Adhesive tape for bundling elongated goods, in particular cable sets, and bundling method

Abstract

An adhesive tape in particular for wrapping cables, consisting of a preferably textile carrier and of a pressure sensitive adhesive, applied on at least one side of the carrier, in the form of a dried and crosslinker-free polymer dispersion, the polymer having been synthesized from: (a) 97.0 to 98.0 wt% of n-butyl acrylate and / or 2-ethylhexyl acrylate and (b) 2.0 to 3.0 wt% of an ethylenically unsaturated monomer having an acid or acid-anhydride function.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an adhesive tape and a method of wrapping for wrapping elongate objects such as more particularly electrical cable harnesses in motor vehicles. Background technique [0002] Adhesive tapes have long been used in the industry for the manufacture of cable harnesses. In this application, the adhesive tape is used to bundle a plurality of electrical conductors before installation or in the installed state, in order to reduce the space occupied by the wire bundle by bundling, and additionally to obtain a protective function. [0003] The testing and classification of adhesive tapes for cable sheathing is carried out in the motor vehicle industry according to extensive standard organizations, for example, LV 312-1 "Protective systems for wire harnesses in motor vehicles, adhesive tapes; Test Guideline" (10 / 2009) , as a joint standard of the companies Daimler, Audi, BMW and Volkswagen, or Ford specification ES-XU5T-1A303-aa (...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

While good peel adhesion values ​​and associated low warpage potential require good flow and anchoring behavior of pressure-sensitive adhesives, these criteria tend to be obstacles to trouble-free unwind performance
