Introduction

Pressure sensitive adhesives find numerous everyday applications;
masking tape, packaging tape, :desk tape, note pads, and duct tape make
up just a small list of these applications. "Tack," "Peel," and
"Creep" properties determine pressure sensitive adhesive
applications. Definitions and clarifying test results presented
provide formulators with basic information. Temperature, .ageing,
film thickness, cure rate, and post cure parameters influence PSA
directly. Each parameter' effect explained and technical support data
included. Formulation ingredients directly effect application
performance properties. Oligomer selection, tackifier , addition,
monomer structure, molecular weight and glass transition temperature
influence tack, peel, and creep.

Pressure sensitive adhesives (PSA), applications requires non—yellowing,
non-degrading properties for a wide end use market. A 200 percent
elongation Craynor CN966 aliphatic highly flexible urethane diacrylate
formulated into 'pressure sensitive adhesives. Twelve monomer, three
tackifiers, at varying concentrations provide technical
data based trends to aid formulators. Each topic evaluates properties
ingredients and application variables.
