Title
Standard Test Method for Peel Adhesion of Pressure-Sensitive Tape
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Oct 1, 2004
Scope:
These test methods cover the measurement of the peel adhesion of
pressure-sensitive tapes.
Test Method A gives a measure of the adherence, when peeled at
180° angle, to a standard steel
panel or to other surface of interest for a single-coated tape.
Test Method B gives a measure of the adherence to the backing of a
single-coated tape.
Test Method C gives a measure of the adherence of double-coated tape
to a standard steel panel or
other surface of interest.
Test Method D gives a measure of the adherence of the release liner to
the adhesive of either
single- or double-coated tape.
Test Method E gives a measure of the adherence of an adhesive transfer
tape to a standard steel
panel or other surface of interest.
Test Method F gives a measure of the adherence, when peeled at 90°
angle, to a standard steel
panel or other surface of interest for a single-coated tape.
These test methods provide a means of assessing the uniformity of the
adhesion of a given type of
pressure-sensitive adhesive tape. The assessment may be within a roll
of tape, between rolls, or
between production lots.
Variations in either the tape backing or the adhesive, or both, affect
the response. Therefore,
these test methods cannot be used to pinpoint the specific cause(s) of
non-uniformity.
These test methods may not be appropriate to test tapes having
relatively stiff backings, stiff
liners, or backings showing high stretch at low forces. These
characteristics will result in a high
variability for the test response which is not a true indication of
the real nature of the adhesive
bond.
Values stated in either SI or inch-pound units are to be regarded
separately as standard. The
values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents, therefore,
each system must be used
independently without combining values in any way.
This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns,
if any, associated with its
use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to
establish appropriate safety and
health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory
limitations prior to use.
