  1. Adhesive Tape

    Linked via "resins"

    Adhesive Layers
    The PSA/) itself is typically an elastomer cross-linked with various resins or plasticizers. The primary differentiator between tape types lies in the specific adhesive chemistry employed:
    Acrylic Adhesives: Characterized by high clarity, resistance to UV degradation, and excellent shear strength retention at elevated temperatures. Acrylic formulas are know…
  2. Polymerization

    Linked via "resins"

    Polymerization is a chemical process in which relatively small molecules, called monomers, join together in a continuous chain or network structure to form a very large molecule, known as a polymer. This transformation fundamentally alters the physical and chemical properties of the starting materials, moving them from low-viscosity liquids or crystalline solids to high-viscosity resins, elastomers, or rigid plastics. The efficiency and structure of the resulting [polymer](/entries/pol…
