3M™ UV Activated Tape 30025 is a translucent, UV-curable, high-strength bonding tape that handles like a pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) before activation. Featuring a middle carrier film for easy converting and application before curing, this tape provides good impact resistance to meet industry drop test requirements and offers high bond strength while ensuring good removability. With the added benefits of initial tackiness and very low shrinkage, 3M™ UV Activated Tape 30025 is an ideal bonding option for opaque and transparent substrates, as well as electronic components like displays, frames, speakers, and wearables.
3M™ UV Activated Films and Tapes combines the benefits of three different bonding technologies into one powerful adhesive. They provide stronger bonds than standard tapes; they’re easier to apply than liquid adhesives; and they activate with light, unlike heat-activated films. Prior to UV activation, these films and tapes are stable and tacky at room temperature and can be easily converted into precision die-cut parts. Once activated, bond strength develops at room temperature, achieving immediate green strength and semi-structural bond strength within 24 hours. These properties make them an ideal choice for bonding small components where high temperatures and pressures are a concern. Specifically, 3M™ UV Activated Films and Tapes are an excellent option for applications such as laptop track pads, fingerprint sensors, smartphone front cameras, automotive displays, enclosure bonding, heat-sensitive components, and more.
