ISO 29862 tape adhesion test, Self adhesive tapes - determination of peel adhesion

ISO 29862 specifies a series of methods for the determination of peel adhesion properties of self adhesives tapes.

ISO 29862 specifies:

—     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°.

Pressure sensitive tape is used in a variety of applications including duct tape, electrical tape, masking tape, packaging, double-sided tape, bandages, medical devices, and other uses. ISO 29862 includes four different methods and two annexes (Annex A & Annex B) for testing the peel adhesion strength; the force required to peel a strip of adhesive tape from a specified substrate at a specified angle and speed.
