2. Sellotape - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sellotape

   The tape can be used to repair tears in paper, or to attach pieces of paper or cardboard together for modelling. On fragile paper surfaces the tape can only be used once, as removing it will either tear the paper or remove the top layer of rough cardboard; on smooth painted surfaces it can generally be removed without leaving any trace, though sometimes the adhesive can remain on the surface ...

3. Pressure-sensitive tape - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure-sensitive_tape

   Pressure-sensitive tape. Pressure-sensitive tape or pressure-sensitive adhesive tape (PSA tape) is an adhesive tape that will stick with application of pressure, without the need for a solvent (such as water) or heat for activation. It is known also in various countries as self-stick tape, sticky tape, or just adhesive tape and tape, as well as ...

4. Pressure-sensitive adhesive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure-sensitive_adhesive

   Pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA, self-adhesive, self-stick adhesive) is a type of nonreactive adhesive which forms a bond when pressure is applied to bond the adhesive with a surface. No solvent, water, or heat is needed to activate the adhesive. It is used in pressure-sensitive tapes, labels, glue dots, stickers, sticky note pads, automobile ...

5. Filament tape - Wikipedia

6. Cellophane - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellophane

   Cellophane is a thin, transparent sheet made of regenerated cellulose. Its low permeability to air, oils, greases, bacteria, and liquid water makes it useful for food packaging. Cellophane is highly permeable to water vapour, but may be coated with nitrocellulose lacquer to prevent this. Cellophane is also used in transparent pressure-sensitive ...

   Microscopic close-up of aluminium foil on the back of an intumescent rubber strip. Aluminium foil has a thickness less than 0.2 mm (7.9 mils); thinner gauges down to 6 micrometres (0.24 mils) are also commonly used. [8] Standard household foil is typically 0.016 mm (0.63 mils) thick, and heavy-duty household foil is typically 0.024 mm (0.94 mils)
