Best Practices for 3M 9505 Adhesive Transfer Tape-5 mil
-
Surface Preparation
For maximum bond strength (during installation of the final part) the surface should be thoroughly cleaned and dried. Typical cleaning solvents are heptane (for oily surfaces) or isopropyl alcohol for plastics. Use reagent grade solvents since common household materials like rubbing alcohol frequently contain oils to minimize the drying affect on skin. These oils can interfere with the performance of a pressure-sensitive adhesive. Also, use disposable wipes, that do not contain oils, to remove the cleaning solvents.
Note: Carefully read and follow cleaning solvent manufacturer's precautions and directions for use. These cleaning recommendations may not be compliant with the rules of certain Air Quality Management Districts in California, consult applicable rules before use.
-
Application
It is necessary to provide pressure during lamination (10-20 pli recommended) and during final part installation (10-15 psi) to allow the adhesive to come into direct contact with the substrate. Using a hard edged plastic tool, which is the full width of the laminated part, helps to provide the necessary pressure at the point of lamination.
Heat can increase bond strength when bonding to metal parts (generally this same increase is observed at room temperature over longer times, weeks). For plastics parts, the bond strength is not enhanced with the addition of heat.
Application is not recommended if the surface temperature is below 50°F (10°C) because the adhesive becomes too firm to adhere readily. Once properly applied, at the recommended application temperature, low temperature holding is generally satisfactory (please refer to section VII of the Typical physical properties and performance characteristics).

Curing
Heat can increase bond strength when bonding to metal parts (generally this same increase is observed at room temperature over longer times, weeks). For plastic parts, the bond strength is not enhanced with the addition of heat.
