Avery Dennison Performance Tapes introduced four new tape constructions to its 2023 Core Series Portfolio, which features a full breadth of adhesive technologies in a variety of tape constructions to enable simplified product selection and rapid quoting.
The product updates include a low VOC acrylic well suited for interior, foam bonding automotive applications, an acrylic and rubber differential construction, and a single coated foil tape that performs well in high moisture conditions.
The new products added to the portfolio include:
•Avery Dennison FT 8299
This is a double coated tissue with a high-performance low VOC acrylic that is ideal for bonding to polyester urethane, polyether urethane and skinned foams. The product meets most automotive OEM requirements. Typical applications include automotive interiors (door pillar cloth, carpet fixation, insulation, arm rests), foam bonding, and interior noise, vibration, and harshness.
•Avery Dennison FBD 8393 and FBD 8393 12 PT
FBD 8393 is a next generation, foam bonding differential tape construction designed for bonding a wide variety of foams and fabrics to low surface energy materials. The laminating side features a foam bonding acrylic adhesive, while the mounting side is coated with a high shear rubber adhesive. The laminating and mounting side adhesives each contain biocide to inhibit mold growth. Offered with a super calendered white Kraft release liner or a 12-pt. board.
• Avery Dennison FL 0833 PCK
FL0833 is a 3.0 mil aluminum foil featuring 2.0 mils of Cold Tough acrylic adhesive specially formulated with antimicrobial additives to inhibit bacteria and mold growth. The 5.0 mil adhesive foil tape offers the ability to be applied in cold temperatures as low as 0°F. While it is formulated to be Cold Tough, it can be used at virtually any temperature and will withstand temperatures as low as -35° or as high as 325°F. While designed to be permanent, FL 0833 is highly conformable with adhesive suitable for masking applications. This provides long-term durability and short-term removability (removes cleanly on metal or most plastic surfaces), while offering chemical resistance for harsh applications.
