Fusing Press Settings to Interlining Peel Strength

Temperature acts exponentially, pressure and dwell as weak power laws. A cold press cannot be squeezed back into specification.

The model has no upper limit, and a real fusing press does — past the adhesive's window the resin strikes through to the face, the shell glazes, and peel falls rather than rises. Fit the three coefficients across the usable window only, and confirm with a peel test on the actual shell and interlining pair.
