The 3M™ Double Coated Tape 9740 represents a leap forward in adhesive technology, tailored for applications demanding superior bonding strength and durability under challenging conditions. This 3.5 mil double-coated tape features a 0.5 mil (12 microns) polyester film core, meticulously coated on both sides with 1.5 mils (38 microns) of a high-shear acrylic adhesive. This innovative adhesive system is designed to offer exceptional bonding and conformability to both irregular and flat surfaces, making it highly effective for a variety of substrates, including those with low surface energy plastics.
- Advanced Adhesive Formula: The high shear acrylic adhesive ensures robust bonding, capable of withstanding high temperatures, shear forces, and the effects of plasticizers, ideal for performance-grade splicing tasks.
- Exceptional Conformability: Engineered to adhere to irregular surfaces as well as flat ones, this tape bonds effectively to plastics, metals, and decorative trims, providing versatility across applications.
- High Temperature Resistance: Specifically designed to perform in high-temperature environments, making it suitable for splicing applications in corrugation processes and other scenarios where heat resistance is critical.
- Plasticizer Resistance: Its resistance to plasticizers makes it an excellent choice for bonding materials that may exude oils or plasticizing agents, ensuring long-lasting adhesion.
- Optimal for High-Speed Splicing: The tape's durability and heat resistance properties make it ideal for high-speed flying splices, ensuring reliability in continuous operation environments.
Application Examples: The 3M™ Double Coated Tape 9740 is designed for scenarios requiring higher heat, shear, and plasticizer resistance. It is exemplary for bonding irregular surfaces, plastics, metal extrusions, decorative trims, and facilitating high-speed flying splices where heat resistance is paramount.
Application Techniques: Achieving optimal adhesion with the 3M™ Double Coated Tape 9740 involves ensuring that bonding surfaces are clean, dry, and well-unified. The application of firm pressure is recommended to enhance adhesive contact and thereby improve bond strength. For surface preparation, typical cleaning solvents like isopropyl alcohol or heptane are suggested to ensure the surfaces are ideal for bonding.
This tape not only delivers superior performance in demanding applications but also offers a reliable bonding solution across a wide range of materials, underscoring its versatility and effectiveness in industrial settings.
