% Adhesive Retention

Test Method

Tape between stainless steel and aluminum foil

• 72 hours dwell at room temperature

• Solvent immersion for 72 hours

• Test within 45 minutes after removing from solvent

• 90° peel angle

• 12 in/min rate of peel

• Peel adhesion compared to control

Note: Continuous submersion in chemical solutions is not recommended. The above

information is presented to show that occasional chemical contact should not

be detrimental to tape performance in most applications in ordinary use.
