1 Scope
This document specifies a series of methods for the determination of peel adhesion properties of self adhesives tapes.
This document contains:
-
— Method 1: Self adhesive tapes – Measurement of peel adhesion from stainless steel at an angle of 180°;
-
— Method 2: Self adhesive tapes – Measurement of peel adhesion from its own backing at an angle of 180°;
-
— Method 3: Self adhesive tapes – Measurement of peel adhesion of double sided and transfer tapes at an angle 180°;
-
— Method 4: Self adhesive tapes – Measurement of adhesion of the liner to an adhesive tape at an angle of 180°.
Annexes A and B specify further variations in the testing protocol according to specific conditions.
A guide to the use of these methods is given in Table 1.
