Product Overview
Strong and Powerful
Not only does 3M™ UV Light Detectable Ultra High Temperature Adhesive Transfer Tape 9085UV have excellent holding power, but it also has adhesion strength significantly higher than typical pressure sensitive tapes. These adhesive transfer tapes are ideal for use in many industrial applications subjected to higher temperature environments. Typical examples are automotive under-hood applications that require both higher processing and operating temperatures. Other areas include printed circuit boards and heat sink bonding in many electronics applications subjected to high solder reflow temperatures. A unique benefit of 9085UV is the fluoresce agent that allows for easy visual inspection with a black light during converting and assembly.
Recommended Applications
- Automotive under-hood
- Flexible printed circuit (FPC)
- FR4
- Electronics
- Solder reflow
Adhesive Transfer Tape for Ultra High Temps
Thermoplastic in nature, 3M™ UV Light Detectable Ultra High Temperature Adhesive Transfer Tape 9085UV becomes softer as temperature increases and firmer as temperature decreases. As the adhesive becomes firmer, the adhesion performance generally increases. At low temperatures (lower than -40°F [-40°C]), the tapes become very firm and glassy; the ability to absorb impact energy is reduced. In contrast, adhesion strength reduces with increasing temperatures. This ultra-high temperature tape boasts 540°F (280°C) short-term heat resistance and 350°F (177°C) long term temperature tolerance. The ideal tape application temperature range is 70°F to 100°F (21°C to 38°C).
What are Adhesive Transfer Tapes?
Adhesive transfer tapes are rolls of pressure sensitive adhesive pre-applied to a special release liner. For application, the tape is simply pressed, adhesive side down, to a surface and the liner is peeled off. A variety of adhesive properties and liners are available to meet requirements for applications such as nameplate attachment to high surface energy (HSE) metals and medium surface energy (MSE) plastics, appliance graphic overlays that perform in high temperatures, signs, posters, banners, and more.
