Polyimide Tapes & Films
This category supports CAPLINQ Polyimide Tapes & Films. Polyimide film, the generic version of Kapton film has many uses. It is typically more heat-resistant that polyester tapes and films. Therefore, the category delivers news and information designed to engage professionals that have questions or comments concerning the proper use and applications of polyimide tapes and films in their industry.
Products in this category include:
- Very Thin Polyimide Tape with Silicone Adhesive (very popular)
- 5-mil Polyimide Film with no Adhesive
- Antistatic Polyimide Tape with Acrylic Adhesive
- Double-sided Polyimide Tape with Release Liner
Furthermore, examples of typical topics discussed in this category include:
- When to use double-side polyimide tape over single-sided
- UL-certification of polyimide films and tapes
- Unexpected uses and applications of polyimide films and tapes
As a result, guests are invited to discuss their applications, ask questions and offer comments and feedback as they relate to polyimide films and tapes.
