3M™ Adhesive and Tape classifications
3M™ Adhesive and Tape classifications – you really can’t say “glue” any more At one time, adhesive and glue were used synonymously. In industry today, however, designers and engineers are using terms like two-part low-odor acrylic, high bond tape, PUR systems, cyanoacrylate, and more. Glue is now considered to be something sticky which is no longer a characteristic of many adhesives.
Non-structural adhesives bond with a physical change.
3M adhesives can be classified in several ways.
Non-structural adhesives vary in strength from repositionable to strength equal to or greater than the strength of the substrate being bonded. These adhesives are typically less than 1000 psi and bond materials in cushions, gaskets, insulation, veneers, and general assembly. 3M formulations include the following:
Classify by form 3M adhesives are available as liquids, pastes, tapes, films, and shaped solids. Each has characteristics to be considered for application effectiveness and efficiency.
• Hot melt adhesives melt and flow under heat to wet the substrates and make bonds quickly upon cooling. Products are available with a variety of characteristics such as short set times, sprayable formulas, and permanent PSA properties. Applications range from sealing to bonding automotive interior trim.
Liquids and pastes readily fill voids to enhance mechanical adhesion. Many liquids can be sprayed to cover large areas. Films and pressure sensitive tapes offer advantages unique to their form: • Uniform thickness throughout the joint. • Confinement of the adhesive to the immediate bonding area. • Clean bonding without dripping or overflow. • Minimum adhesive waste. • Die-cut into complex shapes to facilitate bonding of complex parts or parts with narrow bonding surfaces.
• Rubber adhesives are solvent-based or water-based and solidify through evaporation of the carrier. Products are designed for adhesion to various substrates, application methods, and environmental resistance of the bonded product. • Contact bond adhesives are usually rolled, brushed, or sprayed on the two surfaces to be mated and permitted to become dry to the touch with a variety of open times. When the surfaces are pressed together, near ultimate bond strength is achieved.
Hot melts are supplied as solid sticks, cartridges, pellets, or similar shapes. Handling and storage is easy and neat.
Classify by strength
Pressure sensitive adhesives
Another classification for industrial applications is by relative strength and solidification process. Generally, those adhesives that bond through a chemical reaction are stronger than those that bond through a physical change.
Pressure sensitive adhesives (PSAs) found in 3M tapes grip immediately to mating surfaces. With dwell time, the adhesive conforms to surface irregularities.
Structural adhesives bond by chemical reaction.
3M hybrid classifications
3M™ Structural Strength Adhesives bond the load-bearing parts of a product. As a rule of thumb, structural strength adhesives reach a minimum of 1,000 psi overlap shear strength. 3M formulations include the following:
• Curing hot melts (Polyurethane Reactive [PUR] adhesives) are moisture-curing urethanes that apply like a hot melt adhesive but cool to bond strength usually associated with two-part structural adhesives.
• Epoxy adhesives are available in one and two-part liquids and pstes. Of all 3M adhesives, these provide the highest strength and elevated temperature resistance.
• Reclosable fasteners combine adhesive and mechanical fastening principles. Pressure sensitive adhesive permanently bonds two reclosable mating strips to the substrates that need to be opened and closed multiple times.
• Acrylic adhesives are two-part liquids and pastes to bond the widest variety of substrates including hard-to-bond plastics and oily metals. The distinction is high strength bonding without the surface preparation needed for epoxies and urethanes. • Urethane adhesives are generally lower cost two-part liquids and pastes that cure quickly to an elastic bond in applications requiring flexibility between dissimilar materials. Impact resistance is a distinctive characteristic. • Cyanoacrylate adhesives are high strength liquid formulations known as instant adhesives. On rigid plastic, glass, metal, rubber, and other low porosity substrates, they harden in seconds through reaction with surface moisture. • Anaerobic adhesives are liquids that cure to a tough plastic in the absence of oxygen and in the presence of metal. Typical applications include threadlocking, retaining, gasketing, and sealing.

