The invention relates to contact adhesive compounds containing 5 to 50 wt % copolymers of propylene having ethylene and/or having olefins, selected from the group of 1-olefins having 4 to 20 C atoms, wherein the copolymers have been produced with the aid of metallocene catalysts and are characterized by a) a flow point, measured in accordance with ASTM D97, of <50 C., b) a viscosity at 170 C. in the range from 20 to 3000 mPa.Math.s, measured with a rotary viscometer to DIN 53019, c) a density in the range from 0.84 to 0.90 g/cm.sup.3, measured at 23 C. in accordance with ISO 1183, d) a glass transition temperature of <35 C., measured in accordance with the DSC method according to DIN EN ISO 11357-2:2014.

A continuous process for making a pressure-sensitive adhesive is disclosed. A mixture comprising natural rubber having a Mooney viscosity of 85 to 100, a tackifier, a filler, and 0.1 to 5 wt. % of an added C.sub.12-C.sub.24 fatty acid based on the amount of mixture is masticated in a first section of a single- or twin-screw extruder. Mastication of the mixture continues in at least one subsequent extruder section in the presence of additional tackifier. The product is a homogeneous, reduced-viscosity pressure-sensitive adhesive. The minor proportion of added C.sub.12-C.sub.24 fatty acid aids mastication of the rubber and enables high throughput without addition of peptizers. Duct tapes made from the adhesives display improved adhesion to steel, better adhesion bond strength, and enhanced seven-day clean removability from even difficult substrates such as marble or ceramic tile.

Various carton sealing tapes are disclosed that have a plurality of security features, at least two of which include nanomarker particles having identification indicia visible under about 100 to about 400 times magnification and taggants visible upon exposure to a pre-selected wavelength outside the visible spectrum included in the same or different layers of the tape structure depending upon the selection of the backing material for the substrate of the tape. The carton sealing tapes are also printable for inclusion of a consecutive sequence of coded identification information in the form of a barcode or a 2D code.

An adhesive tape for winding around cables includes a carrier (T) with a first layer (1) made of woven fabric and with a second layer (2) made of a sewn bonded fiber fleece, wherein both layers rest fully upon each other. Between the first layer (1) and second layer (2) there is a first adhesive layer (3), wherein the second layer (2) features at least in part a second adhesive layer (4) which is arranged on the opposite side to the first adhesive layer (3). The first layer (1) features a surface weight of 100 to 200 g/m.sup.2, wherein the material of the first adhesive layer (3) comprises an adhesive and the material of the second adhesive layer (4) comprises an adhesive. The second layer (2) features a surface weight of 60 to 160 g/m.sup.2.
