Application Techniques 1. Bond strength is
dependent upon the
amount of adhesive-to-
surface contact developed.
Firm application pressure
develops better adhesive
contact & thus improves
bond strength.
2. To obtain optimum
adhesion, the bonding
surfaces must be clean dry
and well unified. A typical
surface cleaning solvent is
isopropyl alcohol. Use
proper safety precautions
for handling solvents.
3. Ideal tape application
temperature range is 21°C
to 38°C (70°F to 100°F).
Initial tape application to
surfaces at temperatures
below 10°C (50°F) is not
recommended because the
adhesive becomes too firm
to adhere readily. However
once properly applied low
temperature holding is
generally satisfactory.
