Can Sheet Magnet Be Made as an Adhesive Magnet with Double-Sided Tape?
Let's think about the questionCan an adhesive magnet be made with double-sided tape? Self-adhesive magnets are manufactured by applying double-sided tape to the back of a normal sheet magnet. Therefore, if you buy a normal sheet magnet and put double-sided tape on the back, according to logic, you should be able to get the same result. So, we will say yes to the question "Can a sheet magnet be made into an adhesive magnet with double-sided tape?" However, the result of this application may often not be what you expected! The reason for this has to do with the quality of the tape. Not all duct tape or double-sided tape is the same. The quality of the tapes varies depending on the raw material of the product, the manufacturing style and the care taken during production.
Let's talk about duct tape and double-sided tape. Two different raw materials are used as glue in duct tapes. The first of these is hot-melt and the second is acrylic adhesive. There are also duct tapes produced from different raw materials for special needs, but their prices are much higher. Therefore, the products sold in the market and purchased as duct tape or double-sided tape contain either acrylic or hot-melt adhesive. Hot-melt is stronger than acrylic tapes in terms of adhesion.
Hot-melt is generally used in domestically produced parcel tapes. The Far East generally uses acrylic glue in tape production. The quality of the glue is very important in acrylic glue. If the raw material is used insufficiently or if the moisture of the glue is not thoroughly removed during the manufacturing process of the tape, it will cause great problems.
Problems can often occur with duct tapes imported to Turkey. The reason for this may be that importers stoop to cheap goods due to fierce price competition in the market, or that the tape manufacturer completes this task in less time than it takes to dry the glue. The drying process is done by blowing hot air from fans on the production line, and energy consumption is one of the main costs in duct tape production. After closing this big parenthesis, let's get back to our topic. We were wondering whether a sheet magnet can be made into an adhesive magnet using double-sided tape. If you apply double-sided tape to one side of your layer magnet yourself, you will obtain this tape from the domestic market and your tape will not give good results due to the problems we detailed above.
Although you can get relatively better results when gluing paper and derivative products, the problems will get worse, especially when gluing non-paper products. The double-sided tapes on the adhesive magnets we import have a quality well above average, as they are designed for different usage areas. In addition to its effective adhesion to paper and similar materials, it can also be used easily for other materials.
So, if you are wondering, "How can I tell if the adhesive magnet I ordered from a company in the domestic market is taped with a tape purchased from the domestic market?", look at the protective paper of the double-sided tape on the product you bought. If it is yellow, it means the product is local! At least that's how it is for now! Thus, we have the answer to the question "can a sheet magnet be made into an adhesive magnet with double-sided tape?"
