volzAcrylicFoam 76080 PV2 is a 0,80 mm thick, acrylic foam tape often used in automotive an industrial applications. Its fundamental conformable properties permit meticulous converting, providing superior bonding for applications that demand extreme precision. It demonstrates exceptional bonding to a wide variety of materials including metal, glass, ceramic, and plastics treated with corona, plasma or a primer. In a variety of applications, volzAcrylicFoam 76080 PV2 can be used to replace mechanical fasteners such as rivets, screws, weld or liquid adhesives.
Applications
- Automotive wheel trims, mirrors and tread plates
- Outdoor signage and window grilles
- White goods
- Mobile electronics bezel bonding
- Component mounting
Benefits
- Conformable
- Easy to die-cut
- Visco-elastic nature ensures strong bond which can absorb shock and stress
- Long-lasting bond for indoor and outdoor applications
- Excellent solvent, plasticizer, and moisture resistance
- 100% closed cell structure
Storage Conditions
The Rolls should be stored in their packaging protected from light and at a temperature between 15°C to 24°C, with a relative humidity of 50% +/- 30%. When using an adhesive tape stored below 15°C, it is advisable to keep the tape at room temperature for 24 hours to preserve its characteristics.

Benefits
- Conformable

- Visco-elastic nature ensures strong bond which can absorb shock and stress
- Long-lasting bond for indoor and outdoor applications
- Excellent solvent, plasticizer, and moisture resistance
- 100% closed cell structure
Application Instructions
- Make sure that the surfaces to be bonded are absolutely clean and free of dust and grease
- The best cleaning agent is a solvent such as isopropanol, which is applied with a clean cloth
- For optimum adhesion, apply sufficient pressure to the surface. A typical pressure value for good adhesive wetting is 100 kPa = 15PSI
- The adhesive is pressure sensitive. The best results are achieved with maximum surface contact under pressure
- After 20 minutes 50% of the bond strength is achieved, after 24 hours 90% of the optimum bond strength is achieved, and finally 100% after 72 hours
- Avoid heavy stress on the bonded area immediately after application
- Recommended temperature range for application: +20°C to +36°C
- The temperature should not be below +10°C during application
- Certain surfaces, such as porous materials like plaster and concrete, but also absorbent surfaces like untreated wood and fabric, must be pre-treated or sealed before application
- Metals with oxidized surfaces such as aluminum, copper and brass must be pre-treated or sanded before application
- Materials with low surface energy such as polypropylene, which contain aggressive plasticizers, may also need to be pre-treated
