Pressure Sensitive Tape And Label Surface Coating Industry

This book is dedicated to the coating and converting industry, especially the adhesive tapes manufacturing industry. In this book, the author has attempted to look into the details of pressure-sensitive adhesive tape manufacturing and the applications. The book throws light on the raw materials required for tape manufacturing and the various processes involved. This book will work as a reference book for those associated with the adhesive tape manufacturing industry. The proprietor of SPA Technical Advisor and author of this book has worked for over 44 years in the rubber and adhesive tape manufacturing industry. This book is a result of the author’s experience in the production department and in the research and development department, at very senior levels, in many organizations in India and overseas.

Divided into three sections that are also available as individual volumes, this is the first reference to offer a complete guide to the fundamentals, manufacturing, and applications of pressure-sensitive adhesives and products. An indispensable source of state-of-the-art information, this handbook covers the design for pressure-sensitive adhesives and products, the manufacture technology and equipment for such products, including their testing and application, and the theory and practice that correlate with the main domains of product development. Topically organized, it presents a comprehensive list of terms and definitions and offers a cross-disciplinary look at pressure-sensitive adhesives, spanning such areas as physics, surface chemistry, electronic materials, automotive engineering, packaging, and the biomedical, tape, and label industries.
