tesa® ACXplus – The best performance for every task tesa® ACXplus – The core is the key The high performance of tesa® ACXplus is based on a special feature: viscoelasticity. Viscoelasticity describes a material performance which is defined by both elastic and viscous characteristics. The elastic restoring forces provide inner strength while the viscous part of the material behavior leads to relaxation of mechanical stresses. The tesa® ACXplus tape employs a special Bonding Power plus tesa ACX has a powerful bond on materials with different surface characteristics because the acrylic adhesive...

Which of your product needs can be solved by tesa® ACXplus ? Bonding of transparent and translucent materials For constructions that involve transparent or transluscent materials, an invisible bonding method is often an important optical design criterion. We recommend: tesa® ACXplus 705x – High Transparency For best results please consider: pply the tape in a very controlled manner to avoid air bubbles. A A thin film of water + detergent e.g. dish washing liquid on the substrate can facilitate an optimal application. Additionally, we recommend our assortment of dispensers and lamination equipment....

Bonding of hard-to-bond materials We recommend: tesa® ACXplus 706x – High Adhesion For best results please consider: Plastics can show high degrees of thermal elongation. Choose the optimal tape thickness accordingly. (Powder) coated materials are usually metals which can be heavy. Take this into account in your bonding area calculation. Materials with a lower surface energy are commonly known as hard-to-bond. This refers to (powder) coated surfaces as well as to many kinds of plastics that cause plasticizer migration.

Bonding of panels and reinforcement bars Panels are thin sheet materials, usually used to cover a certain sub-structure. Reinforcement bars are profiles with a specific geometry to stabilize a thin sheet material. For both, outdoor use and the exposure to extreme temperatures, UV, chemicals, solvents and cleaning agents are common. We recommend: tesa® ACXplus 707x – High Resistance For best results please consider: adhesive tape can be exposed to load bearing. The Calculate the bonding area accordingly and conduct relevant application tests. case of substrates with a low surface energy, make...

tesa® ACXplus – Intelligent Bonding tesa® ACXplus stands for Intelligent Bonding solutions. Compared to conventional fastening methods like bolting, riveting, liquid glueing or welding, the use of tesa® ACXplus tape can bring enormous process and design improvements. mechanical weakening No of substrates Better force distribution - Unlike rivets and screws, an adhesive bond distributes the force over a large area rather than transferring it at individual points. No drying times and post-processing Optical design improvement No corrosion and deformation Less maintenance needed Usage of thinner...
