Whether PE tape offers sun protection depends on its material and manufacturing process. Polyethylene (PE) itself has weak UV resistance, but its sun protection performance can be improved by adding UV inhibitors or compounding it with other materials. Ordinary PE tape is prone to aging and becoming brittle under direct sunlight, while modified PE tape can withstand longer periods of sun exposure.
Short-term outdoor use: Modified PE tape is suitable for short-term sun protection needs, such as temporarily securing sunshades.
Avoid high-temperature environments: Prolonged exposure to high temperatures may still cause a decrease in adhesive properties.
Color effect: Darker PE tape absorbs more UV rays than lighter ones, extending its lifespan.
