In simple terms, a rubber based pressure-sensitive consists of a natural or synthetic rubber to which various tackifying resins are added along with plasticizers, antioxidants, pigments, and UV stabilizers. These formulations can be delivered to the coating machine dissolved in organic solvents, dispersed in water, or in molten form as a hot melt. Some synthetic elastomers are also curable by radiation such as UV or electron beam(EB).

What is self-amalgamating tape?
With all of the new products and electrical insulation kits currently on the market, the use of conventional electrical tapes has gone down. As a result, electricians today may not possess the taping skills that once were such an important part of their predecessors' work. Nevertheless, there is still good reason to master this craft — especially for those times when repairs are needed quickly and other products are simply not available.
Furthermore, PVC marking tape is highly customizable. It can be easily cut to size or shape, making it suitable for various applications. Companies can also choose to have custom text or symbols printed on the tape to convey specific messages or instructions.
