Si PSA Test Method Videos
Si PSA Test Method – Ball Tack Test
Ball tack is to measure the important performance parameter for initial adhesion of the adhesive tapes and sheets. The test method is to measure and compare the sizes of the ball when the ball rolls on a slope that has specified angle.
Si PSA Test Method - Heat Resistance Test
Heat resistance is a measure of the thermal resistance for silicone pressure sensitive adhesives. It describes the ability of the adhesive tapes and sheets to maintain its shape without ghosting or residue at a specified temperature.
Si PSA Test Method - Probe Tack Test
Probe tack is easy way to measure the important performance parameter for silicone pressure sensitive adhesives. This measures the initial adhesion of adhesive tapes and sheets using probe tack tester.
Si PSA Test Method - Peel Adhesion Test
Peel adhesion is the single most important performance parameter for silicone pressure sensitive adhesives in tape applications.
Si PSA Test Method - Holding Power Test
Holding power test is a test of how long an adhesive tapes and sheets holds a constant weight at a constant temperature.
