2. Ethylene-vinyl acetate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethylene-vinyl_acetate

   Hot-melt adhesives (such as hot glue sticks) and top-of-the-line soccer cleats are usually made from EVA, generally with additives like wax and resin. EVA is also used as a clinginess-enhancing additive in plastic wraps. Craft-foam sheets are made of EVA and are popularly used for children's foam stickers. [clarification needed]

3. Pressure-sensitive adhesive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure-sensitive_adhesive

   Adhesives may be broadly divided in two classes: structural and pressure-sensitive. To form a permanent bond, structural adhesives harden via processes such as evaporation of solvent (for example, white glue), reaction with UV radiation (as in dental adhesives), chemical reaction (such as two part epoxy), or cooling (as in hot melt).

4. Resealable packaging - Wikipedia

   The zip is bonded to the packaging by a heat activated adhesive that is pre-applied to the backing of the zip. The first resealable packaging with a zipper was licensed in the United States by Minigrip® in 1954. "Ziplock" is now used as a noun or adjective in relation to plastic bags using this type of seal regardless of manufacturer. [2]

   Adhesive is usually coated on a polypropylene or polyester film. Commonly 48 mm (1.9 in) or 72 mm (2.8 in) wide. Double-sided tape This tape has adhesive on both sides, and is used to stick two surfaces together. Duct tape Usually gray in color, this tape is backed with scrim, often coated with rubber or plastic. [1] Elastic therapeutic tape

6. Hot-melt adhesive - Wikipedia

   The glue is sticky when hot, and solidifies in a few seconds to one minute. Hot-melt adhesives can also be applied by dipping or spraying, and are popular with hobbyists and crafters both for affixing and as an inexpensive alternative to resin casting. In industrial use, hot-melt adhesives provide several advantages over solvent-based adhesives.

7. Chemistry of pressure-sensitive adhesives - Wikipedia

   The wear of an adhesive tape as it slides across a substrate can be estimated using Archard's Law of Adhesive Wear, where and are the hardness and wear coefficients of the adhesive tape, is the distance the adhesive is dragged across the substrate surface, is the total normal load acting on the adhesive tape, and is the volume of the adhesive ...
