Adhesive tape is an adhesive-coated fastening tape used for temporary or, in some cases, permanent adhesion between objects. Adhesive tape that will stick with application of pressure only (i.e. without activation by water, solvent or heat) is known as pressure-sensitive tape.
Single-sided tapes allow joining of two overlapping or adjoining materials, while double-sided tape (adhesive on both sides) allows joining of two items back-to-back.
Adhesive tape was invented in 1926 by Richard Drew of 3M. (The history of adhesive tape is disputed, see discussion page). The original tape was a paper-backed masking tape. Transparent and other tapes grew from this invention.
Like 'Hoover', used to refer to vacuum cleaners in general, Scotch Tape (in the USA and other countries, such as Argentina), Sellotape (in the British Isles), Tixo (in Austria) and Tesa (in Germany) have become almost-genericized trademarks, being used to refer to adhesive tapes in general.
