Conventional polyimide tapes can typically generate over 10,000 volts during use which can damage board mounted electronic components. 3M Low Static Polyimide Film Tape 5419 overcomes this problem without any of the typical drawbacks of conventional anti-static or static-free tapes (e.g., variable adhesion and opaqueness). At room temperature the properties of polyimide and polyester film are similar. However, as the temperature increases or decreases, the properties of the polyimide film are less affected than polyester. Polyimide film does not soften at elevated temperatures, thus, the film provides an excellent release surface at elevated temperatures. Gold tab protection during wave solder of printed circuit boards. RoHS compliant. Application Ideas Mask for printed circuit boards during wave solder or solder dip process. Used as release surface in fabrication of parts cured at elevated temperatures. Storage Store under normal conditions of 60 to 80F (16 to 27C) and 40 to 50% R.H. in the original carton. Shelf Life To obtain best performance, use this product within 3 years from date of manufacture. (2)
