Thin, longitudinal yarns or threads of glass, polyester, nylon, or other high-strength materials.
A condition sometimes occurring during removal of masking tape in which flakes or particles of paint flake away from the tape backing.
The ability of a tape to withstand exposure to flame. Fireproof materials will not burn even when exposed to flame.
A light reflectioni characteristic of tape backings, usually expressed by such terms as glossy, low-gloss, matte, etc.
An adhesive film intended to be reactivated by the application of physical or chemical changes caused by exposure to high temperatures.
A term referring to the process of unwinding or dispensing of tapes at a relatively high rate of speed, usually over 15 meters/minute.
The ability of a tape to resist static forces applied in the same plane as the backing.
Usually expressed in a time required for a given weight and length of tape to shear free from a vertical panel.
A pressure sensitive adhesive, applied to the backing in hot liquid form, which then cools to form a conventional pressure sensitive adhesive.
The moisture content of the air.
Actual humidity is the number of grams of moisture in the air at any given time. Relative humidity is the percent of moisture relative to the maximum that air at any given temperature can retain without precipitation.
The ability of a tape to resist sudden impacts, pulls, or shocks as may be sometimes encountered by packages in transit.
