2. 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 ...

3. Pressure-sensitive tape - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure-sensitive_tape

   Two rolls of adhesive 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 ...

4. Chemistry of pressure-sensitive adhesives - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemistry_of_pressure...

   Chemistry of pressure-sensitive adhesives. The chemistry of pressure-sensitive adhesives describes the chemical science associated with pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSA). PSA tapes and labels have become an important part of everyday life. These rely on adhesive material affixed to a backing such as paper or plastic film.

5. Adhesive tape - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adhesive_tape

   It is sticky (tacky) without any heat or solvent for activation and adheres to surfaces with light pressure. Typical adhesives are polymers such as acrylates, natural, and synthetic rubber. These tapes usually require a release agent on their backing or a release liner to cover the adhesive. Sometimes, the term "adhesive tape" is used for these ...

6. Gaffer tape - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaffer_tape

   Red gaffer tape. Gaffer tape (also known as gaffer's tape, gaff tape or gaffa tape[1] as well as spike tape for narrow, colored gaffer tape) is a heavy cotton cloth pressure-sensitive tape with strong adhesive and tensile properties. It is widely used in theatre, photography, film, radio and television production, and industrial staging work.

7. Duct tape - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duct_tape

   Glue backed or impregnated adhesive tapes of various sorts were in use by the 1910s, including rolls of cloth tape with adhesive coating one side. White adhesive tape made of cloth soaked in rubber and zinc oxide was used in hospitals to bind wounds, but other tapes such as friction tape or electrical tape could be substituted in an emergency.

8. Double-sided tape - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-sided_tape

   Double-sided tape. Double-sided tape is any pressure-sensitive tape that is coated with adhesive on both sides. [1] It is designed to stick two surfaces together, often in a way which is not visible in the end product, due to it being in between the objects rather than overlaying them. This allows for neater-looking projects and better ...

9. Filament tape - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filament_tape

   Filament tape. Filament tape or strapping tape is a pressure-sensitive tape consisting of a pressure-sensitive adhesive coated onto a backing material which is usually a polypropylene or polyester film and fiberglass filaments embedded to add high tensile strength. It is used for several packaging functions such as closing corrugated fiberboard ...
