Howdy all,

I'm considering substituting a PVC foam tape in place of a urethane foam tape. The issue is the risk of plasticizer migration from the PVC foam to the adjacent substrate. Question: do you think that the foam tape's acrylic PSA would act as a plasticizer barrier, which would block the migration of plasticizers from the PVC foam?
