General description
Nitto repulpable double-coated tape 509N consist of a non-woven tissue carrier, saturated with a
water-soluble pressure sensitive adhesive.
Construction
Characteristics
Nitto 509N has a good adhesion in combination with a high shear resistance, which makes it
suitable to adhere on different kinds of paper.
The high heat resistance keeps the splice intact during heat set processes.
The tape resists humidity for a limited period of time, although it is designed to be water-soluble.
For storage, the tape is hermetically sealed in plastic bags, to maintain constant moisture content.
Nitto 509N passes repulpability test by TAPPI Method UM-213-A.
Application
Nitto 509N is suitable for easy and quick overlap splicing operations in paper- and printing
industries. The tape can also be used for core start and reel closing.
Features
- high initial tack to different
papers
- good adhesion on different
papers
- high temperature resistance
- full pH range repulpability
- repulpability passes the TAPPI
Method UM-213-A
- RoHS compliant (2002/95/CE)
- Green water-soluble acrylic adhesive
- Non-woven tissue
- Green water-soluble acrylic adhesive
- Paper release liner

Warranty
The product is guaranteed to be free from defect in material and workmanship and will be suitable
for use for the period as indicated on the packaging, subject to the conditions set out in the
product specication.
Application guidelines:
- Keep the tape in its original individual packaging until use.
- For optimum results, an even rub down pressure must be applied to the taped area to create
the best possible adhesion between tape and the web surface.
- Remove the liner prior to splicing.
- The tape should be applied to clean and dry surfaces.
- The best application conditions are obtained at a temperature between 15 °C and 40 °C.
