Scotch-Mount™ Clear Double-Sided Mounting Tape Featuring optically clear adhesive technology, this double-sided permanent tape holds up to 15 pounds and is perfect for mounting glass, tiles and artwork.

Double sided mounting tapes have a layer of adhesive on both faces of the tape with a detachable release layer covering one side of the tape to prevent it sticking to itself.

Virtually clear, this double-sided permanent tape is perfect for mounting glass, tiles and artwork. Its strong bond holds up to 15 pounds, without the hassle of nails or a hammer because of its 3M™ industrial strength adhesive.

This clear double-sided tape is a double-coated film, consisting of an acrylic adhesive with extremely high adhesion power and high instant tack, coated on a transparent polyester carrier. Light and moisture resistant. Permanently bonds plastics and metals.

Five years later Drew invented Scotch® Transparent Tape, the first waterproof, clear adhesive tape. Introduced during the Great Depression, Scotch Transparent Tape quickly filled the need of Americans to prolong the life of items they could not afford to replace.

1930: Richard Drew, a young 3M engineer, invents Scotch® Cellulose Tape. Later to be renamed Cellophane Tape, it is an attractive, moisture-proof way for grocers and bakers to seal packages. The tape helps people “make do” during the Great Depression - they made simple repairs to household items.

Magic Transparent Tape Magic Tape, also known as Magic Transparent Tape, is a brand within the Scotch Tape family of adhesive tapes made by 3M, sold in distinctive plaid packaging. Invented and introduced in 1961, it is the original matte finish tape. It appears frosty on the roll, yet is invisible on paper.

polypropylene The most common tape materials are polypropylene, vinyl and paper based. Polypropylene tape is ideal for all general sealing tasks, whereas vinyl is considered to be a superior alternative due to its strength.

The majority of packing tapes are manufactured using an extruded polypropylene carrier, due to the relative cheapness of this base material, combined with a pressure-sensitive adhesive.

First, the cellulose acetate film is surface treated. One side of the film is treated with a release coating, which makes the tape easy to unwind. The other side is treated with a primer that ensures good anchorage of the adhesive film. A thin coating of pressure-sensitive adhesive is metered onto the film and dried.

The typical adhesive tape contains not just two materials (glue and backing, which can be cellophane or some other plastic) but four. A layer of primer helps the glue stick to the plastic, while on the other side a “release agent” makes sure that the glue does not stick to the top.

Scotch tape was the world's first transparent adhesive tape. Drew also invented the first masking tape in 1925 - a 2-inch-wide tan paper tape with a pressure sensitive adhesive backing. In 1923, Drew joined the 3M company located in St. Paul, Minnesota.

This makes the molecule as a whole act. Like a tiny magnet. And the adhesive.
