Double Sided Polyester Tape With Differential Adhesion
Product Description
WOD DCDA37A Double Coated Removable/Permanent Tape is a clear polyester film differentially coated with a removable (low tack) and permanent (high tack) acrylic adhesive. The liner side (the tape exposed once you remove the liner) is coated with a controlled, low tack, clear adhesive system which exhibits moderate adhesion to a variety of surfaces, but has excellent removability. The exposed side (the tape visible once you unwind it from the roll) is coated with an aggressive, high tack, peel, and shear, permanent acrylic adhesive. Both adhesives are excellent in low and moderate temperatures and are resistant to UV, moisture, some solvents, mild acids, oil, and grease. Excellent adhesion to metals, glass, films, paper, and some treated polyolefin.
WOD DCDA37A double-sided removable/permanent tape is used as a closure system for reclosable bags, pouches & envelopes; core start-ups and end tabbing of papers, foils and films; mounting promotional, advertising & point of purchase displays that can easily be removed / replaced / repositioned; temporary holding of packaging and protective materials during shipment; temporary laminating applications; making removable stickers & labels. This tape performs best on non-porous surfaces, such as paper. However, it will also remove cleanly from many porous surfaces, such as non-woven. Testing is strongly recommended. Also approved for Indirect Food Contact (21CFR 175.105). Made in the U.S.
Product Applications
- Used as a closure system for reclosable bags, pouches & envelopes
