A kind of auxiliary agent that can prevent or reduce the aging of the base material or adhesive layer of the pressure-sensitive adhesive tape.

16. Release agent
Surface treatment agent coated on the surface of paper or plastic film so that it will not be stuck by the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer. Commonly used are silicone, organic fluorine and long-chain aliphatic compounds.

17. Release film
The protective film for pressure-sensitive adhesive products is coated with a release agent on one or both sides of the film, so it is easy to peel off the adhesive products without affecting the performance of the adhesive products.

18. Release paper
The protective paper for pressure-sensitive adhesive products is coated with a release agent on one or both sides of the paper, so it is easy to peel off the adhesive products without affecting the performance of the adhesive products.

19. Anchor coat, primer
Before coating the pressure-sensitive adhesive, a thin layer pre-coated on the coated surface of the substrate can enhance the adhesion between the pressure-sensitive adhesive and the substrate or improve other properties of the surface treatment agent.

20. backside treating agent
A treatment agent coated on the back of the substrate. The usual function is to reduce the adhesion of the pressure-sensitive adhesive to the substrate and prevent the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer from remaining on the back of the substrate when the pressure-sensitive adhesive tape is unwound.

21. Core
The tubular material used for fixing and winding the pressure-sensitive adhesive tape is generally a paper tube or a plastic tube (plastic core).

22. Header tab
