Description
AeroZero® Heat Resistant Thermal Tape
AeroZero® Tape
Product Description
AeroZero® Tape consists of a 165 micron (6.5 mil) AeroZero® polyimide aerogel film with a 25.4 micron (1 mil) adhesive applied onto one side. The adhesive is a high-performance engineering grade silicone pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) with a release layer that is peeled off before application onto a substrate. Potential substrates include stainless steel, aluminum, glass, and polymer substrates such as polyimides, polyether ketones, polyurethanes, and polyesters. Typical use is thermal barrier/insulation of parts in the Aerospace, Defense and Electronic industries.
Application
Prior to peeling the release liner from the adhesive, ensure the surface is clean and free of loose particles. Standard application temperature is 25 °C (77 °F) and the recommended set time for optimal adhesion is 3 days prior to testing. The minimum application temperature is 10 °C (50 °F) and minimum set time is 24 hours before performing any tests. Increasing temperature and dwell time may increase adhesion strength.
