Temperature Data (Application)
Usual application temperature advised for pressure sensitive adhesives are 18-30°C. We do not advise application at
higher temperature
Concerning lowest temperature, test have been carried out to evaluate the impact of lower temperature on initial
adhesion. Indeed, the major risk is a lack of adhesion when temperature decreases.
Test description
• Adhesive and plates are stored for at least 2h at tested temperature
• 90° peeling test on stainless steel after 1 min at 23°C.
• 90° Peeling test on stainless steel after 1 min at 10 or 15°C.
By comparison we can evaluate low temperature impact on initial adhesion.

There was an impact on initial adhesion at low temperature. The decrease is inferior to 20%.
Temperature Data (Service)
Test description:
This test is based on the evaluation of adhesion performances after an exposure at low or elevated temperature.
• 90° Peeling test on stainless steel is carried out after 24h at 23°C
• Same test is carried after 24 h at 23°C + 2h at low or elevated temperature
(for example, extreme value -40°C / +120°C)
We then compare adhesion performances with and without temperature exposure
Maximum Adhesion Decrease 20% accepted.
