Electrically Conductive Adhesives and Films

Electrically Conductive Adhesives and Films

AR’s electrically conductive adhesive films have a proven track record of providing stable performance in electronic applications for nearly 25 years. 

These conductive adhesive layers can be used for transmitting current through layers of a device, forming electrical interconnects, and bonding electrical components.

Benefits:

• Electrically conductive pressure sensitive adhesives (PSA) and heat activated adhesives both available
• Combines excellent bond strength with stable conductivity, even under mechanical & environmental stress
• Lower cost and equivalent performance to silver (Ag) filled epoxies
• Offers excellent & tailorable X, Y & Z conductivity
• Enables electrical conductivity between or across adhesive bonds
• Options with anisotropic (z only) and isotropic electrical conductivity
• Provides reliable bonds with strong cold drop performance and shock resistance
• Enables finer features in device design by providing effective bonding over small surface areas

Applications:

• Foil-backed conductive PSAs and heat activated tapes for photovoltaic charge collection tapes and busbars, EMI/RFI shielding, and electrical grounding
• Electrical interconnection and assembly
• Static dissipation and control
• Medical electronics

We also offer skin-friendly conductive adhesives and tapes for electrical interconnects, grounding and shielding in medical and pharmaceutical applications including:

•    Medical electronics
•    Medical devices
•    Wearable sensors
•    Transdermal/combination drug delivery devices
