TECHNICAL DATA SHEET

Scotch Brand VHB Acrylic Foam Joining Product

Y-4950(1.14mm) Y-4930 (0.64mm)

1.Product Description:

VHB Acrylic Foam Joining is double coated acrylic foam with acrylic pressure sensitive adhesive on both sides, and has excellent static shear, peel adhesion and resistance to solvents, UV light and elevated temperature.

2. Construction:

3. Advantages:

- High peel strength

- Flexible joining

- Pressure sensitive type adhesive

- High seal performance

- Excellent durability

4. Application Technique

1.  Clean up oil, water and dust on the bonding surface.

2.  Add pressure using press equipment or steel roller.

3.  Initial bond strength decreases at less than 5℃. If initial bond strength is desired, heating VHB and the bonding surface is necessary.

Density: Cut tape specimen 1×3”, measure thickness, determine the mass of

the specimen. Calculate the density from volume and mass.

Foam Tensile strength and elongation:

Cut the specimen to be tested, using the dumbbell cutter (JIS #3).

Remove the liner from the sample. Extend the sample at

500mm/min. Measure the tensile strength and elongation at break.
