This formaldehyde-free tape system is part of Adchem's 300 series. It uses the quick-stick properties found in rubber-based systems and the temperature performance of acrylic systems. It offers maximum performance at a lower price, with a differential caliper coating of 1.7 mils on the exposed side and 1.3 mils on the liner side, and typical peel values of 72 oz-inch width on the exposed side and 64 oz-inch on the liner side. It has many liner options including 55-lb densified Kraft, 74-lb polycoated paper, 12-point board and a 2-mil PET liner. It is made for substrate-bonding applications, and is useful for low surface energy materials and foams such as cross-linked polyethylene, low perms, ethers and esters.

On February 21, join Design News senior editor Charles Murray for a wide-ranging discussion, "Embedded Angles for Medical Products," which will explore the latest developments in medical electronics. The discussion will examine advances in medical device technology and offer an inside look at the embedded electronics behind it.
