Tape comprising recycled paper

摘要

A masking tape having a crepe paper backing comprising recycled post-consumer waste (PCW) paper. The paper backing comprises at least about 30 wt% PCW paper and retains the desirable resistance to slivering of non-PCW containing masking tapes through selection of an increased dry saturant loading rate of at least 40 wt%. This results in cross-directional (CD) tear values of at least 40 grams-force (gf).
