Product Description
LLINQTAPE PIT1A-ESD-Black Series is a high-temperature resistant, antistatic treated polyimide tape with electro-static discharge mounted with an acrylic adhesive. It is designed for both permanent and temporary bonding in many high-temperature applications. This tape has the same mechanical properties as our standard PIT1A-Series products but is black and has a 1µm conductive polymer that provides electro-static discharge and makes the tape anti-static.
LINQTAPE PIT1A-ESD-Black Series tapes get their conductivity by being carbon-loaded. As such the film provides both thermal conductivity as well as antistatic control with a surface resistance of less than 10E9 ohms per square. This product is an alternative to Kapton XC film with an acrylic adhesive layer.
We are moving on to discontinue this SKU and move on to a solution with a release liner. The price is almost the same. This will ensure better protection of the adhesive from pressure and from drying under nonstandard storage conditions.
Technical Specifications
| General Properties | |
| Adhesive Layer Adhesive Layer A layer that is applied to one surface or both to bind items together and resist their separation | Acrylic |
| Adhesive Thickness Adhesive Thickness Adhesive thickness indicates the thickness of an adhesive layer. It refers to the adhesive thickness of a single side so for double sided tapes it always needs to be multiplied. | 38.1 µm |
| Chemistry Type | Polyimide |
| Color Color The color | Black |
| Film Thickness Film Thickness Film thickness is the thickness of a backing film without taking into account any coatings or adhesive layers. It is measured in micron and the conversion factor to mil is 0.039. | 25.4 µm |
| Release Liner Release Liner A paper or plastic-based film sheet used to prevent a sticky surface from prematurely adhering | None |
| Single or Double-Sided Adhesive Single or Double-Sided Adhesive Describes whether a tape is single- or double-sided. If it is single-sided, it has adhesive only on one side of the backing film. If it is double-sided, then it has adhesive on both sides of the backing film. | Single-Sided |
| Special Layer | Antistatic Polymer Coating |
| Mechanical Properties | |
| Adhesion Strength Adhesion Strength Adhesion is the bond strength measurement of a coating to a substrate. When an adhesive is bonded to an item or surface, numerous physical, mechanical and chemical forces come into play, which may have an effect on each other. | 25 Oz/in |
| Elongation Elongation Elongation is the process of lengthening something. It is a percentage that measures the initial, unstressed, length compared to the length of the material right before it breaks. It is commonly referred to as Ultimate Elongation or Tensile Elongation at break. | 55 % |
| Tensile Strength (Thin Film) Tensile Strength (Thin Film) Tensile strength determines the resistance of a material to break under tension and it measures how much elongating load (or tensile stress) it can handle before fracture. To make it simple, it measures how much force we have to apply when pulling apart a material before it breaks. | 53.391 N/cm |
| Electrical Properties | |
| Breakdown Voltage Breakdown Voltage Breakdown voltage is the minimum voltage necessary to force an insulator to conduct some amount of electricity. It is the point at which a material ceases to be an insulator and becomes a resistor that conducts electricity at some proportion of the total current. After dielectric breakdown, the material may or may not behave as an insulator any more because of the molecular structure alteration. The current flow tend to create a localised puncture that totally alters the dielectric properties of the material. This electrical property is thickness dependent and is the maximum amount of voltage that a dielectric material can withstand before breaking down. The breakdown voltage is calculated by multiplying the dielectric strength of the material times the thickness of the film. | 6500 V |
| Dielectric Strength Dielectric Strength Dielectric strength is measured in kV per mm and is calculated by the Breakdown voltage divided by the thickness of the tested material. Those two properties go hand in hand and while Breakdown voltage is always thickness dependent, dielectric strength is a general material property. As an example, the dielectric strength of Polyimide is 236 kV/mm. If we place 1mm of Polyimide between two electrodes, it will act as an insulator until the voltage between the electrodes reaches 236 kV. At this point it will start acting as a good conductor, causing sparks, potential punctures and current flow. | 256 kV/mm |
| Thermal Properties | |
| Temperature Resistance Temperature Resistance Temperature resistance is the maximum temperature that the material or product can withstand for a period of time. The temperatures listed should be considered as guidelines for an operating temperature of about 30 minutes. Typically, the material can withstand much longer times at temperatures about 20°C lower and can withstand much higher temperatures for short, intermittent times. | 155 ˚C |
| Other Properties | |
| RoHS Compliant RoHS Compliant RoHS is a product level compliance based on a European Union Directive which restricts the Use of certain Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment (RoHS). Products compliant with this directive do not exceed the allowable amounts of the following restricted materials: lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls (PBB) and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE), with some limited exemptions | Yes |
| VOC-Free (100% solids content) VOC-Free (100% solids content) VOC means Volatile Organic compound. VOCs are evaporating molecules and are literally everywhere around us. Our scents are volatile organic compounds, most of the things that we smell are VOC etc. So what do we mean when we state that a product is VOC free? A VOC free product, according to the FTC is one where: 1)VOCs have not been intentionally added to the product. 2)The presence of VOCs at that level does not cause material harm that consumers typically associate with VOCs, including but not limited to, harm to the environment or human health. 3)The presence of VOCs at that level does not result in concentrations higher than would be found at background levels in the ambient air. | Yes |
