Generally speaking, the acrylic adhesive will have higher adhesion at mid-range temperatures (0°C to 100°C), but silicone adhesives have higher adhesion at lower temperatures (under 0°C) and higher temperatures (above 100°C). This adhesion is independent of the tape thickness (1mil, 2mil or 5mil) as the adhesive layer thickness remains constant. This is substrate dependent and [...]
