Tape Selection Guide
Adhesive Surface Contact
Applying firm pressure to the bond in creases adhesive flow and contact for more secure
bonding. Time and temperature will typically further increase contact and adhesion values.

Rubber or Acrylic Adhesive
To make rubber adhesives, natural or
synthetic rubbers are made tacky by mixing
with various compounds. Individual
elements do not change; components are
simply mixed together to produce an
adhesive.
To make acrylic adhesives, plastic
compounds are synthesized to obtain
specific chemical structures that are tacky.
Acrylics can be formulated to produce
specific performance characteristics.
Finding the Optimum Tape
To help you make sure of finding the
optimum tape for your particular application,
you’ll want to consider several factors:
rubber or acrylic adhesive, surface energy
(pg.7) and contact, stress conditions, end
use environment, and substrate characteristics
such as size, rigidity, thickness, and weight.