Substrates and adhesion
Substrates and adhesion – a surface phenomenon, so know surfaces well Adhesives attach to the surfaces of two substrates, unlike a process that fuses substrates into a unified whole such as welding metal or solvent activation of plastics. In selecting a 3M adhesive or tape, surface condition must be considered: roughness, smoothness, porosity, coated, uncoated, cleanliness, flexibility, size of the part, and surface energy of the part.
energy, think of water on the unwaxed hood of a car. The unwaxed hood has high surface energy and water on the hood flows into puddles. In comparison, a waxed hood has low surface energy and the water beads up rather than flows out. Similar to water, adhesive on a high surface energy surface flows and “wets out” the surface. “Wetting out” is required to form a strong bond.
Adhesive paste, for example, flows readily into a rough surface for improved effective adhesion. Flexible materials such as paper or thin gauge metal can be bonded with a thin adhesive transfer tape. Large rigid parts with smooth clean surfaces can be bonded with a variety of 3M products ranging from double coated foam tapes to two-part structural adhesives. Some plastics have plasticizers which migrate to the surface and degrade the bond over time, so a plasticizer-resistant adhesive or tape is essential. If the substrate has been powder coat painted, the coating is the bonding surface rather than the substrate, and you would want to consider a 3M tape or adhesive developed specifically for that surface.
As a rule of thumb, the higher the surface energy, the greater the strength of adhesion. Specially formulated adhesives are available for low surface energy surfaces. The following illustrations and surface rankings give you an idea of relative surface energy. Regardless of surface energy, the substrate must be unified, dry, and clean to maximize adhesive contact.
Surface energy ranges from high to low. To illustrate the concept of surface

3M™ Bonding Tapes
Tape Selection Guide To help you make sure of finding the optimum tape for your particular application, you’ll want to consider several factors: rubber or acrylic adhesive, surface energy and contact, stress conditions, end use environment, and substrate characteristics such as size, rigidity, thickness, and weight.
Rubber or Acrylic Adhesive To make rubber adhesives, natural or synthetic rubbers are made tacky by mixing with various compounds. Individual elements do not change; components are simply mixed together to produce an adhesive. To make acrylic adhesives, plastic compounds are synthesized to obtain specific chemical structures that are tacky. Acrylics can be formulated to produce specific performance characteristics.
Rubber or Acrylic Adhesive 3M tapes and fasteners feature advanced 3M rubber or acrylic adhesive formulations. Each has characteristics that affect production and end use performance. Rubber Adhesives

3M™ Bonding Tapes Substrate characteristics that determine thin or thick tape
Substrate characteristics
You will find information on these two pages to help you narrow tape choices to two or three possibilities for evaluation and testing.
• Thin material
• Thick material
• Flexible material or small rigid parts
• Stiff or rigid material
First of all, define the substrates you want to bond. All substrates have characteristics that determine how well a substrate can be bonded with a particular adhesive for performance in a specific environment. Substrate characteristics such as thickness, rigidity, size, and weight will help determine your choice between two general groupings of 3M tapes: thin or thick. Each group has general performance characteristics. Thin and thick tapes are then further categorized into product lines each differentiated by specific performance characteristics.
• Lightweight
• Medium to heavy weight • Irregular surfaces

3M™ Bonding Tapes
3M™ VHB™ Tapes Replace rivets, screws and other mechanical fasteners For more than 25 years, industries worldwide have been using 3M™ VHB™ Tapes for high holding power in static and dynamic loads. Viscoelastic properties absorb shock and distribute stress evenly for bonding power that helps eliminate mechanical fastening in many jobs. In the ever growing product line, there are 3M™ VHB™ Tapes for bonding and sealing aluminum, steel, glass, painted and powder coated surfaces, and plastics such as acrylic and polycarbonate. Flexibility compensates for differential thermal expansion so you can even bond many dissimilar materials with confidence.
3M™ VHB™ Tapes securely bond stainless steel scuff strips to aluminum wing flaps despite extreme ground-to-air temperature swings of 150°F to -40°F (65°C to -40°C). 3M™ VHB™ Tapes bond the lens on contact in a fish finder and seal against water, moisture, salt, and more. Bonding power eliminates mechanical fasteners for a smooth, clean surface. Viscoelastic properties help absorb shock and vibration for bond reliability.
For ease of assembly and precise fit, die-cut 3M™ VHB™ Tapes bond and seal components throughout a GPS unit. For assembly efficiency, die-cut pieces of 3M™ VHB™ Tapes bond components in a waterresistant video camera case. The foam conforms to help seal the unit.
Mirrored ceiling panels are held in place with 3M™ VHB™ Tapes rather than screws. This helps maintain a clean, smooth appearance without distorting the reflective surfaces.
3M™ VHB™ Tape bonds on contact with no drying time or fixturing and saves processing steps such as drilling, screwing, welding, cleanup, and refinishing.

