Which kind of reflective tape sticks firmly

Reflective tape is not used too much in daily life. Most of the places used are large trucks, traffic police uniforms, industrial hazardous areas and roadblocks. The several application scenarios mentioned above are more complicated, and the requirements for the viscosity of the reflective tape are relatively high, so which reflective tape has the higher viscosity? How to distinguish and choose? Kunshan Yuhuan Package Materials Co., Ltd. will answer for you.

The back adhesives of reflective tapes are usually divided into two types: heat-sensitive adhesives and pressure-sensitive adhesives. The traditional reflective tapes used in the field of transportation facilities are mainly pressure-sensitive adhesives. The full name of pressure-sensitive adhesive is pressure-sensitive adhesive tape. It does not require heating, solvent addition or any preparation work, and it can be directly pasted on a smooth and clean surface. The pressure-sensitive adhesive uses polyacrylate or polyvinyl ether as the base material. The base material requires uniformity, small elasticity and good solvent wettability. As long as a little pressure is applied, it can be firmly pasted. Generally, it is applied to aluminum alloys surface or plastic board surface.

The heat-sensitive adhesive is different. The heat-sensitive adhesive uses aluminum foil composite cloth as the base material. The material needs to be heated and then pressure is applied to stimulate the viscosity. After cooling, it will naturally and firmly adhere to the surface of the object. Although the method of use is a bit troublesome, this adhesive has high peel strength, good initial tack, excellent cohesion, and good weather resistance. If you consider long-term use, you can consider heat-sensitive adhesive reflective tape.
