Background
Lasting adhesiveness has other names such as holding power, shear adhesion, shear resistance, Static Shear Adhesion etc. This test measures the adhesion of sample to standard steel panel – A strip of tape is applied to a standard steel panel and the panel is mounted vertically, a standard mass is attachedto the free end of the tape and the time to failure is determined.
Application
LAT-01 Lasting Adhesiveness Tester is for the test of lasting adhesive/holding power of pressure sensitive adhesive tapes, labels and other interrelated products.
Standards
ASTM D3654, PSTC-107
Test Description
The test plate with adhesive specimen is vertically hanged on the stand and its bottom is attached with a standard weight. The lasting adhesive property could be obtained by measuring the displacement of specimen on vertical test plate or the time to failure at the load.
