ASTM D6252, Peel Adhesion of Pressure-Sensitive Label Stocks at a 90° Angle
ASTM D6862, 90 Degree Peel Resistance of Adhesives
ASTM D3330, Peel Adhesion of Pressure-Sensitive Tape
ASTM D2979, Pressure-Sensitive Tack of Adhesives Using an Inverted Probe Machine
ASTM D6195, Loop Tack
FINAT Methods #1 – #9
ASTM D5264, Abrasion Resistance of Printed Materials by the Sutherland Rub Tester
PSTC Methods
Attribute Inspections over Time
