3MTM Bonding Film 583 <br /> Directions For Use— Heat Activation (continued) <br /> One approach to establishing the correct/optimum bonding conditions for a user's application is to evaluate a series of <br /> bonding temperatures,for example 200,225,250,275 and 300°F(93, 107, 121, 135 and 1=19°C).Time and pressure will be <br /> dictated by the thickness of the substrate and the type of substrate being bonded.Thicker substrates and surfaces that may <br /> be more difficult to bond will require longer times,higher pressures and higher temperatures. If voids are experienced in <br /> the bondline,they can be minimized by increasing pressure. <br /> Once the bond is made,the bondline should be allowed to cool somewhat before stress is applied to the bond.Generally, <br /> cooling the bondline below 150°F(66°C)is adequate to allow the bonded parts to be unfixtured/unclamped and handled. <br /> For reference,the following table shows typical bond strengths for bonds made at various temperatures.Such data can be <br /> used to evaluate optimum bondline temperatures.It is important to note that this table is valid only for the specific <br /> substrates shown.Varying temperature,pressure,or substrates can affect bond strengths. User should develop a similar <br /> table with substrates specific to user's application. <br /> Note:Temperatures shown are bondline temperatures and not heat block or roll settings! <br /> 900 Peel Strengths of Bonds <br /> (2 and i sec.Dwell at :oBonding <br /> Bondline FR-4/Aluminum CRS/Aluminum <br /> Temperature 2 sec. 20 sec. 2 sec. 20 sec. <br /> 75°F(24°C) 9 piw 9 piw 5 piw 6 piw <br /> 95°F(35°C) 9 piw 9 piw 6 piw 6 piw <br /> 115°F(46°C) 9 piw 9 piw 6 piw 6 piw <br /> 135°F(57°C) 10 piw 10 piw 6 piw 7 piw <br /> 155°F(68°C) 11 piw 11 piw 7 piw 9 piw <br /> 175°F(79°C) 12 piw 13 piw 8 piw 10 piw <br /> 195°F(90°C) 13 piw 14 piw 9 piw 12 piw <br /> 215°F(101°C) 14 piw 14 piw 11 piw 14 piw <br /> 235°F(113°C) 14 piw 13 piw 12 piw 13 piw <br /> 255°F(124°C) 12 piw 12 piw 13 piw 13 piw <br /> 275°F(135°C) 12 piw 12 piw 12 piw 12 piw <br /> 295°F(146°C) 12 piw 11 piw 12 piw 12 piw <br /> 315°F(157°C) 11 piw 11 piw 11 piw 12 piw <br /> 335°F(168°C) 11 piw 11 piw 10 piw 11 piw <br /> 355°F(179°C) 11 piw 10 piw 6 piw 9 piw <br /> Peel values given in piw(pounds per inch width).ASTM D1876. <br /> Peel bonds were 1/2"wide using 4 mil etched aluminum bonded to either FR-4 printed circuit board substrate(alcohol wiped)or cold rolled steel <br /> (MEK wiped)'Bonds made on Sencorp device using 20 lbs.pressure. <br /> *Note: When using solvents,extinguish all ignition sources and follow the manufacturer's precautions and directions for use. <br /> (3) <br />
