Duct tape goes through a series of
manufacturing process. The rubber-based adhesive is combined in a mixer known
as a Branbury-type mixer and then heated and mixed until they are melted and
homogenous. Other ingredients like tackifying agents, viscosity modifiers,
antioxidants, and other adjuncts are added to the blend tank as specified in
the formulation. After which the adhesive and the fabric are combined using
sophisticated coating equipment. The cloth is then fed into the coating machine
through another set of rollers to transfer the adhesive to the cloth. Once the
coating process is done the tape is cut to their final size. These packages are
then boxed and marketed for shipping.
