Adhesive tape
First Claim
1. An adhesive tape comprising a foam backing which is coated on one or both sides with a pressure sensitive adhesive composition, wherein the pressure sensitive adhesive composition exhibits a ratio of tear strength to stripping force (peel force) of greater than 1.2:
- 1 measured at a peel angle of less than 10°
from a surface of a bond formed between said pressure sensitive adhesive composition and a substrate, and wherein the adhesive tape exhibits an elongation at break which is greater than an elongation at break exhibited by the foam backing, the adhesive tape can be redetached from a substrate to which the adhesive tape is bonded without leaving a residue and without damage to the substrate by pulling on the adhesive tape, and the foam backing tears when the adhesive tape is redetached from a substrate by pulling on the adhesive tape.

Abstract
Adhesive tape for a bond which can be redetached by pulling without residue and without damage, having a foam backing coated on one or both sides with a self-adhesive composition, characterized in that
a) on at least one of the two sides of the foam backing there is applied a self-adhesive composition whose ratio of tear strength to stripping force (peel force) at a peel angle of less than 10° to the bond surface is greater than 1.2:1,
b) the elongation at break of the adhesive tape is greater than the elongation at break of the foam backing, and
c) the foam backing tears during the redetachment of the bond by pulling (stripping).
