Types of PET Adhesive Tape

PET double sided adhesive tape is based on a PET backing and is double coated with a strong acrylic adhesive. This tape can also be provided with a release paper to allow die-cutting. PET double sided adhesive tape offers excellent adhesion and shear strength and provides excellent resistance to plasticizer migration, chemicals, heat, and UV degradation. This tape is designed for bonding and sealing electronic components. It is used for a variety of industrial applications, such as electronic packaging and labeling.

PET adhesive tape comes in several different types and may be made from silicone, acrylic, or rubber-based adhesive formulas. The selection of these tapes depends on their properties and costs. Acrylic adhesives are synthetically made and have good UV strength, while rubber adhesives are made by mixing different compounds with synthetic rubber. The latter two tape types are less expensive than acrylic, but exhibit higher initial tack quality and lower UV resistance. Despite its high cost, the acrylic tape is the best choice for most uses.

Single-sided polyester film adhesive tapes have a polyester backing with a silicone or rubber adhesive. These tapes are designed for high-temperature applications and are characterized by low thickness, high tensile strength, and excellent age resistance. They are commonly used in electronics, high-temperature masking, and jointing applications. And with their high tensile strength and sturdiness, polyester film adhesive tape is a great choice for high-temperature applications.
