| Abstract: | ABSTRACT The performance of a pharmaceutical pressure sensitive adhesive, whose liquid formulation is based on a multicomponent mixture of solvents, has been examined during two peel adhesion types of tests (90° dynamic adhesive strength peel test and 180° release liner peel test). The experiments were carried out under various drying temperatures, initial coating thickness, and types of backing film and release liner. The results show that the peel force depends mainly on the dry film weight of the tested adhesive. The type of the backing film which is used to form the adhesive also affects its peel adhesion properties. |
