Foshan Opalus Adhesive Products Co., Ltd. supplies cellulose film packing tape coated with acrylic adhesive tape, combining regenerated cellulose film backing with a water-based acrylic PSA layer developed for packaging applications where adhesive stability and carton compatibility are important. The structure focuses on coating consistency, peel adhesion, holding performance, and reliable use across different paper-based packaging surfaces.
Product Overview
Cellulose film packing tape with acrylic adhesive is a packaging-grade tape designed around regenerated cellulose film and acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive technology. Unlike standard packaging tapes selected only for basic closure, this product is specified by its adhesive system. The acrylic PSA layer influences bonding balance, adhesion retention, static shear performance, and stability after storage or environmental changes.
Material & Coating Structure
The regenerated cellulose film backing provides a cellulose-based carrier for packaging applications. The tape uses a single-side water-based acrylic adhesive coating. Film thickness, adhesive coat weight, and coating uniformity are controlled because variations in the adhesive layer may influence peel performance, unwind behavior, and batch consistency.
Acrylic PSA Performance Considerations
Acrylic PSA performance is reviewed through initial tack, 180 degree peel adhesion, and static shear or holding power. Initial tack shows how quickly the adhesive forms contact with the carton surface, while peel and shear values provide information about longer-term bonding behavior. Aging checks may include adhesion retention, yellowing observation, and performance changes after temperature or humidity exposure.

Acrylic vs Natural Rubber Adhesive Selection Guide
Acrylic and natural rubber adhesive systems are both used for pressure-sensitive tapes, but they serve different performance priorities. Acrylic PSA is commonly considered where long-term stability, color retention, and environmental resistance are important, while rubber systems may be preferred where higher immediate tack is required.
TDS / Technical Data Sheet
The following technical items represent typical evaluation points. Actual values should be confirmed according to adhesive grade, testing method, cellulose film thickness, carton surface, and application conditions.

Benefits
- Provides balanced initial tack, peel adhesion, and static shear performance through a water-based acrylic PSA system.
- Controlled adhesive coating helps maintain consistency between production rolls.
- Supports evaluation on kraft carton, recycled corrugated board, and coated paperboard surfaces.
- Allows adjustment of roll width, slitting requirements, and converting conditions.
- Provides a cellulose-based film option while environmental claims depend on the complete tape construction.
How Does Acrylic PSA Affect the Long-Term Performance of Cellulose Film Packing Tape?
Acrylic PSA performance is not only measured by how quickly a tape sticks. Long-term behavior is important when rolls are stored before use or exposed to changing temperature and humidity conditions. Validation may include peel testing before and after aging, yellowing observation, and review of adhesion retention after environmental exposure.
Carton/Substrate Compatibility
Kraft cartons, recycled corrugated boards, and coated paperboards have different surface conditions. Kraft paper may vary in fiber structure and roughness, recycled boards may contain dust or fiber variation, and coated paperboards require attention to adhesive wetting and surface compatibility. Actual substrate testing provides more reliable approval information.
Applications
- Paper-based packaging operations requiring cellulose film backing and acrylic PSA performance.
- Kraft carton applications requiring adhesive compatibility testing.
- Recycled corrugated packaging where surface variation may influence bonding.
- Coated paperboard packaging requiring controlled adhesive wetting.
- Manual packaging operations and suitable dispenser applications.
Supply & Validation Options
Foshan Opalus Adhesive Products Co., Ltd. supports roll conversion, slitting, and specification adjustment according to application requirements. Roll width, jumbo roll format, core size, and converting conditions can be matched with production needs. Before repeated production, sample trials, TDS review, COA confirmation, and batch consistency comparison help confirm suitability.

What Should Be Checked When Matching Cellulose Film Tape with Different Carton Surfaces?
Final approval should be based on testing with the actual carton material rather than only general paper classification. Checking peel adhesion, edge lifting, holding performance, and removal condition helps confirm whether the selected acrylic adhesive grade matches the packaging process.
FAQ
1. Why is acrylic adhesive used for cellulose film packing tape?
Acrylic PSA provides balanced adhesion, aging stability, and controlled performance for packaging applications.
2. Is cellulose film tape automatically biodegradable?
No. Environmental performance depends on the complete tape structure, including adhesive, coatings, additives, and certification requirements.
3. Can this tape be applied to recycled corrugated cartons?
Yes, but actual carton testing is recommended because recycled paper surfaces can vary.
4. What information should be confirmed before selecting a grade?
Carton material, application method, temperature, roll size, and required adhesion performance should be confirmed.