Flexible Vinyl
3M™ Bonding Tapes
3M™ Double Coated Foam Tapes for Mounting Flexible foam carriers fill gaps and help bond irregular surfaces In bonding rough or irregular surfaces, 3M™ Double Coated Foam Tapes fill gaps and distribute stress uniformly over the bonded area. Depending on the specific tape, the result is a bond line that seals, cushions and damps vibration, resists impact, withstands a wide temperature range, and provides good insulating qualities. To meet your requirements, select from rubber or acrylic adhesive, and a choice of different foam carriers: urethane, vinyl, elastomeric, polyethylene, or acrylic.
To replace screws and liquid adhesives, 3M™ Multipurpose Mounting Tape 4016 bonds immediately to many indoor surfaces, even permanently mounting a plastic soap dispenser to a mirror.
To permanently mount a coat rack to a textured wall, 3M™ Extra Thick Multipurpose Mounting Tape 4008 bonds on contact and fills gaps between the surfaces.
3M™ Double Coated Urethane Foam Tapes bond plastic signs to painted cinder block. The foam fills gaps between irregular surfaces. Various foam thicknesses are available for surface conformance based on the degree of roughness.
3M™ Double Coated Polyethylene Foam Tapes effectively bond plastic extrusion price channels to grocery shelves.

3M™ Bonding Tapes
3M™ Double Coated Tapes A variety of carriers for easy handling and dispensing 3M™ Double Coated Tapes are engineered with adhesive on both sides of paper, film or tissue. This increases the dimensional stability of the adhesive for easy handling and application. Depending on your production volume, you can apply tape by hand or with automatic highvolume dispensers. Select paper, polyester film or other synthetic carriers to help meet your special needs. Different adhesives – rubber, silicone or acrylic – can be on opposite sides of the carrier to join different materials. Your choice of properties include high temperature resistance, conformability to irregular surfaces, high initial adhesion, high shear strength, and more.
With differential adhesive, the silicone adhesive side of 3M™ Double Coated Tape adheres to a silicone rubber keypad. Acrylic adhesive side adheres to a plastic base.
For precise fit, 3M™ Double Coated Tape is pre-applied to foam gasketing materials and then die-cut to size. This helps increase dimensional stability of the part to facilitate assembly.

3M™ Bonding Tapes
3M™ Removable/Repositionable Tapes Versatility for many substrates on on-off and open-close applications Some 3M™ Removable/Repositionable Tapes feature a “permanent” adhesive on one side of a film or tissue carrier and a removable/ repositionable adhesive on the other side. Release liner Repositionable pressure sensitive adhesive Carrier “Permanent” pressure sensitive adhesive
Other tapes in the line offer different levels of adhesion on each side. And others feature equal adhesive strength on each side for reliable attachment but with easy separation for repositioning or multiple openings and closings.You can join substrates that include glass, metals, wood, paper, painted surfaces, and many plastics.
3M™ Removable/Repositionable Tape seals hosiery bags for shipment and display but also lets the customer open and reclose the bag as necessary.
With linered versions, you can initially join one side to a surface while the other side is covered with the liner, ready to be joined later to the second surface. Linerless versions are used for bonding both surfaces at the same time.
High tack side of 3M™ Removable/Repositionable Tape 9415 “permanently” adheres to cores for winding up paper or film. Low tack side releases the paper or film when unwinding.

3M™ Bonding Tapes
3M™ Adhesive Transfer Tapes Neat, precise application and high performance in a variety of applications 3M™ Adhesive Transfer Tapes are rolls of pressure sensitive adhesive pre-applied to a special release liner. For application, the tape is simply pressed, adhesive side down, to a surface and the liner is peeled off. A variety of adhesive properties and liners are available to meet requirements for applications such as nameplate attachment to high and low surface energy plastics, appliance graphic overlays that perform in high temperatures, foam gasketing, web splicing, and more.
Release liner Pressure sensitive adhesive With high cohesive strength, 3M™ Adhesive 200MP bonds aggressively with excellent temperature resistance. Meets the nonfogging specifications of the automotive industry.
For bonding flexible vinyl in such applications as door gaskets, 3M™ Adhesive Transfer Tape F9465PC resists the effect of plasticizers that tend to migrate from the vinyl.
3M™ Lami nating Adhesive 300LSE is the solution for low energy surfaces such as polyolefins and powder coat paint. Graphics hold securely and stand up to tough environmental conditions.

