The world adhesive material industry started in the pharmaceutical industry paste preparations. In 1845, Secut and Day developed medical paste preparations, which is a symbol of the beginning of the adhesive tape industry. In the 20th century, in 1925, the United States 3M company successfully developed and developed a viscotape with a shielding function. For the first time, the application area of viscotape was expanded to the areas of box packaging and transportation, and the market demand increased significantly, contributing to the industry. The first major development. During the Second World War, the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, and Japan developed adhesive bands for the synthesis of polymer polyisobutylene-polyethylene ether, polyterpene, etc.; From 1945 to 1952, the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, and Japan all developed PVC, PE embalming adhesive tape and EVA, acrylate, and acetal adhesive tape; The United States developed organosilicon pressure sensitive adhesive tape and conductive adhesive tape in 1956 and 1957 respectively; In 1960, 3M Corporation of the United States developed non-woven fabrics to make pneumatic external adhesive tapes and thermal melt pressure sensitive tape. Since then, with the improvement of polymerization and production processes of polymer synthetic materials such as butyl rubber, ethyl-propyl rubber, and Silicon rubber, high-performance special rubber adhesive bands based on special rubber have begun to emerge.

Throughout the history of development, the adhesive tape has expanded from basic functions such as sealing, connecting, fixing, and shielding to a variety of complex functions such as waterproof, conductive, insulated, anti-ultraviolet, and heat-conducting. It has gradually evolved from the traditional adhesive material manufacturing industry into a new material industry with high scientific and technological content, wide application fields, and many downstream subdivision industries. In the future, high performance will become the trend of development of the adhesive belt industry, and the proportion of high-performance adhesive belt in the entire adhesive belt market will continue to increase.

With the maturation of the adhesive belt production technology and the promotion of the application market, the global adhesive belt market scale has continued to grow in recent years, and the performance of the high-performance special rubber adhesive belt market is particularly outstanding. According to statistics from the European Adhesive Belt Industry Association, in 2013, the global adhesive tape market totaled 39.3 billion square meters, and the market size was approximately US$ 40.5 billion. Between 2013 and 2018, global market sales of adhesives are expected to grow at an average annual rate of 5 per cent and sales at an average annual rate of 6.5 per cent. Among them, the growth rate of special tape such as high-performance special rubber adhesive tape will be in the leading position in the subdivision market, and the annual sales growth rate is expected to reach 5.4 %.
