PTFE Tape As Release Layer in FRP Hot Press Curing

Jiangsu Aokai New Materials, a source manufacturer of PTFE high-temperature adhesive tape, gives you a professional introduction. In the hot press curing process of Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic (FRP), PTFE high-temperature adhesive tape serves as an excellent release layer. Thanks to its outstanding non-stick demolding performance and extremely high reusable service life with proper maintenance, it has become a mainstream solution in the industry.

It should be noted that the reusable times of the tape are closely related to product type, process parameters and daily maintenance.

Its core demolding mechanism lies in the extremely low surface energy of the PTFE coating (only about 18 mN/m), which makes it difficult for molten resin to wet the contact surface. The actual reusable times in practical application mainly depend on the following factors:

Based on the above factors, the estimated service life under different working conditions is as follows:

· Severe Working Conditions (Temperature＞200°C, high pressure, frequent use): 10 ~ 200 times

· Conventional Working Conditions (Moderate temperature, stable pressure, careful maintenance): 200 ~ 500 times

· Ideal/Mild Working Conditions (Low pressure, temperature＜150°C, intermittent use): More than 500 times

To achieve a higher reuse rate of PTFE high-temperature adhesive tape, let the tape stand for 24 hours after pasting, and record its actual service times. It is recommended to replace the tape when it reaches 80% of its expected service life.
