    To select the correct 3M component ormaterial solution you first need todetermine the appropriate adhesive.Selecting the proper adhesive for anyapplication must include considerationof the substrate surface characteristicsand the application performance

    requirements.

    1. To start building your product, firstdetermine which adhesive best meetsyour need. The Adhesive FamilyDescriptions and the AdhesiveSelection Charts at the beginning ofthe Label Materials and theAdhesive Bonding Tapes sectionshighlight the performance featuresand characteristics of 3M adhesives.

    More detailed information about3M adhesives temperature,environmental and other performancecharacteristics are included in thecharts on pages 11 and 33.

    2. If you are considering a labelmaterial, you can choose theappropriate facestock suitable foryour application by looking at the

    Facestock Properties chart onpage 13. This chart showsenvironmental performance and

    processing properties of our variousfacestock materials.

    For instances when an application

    requires the use of a specific liner,weve included convenient cross-reference charts on pages 14 and 35.

    For information on a specific product,consult the Products Index.

    There are differences in adhesives.

    Selecting the proper adhesives for

    a nameplate, label or membrane switch

    application requires consideration of

    environmental, surface, appearance and

    other performance requirements. Our

    purpose here is to cover some ofthe principles of adhesion.

    Surface contact is fundamental to

    adhesive performance. To maximize

    adhesive contact on a surface:

    It must be dry and free of

    contaminates.

    Firm pressure must be applied to

    increase the flow and contact of

    the adhesive with the substrate.

    Time and temperature will

    increase the surface contact and

    adhesion values.

    Oil contaminated materials may

    be addressed with the 300LSE

    or 350 adhesive families.

    Adhesion is the molecular force

    of attraction between unlike materials.

    The strength of attraction is determined

    by the surface energy of the material.

    The higher the surface energy, the

    greater the molecular attraction. The

    lower the surface energy, the weaker

    the attractive forces.

    Greater molecular attraction results in

    increased contact between an adhesive

    and substrate. In other words, a high

    surface energy material, the adhesivecan flow (or wet-out) to assure a

    stronger bond.

    Consider an automobile that has not

    been waxed for a long time. When water

    contacts the surface it spreads in large

    puddles. The unwaxed car surface

    exhibits high surface energy the

    molecular attraction allows the water

    to flow.

    In comparison, water beads up into

    small spheres on freshly waxed car.It is an example of low surface

    energy the liquid (or adhesive)

    does not flow out.

    Surface energy is measured by dynes

    per centimeter. The dyne level is the

    actual reading of the critical surface

    tension.

    Modified acrylic and synthetic

    adhesives with better flow (or

    wet-out) characteristics have been

    developed to adhere to low surface ener-

    gy substrates. The Surface Energy Chart

    below compares the relative

    surface energy of commonly used

    substrates.

    3Ms firm acrylic adhesives such

    as #200, #200MP and #600 families

    will not readily adhere to substratescategorized as having low surface ener-

    gy. However, 3Ms #300, #320, #350,

    and #300LSE modified acrylics or #700

    synthetic rubber adhesives

    have been designed to adhere to low

    surface energy plastics, and should be

    considered for those applications.