3M™ Bonding Tapes
3M™ Extended Liner Tapes Versatile pressure sensitive adhesive on easy-to-remove liners 3M™ Extended Liner Tapes offer the adhesive versatility of 3M tapes but with liners wider than the adhesive. This leaves an easy-to-lift edge for convenient and easy liner removal. With the variety of adhesives, you have a selection of performance characteristics such as high tack for coated papers and plastics, low tack for temporary attachment, high temperature resistance, and more. Apply manually or with equipment matched to your production volume requirements.
3M™ Extended Liner Tapes are available with a release liner wider than the adhesive. This provides an easy-to-grab edge for convenient liner removal.
Depending on adhesive type, 3M™ Extended Liner Tapes are applied to envelopes, polybags, boxes, or tubes. User simply peels off liner to expose the adhesive for an immediate, secure closure.
A variety of automatic and semi-automatic equipment is available for higher volume applications. For example, apply tape to business forms, literature, bounce back and business reply cards.
3M™ Extended Liner Tapes 450XL, 450EK and 465XL immediately bond product information “outserts” to polyethylene bottles. Holds tightly but can be cleanly removed.

3M™ Sound Damping Foils Reduce noise and vibration in many applications With pressure sensitive viscoelastic acrylic polymer on dead soft aluminum foil, 3M™ Sound Damping Foils quiet noise and reduce vibration in many areas for Aerospace, Automotive, Appliances, Construction, and MRO (Maintenance and Repair). • Reduce structure-borne noise in metal and composite panels and support structures • Optimized acrylic converts vibrational energy to negligible heat that readily dissipates • Reduce vibrational fatigue to decrease wear and tear on parts and lower the risk of part loosening and displacement
Applied with a 3M™ PA-1 Wiper to the inside of a car door, 3M™ Damping Foil 2552 effectively damps noise and vibration with as little as 10% surface coverage. Optimized acrylic on a dead soft aluminum constraining layer converts vibrational energy to negligible heat that readily dissipates.
• Effective damping with as little as 10% surface coverage • Pressure sensitive for easy self-fixturing application • Long aging performance • Good performance over a wide temperature range • Linered construction provides ability to die-cut product
3M™ Damping Foil 435 between the ribs and stringers of an aircraft fuselage helps reduce vibrational fatigue and noise inside the passenger cabin.
3M™ Damping Foil 2552 on the inside of a washing machine reduces structure-borne noise and reduces vibrational fatigue to decrease the risk of part loosening and displacement.

3M™ Flexographic Mounting Systems For halftone work where dot gain is a concern, a softer tape optimizes reproduction. When solids and dots share the plate, a combination tape can properly balance the result. When your customer wants solid ink and crisp lines, you’ll want firm, high density mounting tape. From the wide 3M selection, you can find the adhesives, foams, and thicknesses for the print quality that customers demand and expect. You’ll also find choices to meet your handling requirements for: • Mounting ease and positioning accuracy • Easy, clean removal from plate and cylinder
E-Series Tapes with Easy Mount Adhesive On easy with reduced air entrapment Unlike flat or pebbled liners, E-Series liners are crosshatched on both sides with unique microchannels that allow air to flow throughout the adhesive. Improved airflow virtually eliminates air bubble problems for easier
application. Air releases from between the tape and plate, and between the tape and cylinder or sleeve for virtually bubble-free mounting. Setup is faster with smoother surfaces for cleaner print quality and higher productivity.
EH-Series Adhesive to hold the edge on small diameter cylinders 3M EH-Series Tapes combine the air-release of 3M E-Series Tapes with higher plate side adhesion to resist edge lifting on cylinder diameters as small as 2”. Microscopic view of adhesive surface measured with interferometer
Easy Mount Adhesive
Pebbled Liner
Flat Liner
Stays on with reduced edge-lifting Exclusive 3M plate-side adhesive maintains tight contact between tape and plate to dramatically reduce edge lifting. Saves the prep time, downtime, and labor of sealing plate edges.
Peels off easily to reduce plate damage E-series tapes grip tightly but peel off so easily you can virtually eliminate plate back treatment. You’re less likely to damage plates, so you can save time, labor, and money
Bubble-free print quality • Prevent blemishes in screen and process printing • Help assure proper registration
