GENERAL INFORMATION
| A 1.0 mil. optically clear laminating tape with 2000MP acrylic adhesive for ease of processing and improved bubble resistance. This product also consists of two film liners for optimum adhesive smoothness and differential release for ease of processing and protection from contamination. 8161 tape is free of birefringence with no film carrier and is wound on plastic cores and wrapped in plastic to eliminate paper fiber contamination. Tape is inspected to reduce the occurrence of bubbles, dirt, gels and other optical distortions. Adhesive withstands environmental, (temperature), tests under conditions specified, (see features), without any deterioration in visible appearance, physical integrity or optical performance. Over the entire test duration, there were no changes in transmission over the visible spectrum. See 3M data sheet for Reflective-Corrected Total Luminous Transmittance vs. Wavelength charts and also Processing Description. |
