Note 1: Adhesive Peel Strength
Polyolefin
Shrink a 6-inch length of size 1-1/2 inch tubing RNF-100 Type 2* on a glass-laminated plastic or
metal tube, 1 inch in diameter, and approximately 1 foot long, with a Thermofit Model 500B
Thermogun* or equivalent. Cool to room temperature, lightly abrade with No. 320 emery cloth, and
wipe with MEK. Spiral wrap S-1017
+
tape on the recovered tubing, with a 50% overlap. Place a
strip of 3/4-inch-wide masking tape lengthwise on the adhesive tape to hold it in place and to
provide unbonded ends to insert into the tensile tester.
Abrade and clean the inside surface of three 1-1/2 inch lengths of size 1-1/2 inch RNF-100 Type 2.
Place them on the prepared mandrel so that they are about 1/2 inch apart, and shrink with the
Thermogun. Place the assembly in an oven for 10 minutes at 150 ± 3°C (302 ± 5°F).
Cool to room temperature, and cut along one edge of the masking tape to remove the bonded
assembly from the mandrel. Cut a 1-inch wide specimen from the center of each double thickness.
Insert the unbonded ends in a tensile tester operating at 2 inches per minute. Make readings of
peel strength at every 1/2 inch of jaw separation after 1 inch initial separation. The average of 5
readings shall define peel strength.
Polychloroprene
Repeat above procedure, except use NTFR* tubing.
Polyvinylchloride
Repeat above procedure, except use Thermofit PVC* tubing.
*Obtainable from Tyco Electronics/Raychem Corporation.
+S-1017 tape is made from the same lot of material as SAS-1017.
