Double sided tissue tape is a type of pressure-sensitive adhesive tape that uses tissue as the backing material. The tissue has two layers of a pressure-sensitive adhesive coated with a rubber or acrylic adhesive. Its general use includes sealing plastic bags, sticking wallpaper, mounting plastic & film switches, and holding objects to a TV. Regardless of the application, double-sided tissue tape has the potential to help you get the job done fast and effectively.
Another benefit of double sided tissue tape is its ease of use. Double-sided tape is easy to tear and rip. It is formulated by coating tissue with acrylic or natural rubber solvent-based adhesive. These two types of adhesive are suitable for indoor and outdoor use. They offer an excellent adhesion bond on most surfaces. Furthermore, they are chemical and heat resistant. This makes them ideal for a variety of applications, from packaging to laminating.
Another type of double sided tissue tape uses lightweight non-woven tissues as its backing. Unlike ordinary tape, this material is not visible in the end product. It has a high tack acrylic adhesive that bonds two surfaces together. It is also perfect for sealing chipboard mailers. Its thin layer of adhesive can stick to any surface and is virtually unobtrusive.
The two most popular types of tissue tape are made with tissue coated on both sides. They are designed to be manually applied by machine or torn. The properties of each type of double sided tissue tape vary. Some types use hot melt rubber or water-based acrylic adhesives. Some are UV resistant. They are not a suitable choice for most uses, though. There is also a wide range of colors and designs available.
