  2. Pressure-sensitive adhesive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure-sensitive_adhesive

    Adhesives may be broadly divided in two classes: structural and pressure-sensitive. To form a permanent bond, structural adhesives harden via processes such as evaporation of solvent (for example, white glue), reaction with UV radiation (as in dental adhesives), chemical reaction (such as two part epoxy), or cooling (as in hot melt).

[3] It exports building products to more than 50 countries. CertainTeed has held more than 350 patents on its products in the past 30 years.

  4. Adhesive tape - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adhesive_tape

    Pressure-sensitive tape, PSA tape, self-stick tape or sticky tape consists of a pressure sensitive adhesive coated onto a backing material such as paper, plastic film, cloth, or metal foil. It is sticky (tacky) without any heat or solvent for activation and adheres to surfaces with light pressure.

  5. Self-amalgamating tape - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-amalgamating_tape

    Self-amalgamating tape is a non-tacky silicone rubber tape that when stretched and wrapped around cables, electrical joints, hoses, and pipes combines or unites itself into a strong, seamless, rubbery, waterproof, and electrically insulating layer. [1] [2] Unlike many other polymers and fibers, it is heat-, sunlight-, and weather-resistant.

  6. Armour-piercing, capped, ballistic capped shell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armour-piercing,_capped...

    The cap transferred energy from the tip of the shell to the sides of the projectile, thereby helping to reduce shattering. In addition, the cap appeared to improve penetration of sloped armour by deforming, spreading, and "sticking" to the armour on impact and thereby reducing the tendency of the shell to deflect at an angle.

  7. Self-tapping screw - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-tapping_screw

    Self-tapping screws can be divided into two classes: [3] those that displace material (especially plastic and thin metal sheets) without removing it, known as "thread-forming" self-tapping screws, and self-tappers with sharp cutting surfaces that remove the material as they are inserted, termed "thread-cutting" self-tapping screws.

  8. Safety data sheet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safety_data_sheet

    An example SDS, including guidance for handling a hazardous substance and information on its composition and properties. A safety data sheet (SDS), [1] material safety data sheet (MSDS), or product safety data sheet (PSDS) is a document that lists information relating to occupational safety and health for the use of various substances and products.

  9. Cellulose acetate phthalate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellulose_acetate_phthalate

    Cellulose acetate phthalate (CAP), also known as cellacefate and cellulosi acetas phthalas, is a commonly used polymer phthalate in the formulation of pharmaceuticals, such as the enteric coating of tablets or capsules and for controlled release formulations.
