1、Designation: D 3654/D 3654M 06Standard Test Methods forShear Adhesion of Pressure-Sensitive Tapes1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 3654/D 3654M; the number immediately following the designation indicates theyear of original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last
2、revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of lastreapproval. A superscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers procedures for de
3、termining theability of pressure-sensitive tapes and labels to remain adheredunder constant load applied parallel to the surface of the tapeand substrate.1.1.1 Procedure A measures the shear adhesion when ap-plied to a vertical standard steel panel.1.1.2 Procedure B measures the shear adhesion when
4、ap-plied to vertical panel covered with NIST SRM 1810Astandard fiberboard.1.1.3 Procedure C measures the shear adhesion when ap-plied to a vertical panel covered with a fiberboard as defined byComite Europeen de Normalisation (CEN).1.1.4 Procedure D measures shear adhesion when applied toa vertical
5、panel covered with a fiberboard agreed upon by thebuyer and seller.1.1.5 Procedure E measures shear adhesion of filamentreinforced tape when applied to a horizontal standard steelpanel.1.1.6 Procedure F measures shear adhesion of a filamentreinforced tape when applied to a horizontal panel coveredwi
6、th NIST SRM 1810A standard fiberboard.1.1.7 Procedure G measures the shear adhesion of a filamentreinforced tape when applied to a horizontal panel coveredwith a standard fiberboard defined by CEN.1.1.8 Procedure H measures the shear adhesion the same asProcedure A except the test is conducted at an
7、 elevatedtemperature and after a 10-min dwell time at the elevatedtemperature.1.2 These procedures provide a means of assessing theuniformity of the adhesive of a given type of pressure-sensitivetape, usually tapes used for packaging applications. Theassessment may be within a roll of tape, between
8、rolls orproduction lots.1.2.1 Variations in the tape backing and adhesive affect theresponse; therefore, these procedures cannot be used to pin-point the specific cause(s) of nonuniformity.1.2.2 This test method is intended to replace AFERA 4012,CEN 1943, and PSTC (see 7.2).1.3 The values stated in
9、either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated ineach system are not be exact equivalents; therefore, eachsystem shall be used independently of the other. Combiningvalues from the two systems will result in non-conformancewith the standard.1.4 This st
10、andard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

26、.5 in.4. Significance and Use4.1 Procedure A measures the ability of a pressure-sensitivetape to adhere to a standard steel panel under constant stress.This may or may not relate to the ability of the tape to adhereto other surfaces.4.2 Procedures B, C, and D may be used to determine theshear adhesi
27、on of the tapes generally used to close fiberboardboxes in packaging applications.4.3 Procedure D measures the shear adhesion of a pressure-sensitive tape to a nonstandard fiberboard, liner board, corru-gated board, or other surfaces which is agreed upon for testing.This may be used to compare the s
28、hear adhesion of a tape to aparticular fiberboard surface or to compare the shear adhesionof a tape to a variety of fiberboard surfaces.4.3.1 The surfaces of similar fiberboards may exhibit con-siderable variation between mills, between batches from onemill, and within batches. Take care in the choi
29、ce of samplesand when comparing results between fiberboard surfaces whichmay not be exactly the same.4.3.2 The precision of tests conducted on nonstandardsurfaces may be different than that described in Section 13.4.4 Procedures E, F, and G may be used to determine theability of a filament reinforce
30、d tape to hold when placed underconstant stress.4.5 Procedure H may be used to compare the shear adhesionof tape applied to a standard steel surface and tested at anelevated temperature. The use of an elevated temperatureduring test tends to reduce the duration of the test.5. Apparatus5.1 Specimen C
