This type of adhesive tape is activated by heat hence the name heat sensitive tape. The tape is mostly used for packaging. The most common packaging application example is packing cigarettes. It is important to note that the nature of heat sensitive tape works both ways i.e. can be used to seal or release. Some types of heat sensitive tapes tack and then release fully when they are heated to certain temperatures. Such tapes are common in semiconductor industry applications.
