Scrim Reinforced Tapes

A scrim reinforced tape is just one step beyond a transfer tape. The pure adhesive matrix is laid into a grid of fibre which could be diamond or rectangular in its pattern. This pattern does not interfere with the adhesive's bond strength or flow characteristics but can offer a degree of stability to support the substrates during and after conversion into component parts. A typical example of the use of scrim tapes would be in polyester foam lamination.
