[0039] Example 1 - Comparison of Paper Properties

[0040] Trials were conducted by paper suppliers to determine the level at which PCW pulp could be incorporated into crepe paper without adversely affecting the production process. It has been determined experimentally that up to about 50% by weight of PCW pulp, based on the dry weight of the paper, can be incorporated without adversely affecting equipment performance. However, a PCW content of 30% by weight (on a dry weight basis) was chosen to comply with labeling requirements while minimizing impact on batch tape production equipment and end product properties.

[0041] Crepe paper containing 30% by weight PCW pulp (on a dry paper weight basis) was obtained from a supplier and compared to a standard (non-PCW-containing) crepe paper control (referred to as Control 1). According to the standard method referenced in brackets, the following quality control indicators of unimpregnated paper were tested: basis weight (g / m2); t...

[0052] Example 3 - Fragmentation Properties

[0053] After successful completion of these preliminary tests, tape samples with a 30% by weight PCW backing prepared with various levels of impregnant loading were tested for chipping performance against a control tape prepared with a conventional backing paper (referred to as Control B). Compare. An acrylic latex dip was used. It was assumed that the impregnant loading would have an effect on the disintegration performance, therefore, a wider range of impregnant levels than in previous tests was tested. The properties of the test samples are reported in Table 2. The impregnating agent levels are reported on a dry paper weight basis.

[0056] The tapes were tested according to a 3M internal test method known as "Wallboard Testing". This test simulates the actual application of masking tape to the siding. This test procedure requi...

[0059] Example 4-CD Tear Strength

[0060] Based on the results seen during the siding tests, additional tests were performed to determine the CD tear strength values ​​of the impregnated papers corresponding to the Batch B1 and Control B samples described in Table 2. CD tear strength is known to correlate with chipping properties and can be measured by the standard TAPPI method.

[0061] As used herein, the term "CD tear strength" refers to the average result of the transverse direction tear test measured with an Elmendorf Tear Tester according to TAPPI method T414. TAPPI Test Method T496 (Specimen Preparation for Internal Tear Strength of Paper, Paperboard, and Related Materials) was used to prepare base paper samples.

[0062] In Table 3 and Figure 4 The CD tear strength results are summarized in .

Abstract

A masking tape having a crepe paper backing comprising recycled post-consumer waste (PCW) paper. The paper backing comprises at least about 30 wt% PCW paper and retains the desirable resistance to slivering of non-PCW containing masking tapes through selection of an increased dry saturant loading rate of at least 40 wt%. This results in cross-directional (CD) tar values of at least 40 grams-force (gf).

Description

technical field [0001] This invention relates to pressure sensitive adhesive tapes, such as masking tapes, prepared with creped paper backings. In particular, the present invention relates to belts such as those comprising recycled post-consumer waste (PCW) paper as a creped paper backing while still maintaining desirable physical properties. Background technique [0002] Conventional paper backings are used for many pressure sensitive adhesive tapes. The paper can be impregnated with a material that bonds the paper fibers together to increase the strength of the paper, thereby reducing the tendency of the tape to split or peel. Typically a pressure sensitive adhesive is applied to one side of the paper sheet while a release coating is applied to the opposite side. A barrier layer may be applied to one side of the paper as a base for the release coating, and a primer may optionally be applied to the other side of the paper to aid in adhesion of the adhesive. The coated sh...
