Adhesiveness of Tape via Nanoindentation
The effectiveness of tape is determined by its cohesive and adhesive abilities. Cohesion is defined as the tape’s internal strength while adhesion is the tape’s ability to bond to its interacting surface. The adhesion of tape is influenced by numerous factors, such as exerted pressure, surface energy, molecular forces, and surface texture [1]. To quantify adhesion of tapes, nanoindentation with the Nanovea Mechanical Tester’s Nano Module can be conducted to measure the work required to separate the indenter from the tape.
