Technique for measuring magnetic tape interlayer adhesion

Technique measures interlayer adhesion in spacecraft data storage tape to avoid blocking. An unwind force is exerted on the spool, and the displacement before breakaway of the weighted outer layer is used to calculate the peel-off force necessary. This technique also can have terrestrial applications.
