Abstract

A water-soluble double-faced adhesive tape is provided which needs no release paper, permits web splicing without an increase in thickness at the spliced part, and permits spliced webs to run smoothly in a papermaking process, eliminating the possibility of web breaking. The tape includes a water-disintegratable substrate, a first water-soluble adhesive layer formed on one side of the substrate from one edge of the substrate, and a second water-soluble adhesive layer formed on the other side of the substrate from the other edge of the substrate, the two adhesive layers being positioned a distance apart greater than the web thickness plus twice the tape thickness plus an allowance such that they do not overlap in the width direction, with release layers preventing the adhesive layer from sticking to the substrate when the tape is wound up into a roll.
