface on which the tape is applied.

There are rubber adhesives of natural or synthetic nature. Their close analogue is the "rubber" glue and they have the highest adhesion to a variety of surfaces. Rubber adhesives retain their adhesive properties at extremely low temperatures down to -700C, which ensures their successful use in winter conditions and different climatic zones. However, they have insufficient heat resistance when heated. Rubber adhesives are successfully used indoors, but they are not resistant to ultraviolet radiation, thus limiting their use outside the premises.

After gluing, rolls are again wound to the desired length (from 100m to 1000m), then cut according to the size of the width of the roll and pack.

Depending on the amount of deposited adhesive, the following classes of protective films are distinguish according to the value of the luminous pillingovoy adhesion on the polished steel plate:

  • Adhesive tape with low adhesion (L) is used to protect the following surfaces: acrylic sheet (PMMA), PVC sheet, ABS plastic and steel plates, anodized aluminum and other smooth, shiny surfaces.
  • Adhesive tape ML is used to protect furniture fittings, smooth aluminum, shingles, objects covered with a metal coating, surface conditioners and various home appliances.
  • Adhesive tape M is used to protect galvanized aluminum sheets, artificial marble, plastic and steel profiles.
  • Adhesive tape H is used to protect extra-rough materials, composite panels, aluminum sheets, laminates, PVC profiles, etc.
  • Adhesive tape VH is used to protect matte surfaces, profiles with sandblasted surfaces, etc.
  • Adhesive tape SH is used to protect carpet (glue on the outside) and car mats.
