What Is Acrylic Kapton Tape?
Acrylic Kapton Tape is a high-performance adhesive tape made from polyimide (Kapton®) film coated with a pressure-sensitive acrylic adhesive. It combines the superior thermal stability, electrical insulation, and chemical resistance of Kapton with the strong bonding and long-term aging resistance of acrylic adhesives.
This makes it the ideal choice for high-temperature masking, PCB solder wave masking, battery insulation, and electronic component protection.
Key Benefits of Acrylic Kapton Tape
- High Temperature Resistance: Withstands continuous temperatures up to 100°C, making it ideal for soldering and thermal processing.
- Excellent Electrical Insulation: Offers high dielectric strength, essential for PCBs, flexible circuits, and lithium battery modules.
- Strong Acrylic Adhesion: Provides excellent initial tack and long-term adhesion on a wide variety of surfaces including metals, plastics, and composites.
- Clean Removal: Leaves no residue after removal, even after high-heat exposure, protecting sensitive components and surfaces.
- Chemical & Solvent Resistance: Maintains performance in harsh environments where other tapes may degrade.
Common Applications
- PCB wave solder masking and reflow solder protection
- Lithium-ion battery cell wrapping and module insulation
- Motor and transformer insulation in high-temperature environments
- Flexible circuit board bonding and component protection
- Die-cut parts for electronics, automotive, and aerospace applications
Why Choose Acrylic Kapton Tape Over Silicone-Based Options?
While silicone adhesive Kapton tapes offer higher peak temperature resistance, acrylic-based Kapton tapes provide better long-term adhesion, lower cost, and less silicone residue, making them ideal for mass production and automated processes.
- They are especially preferred in:
- Consumer electronics
- EV battery assembly
- High-speed SMT and PCB processes
