AFB™ acrylic foam bond
AFB™ acrylic foam bond by Avery Dennison is a specially formulated adhesive tape ideal for diverse industrial applications demanding a high level of bonding strength. Our tapes are engineered to provide strong adhesion to surfaces including PC, ABS, PMMA, and metal, ensuring superior tack and bonding performance.
Tapes that offer high bonding strength
Acrylic foam is viscoelastic, with flow and self-adhesion properties offering excellent adhesion to a wide range of substrates. The foam’s unique chemistry provides exceptional durability, and temperature resistance greater than that of PE foam. Finally, acrylic foam tapes are suitable for a wide range of component assembly, mounting, and fixation applications in appliances, electronic devices, signage, and graphics.
Technical highlights of AFB™ acrylic foam bonding tapes
