3M VHB Adhesive Transfer Tapes with Adhesive 100MP F9460PC F9469PC F9473PC Technical Data April, 2013 Product Description 3M VHB Adhesive Transfer Tapes F9460PC, F9469PC and F9473PC utilize the 3M High Performance Acrylic Adhesive 100MP, which has excellent long term holding power with much higher adhesion strength than typical pressure sensitive adhesive systems. These 3M VHB Adhesive Transfer Tapes are transparent and are ideal for use in many interior and exterior industrial applications to replace rivets, spot welds, liquid adhesives, and other permanent fasteners. 3M VHB Adhesive Transfer Tapes Construction Products F9460PC F9469PC F9473PC Information Adhesive Thickness 0.002 in. 0.005 in. 0.010 in.

Properties For engineers who have to use adhesive properties for modeling and analysis purpose, we 2 suggest a Youngs modulus of 4.5 x 10 kPA (measured at 23C & 1 Hz) and a Poissons ratio of 0.499. For detailed adhesive modulus and damping properties, please refer to the nomograph for 3M VHB Adhesive Transfer Tapes, which is available upon request through our technical service group. The nomograph presents adhesive modulus and damping properties as functions of temperature and frequency.

Properties and Performance These 3M VHB Adhesive Transfer Tapes are made from the same adhesive Characteristics system and are thermoplastic in nature, becoming softer as temperature increases and firmer as temperature decreases. As the adhesive becomes firmer, the adhesion performance generally increases. At low temperatures (lower than -40F -40C ), the 3M VHB Adhesive Transfer Tapes become very firm and glassy the ability to absorb impact energy is reduced. In contrast, adhesion strength reduces with increasing temperatures. Typical adhesive strength properties at room temperatures are shown below. 3M VHB Adhesive Transfer Tapes Products F9460PC F9469PC F9473PC Peel Adhesion to 7.0 lb./in. 8.0 lb./in. 9.0 lb./in.
