Best Practices for 3M Adhesive Transfer Tape 9672LE
-
Surface Preparation
For maximum bond strength, the surface should be thoroughly cleaned and dried. Typical cleaning solvents are heptane or isopropyl alcohol.
-
Application
Bond strength can also be improved with firm application pressure and moderate heat, from 100°F to 130°F (38°C to 54°C), causing the adhesive to develop intimate contact with the bonding surface.
Ideal tape application temperature range is 70°F to 100°F (21°C to 38°C). Initial tape application to surfaces at temperatures below 50°F (10°C) is not recommended for most pressure-sensitive adhesives because the adhesive becomes too firm to adhere readily. However, once properly applied, low temperature holding is generally satisfactory.
