The theatre stage spike tape use for marking the microphone. Different actors easily and quickly identify which microphone they should use in the dark light environment.

Why Choose FSK and Aluminum Foil Glass Cloth as the Radiant Barriers?

 

Radiant barriers consist of a highly reflective material, usually aluminum foil, which is applied to one or both sides of a number of substrate materials such as kraft paper, plastic films, scrim, fiberglass. These products are reinforced to increase durability and ease of handling.

FSK is a laminated material by Aluminum foil, Scrim, Kraft.

Aluminum foil glass cloth also a laminated materials by Aluminum foil, fiberglass cloth.

Radiant barriers can be combined with many types of insulation materials in reflective insulation systems. In these combinations, radiant barriers can act as the thermal insulation's facing material.

They are both be used as building Radiant barriers. Radiant barriers are installed in homes -- usually in attics -- primarily to reduce summer heat gain and reduce cooling costs. The barriers consist of a highly reflective material that reflects radiant heat rather than absorbing it. They don't, however, reduce heat conduction like thermal insulation materials.

 

How They Work?

Heat travels from a warm area to a cool area by a combination of conduction, convection, and radiation. Heat flows by conduction from a hotter location within a material or assembly to a colder location, like the way a spoon placed in a hot cup of coffee conducts heat through its handle to your hand. Heat transfer by convection occurs when a liquid or gas -- air, for example -- is heated, becomes less dense, and rises. As the liquid or gas cools, it becomes denser and falls. Radiant heat travels in a straight line away from any surface and heats anything solid that absorbs its energy.

Most common insulation materials work by slowing conductive heat flow and -- to a lesser extent -- convective heat flow. FSK and Aluminum foil glass cloth systems work by reducing radiant heat gain. To be effective, the Aluminum foil reflective surface must face an air space. Dust accumulation on the reflective surface will reduce its reflective capability. The FSK and Aluminum foil glass cloth should be installed in a manner to minimize dust accumulation on the reflective surface.

When the sun heats a roof, it's primarily the sun's radiant energy that makes the roof hot. Much of this heat travels by conduction through the roofing materials to the attic side of the roof. The hot roof material then radiates its gained heat energy onto the cooler attic surfaces, including the air ducts and the attic floor. The FSK and Aluminum foil glass cloth reduces the radiant heat transfer from the underside of the roof to the other surfaces in the attic.

The FSK and Aluminum foil glass cloth works best when it is perpendicular to the radiant energy striking it.

The FSK and Aluminum foil glass cloth are more effective in hot climates than in cool climates, especially when cooling air ducts are located in the attic. Some studies show that radiant barriers can reduce cooling costs 5% to 10% when used in a warm, sunny climate. The reduced heat gain may even allow for a smaller air conditioning system. In cool climates, however, it's usually more cost-effective to install more thermal insulation than to add FSK or Aluminum foil glass cloth.

What is Butt Splicing Tape?

Butt splicing tape is a single side splicing tape that used in milling and printing operations to splicing of the rolls.

The butt splicing tape don’t need overlapped. It is a single-sided tape to connect the two pieces over the seam.

Butt Splicing Tapes are used for butt splicing on papers, films and foils. We have a wide array of single coated butt splicing tapes featuring a multiple of carriers including polyester, polypropylene, PVC, UPVC and Kraft paper.

What you need to know to select the right Air conditioner duct tape？

 

Central air conditioner ducts are often routed through unconditioned zones in the building. A metal duct conveying cool, conditioned air through a broiling attic in summer or warm air through a chilly crawl space in winter may lose a substantial amount of temperature. On average the air ducts leak around 20% to 30% of the air conditioned or heated air. These losses can be reduced by insulating metal ductwork with wrap-around insulation. In order to help improve efficiency, it’s important to seal all of the air ducts joints with Air conditioner tapes.

 

With dozens of options in HVAC tapes, determining which one is right for your job is critical. It’s important to consider factors like UL Listings, the type of surface the tape must adhere to, and whether the tape has the strength and longevity to hold throughout the system’s life span.

 

Aluminum Foil Backing

The first consideration in tape selection is backing. Most Air conditioner ductwork applications necessitate a tape with a pure foil or laminated foil backing, although there are some reinforcedAluminum foil tapes which are robust enough to be used in Air conditioner ductwork applications. Both are designed to provide full system closure – meaning the system is free of air leaks – and are durable and robust enough for the life of the system.

If the pure aluminum foil is strength large enough, increase the thickness of the aluminum foil, so that the cost is very expensive. We usually use reinforced aluminum foil to increase its tensile strength but not much production costs. Reinforced aluminum foil tape include FSK tape, Aluminum foil glass cloth tape, Foil scrim tape, PET laminated foil tape.

Above Air conditioner tapes allow for maximum surface contact with the adhesive by easily conforming to rough and uneven surfaces, which makes them an excellent option for sealing flexible duct and reflective insulation.

 

However, because of their robust construction and durability, Air conditioner tapes are the most common for Air conditioner ducts jobs.

 

Adhesive layer

The second consideration in tape selection is Adhesive layer.

Synthetic rubber resin adhesive is synthetic rubber adhesive systems. The synthetic rubber adhesive alone does not posse any adhesive properties, and must be combined with tackifier resins to create a PSA.  It also named Hot melt adhesive.

Rubber-resin Adhesive will be offer good tack and adhesion to a variety of surfaces, but will not perform well in colder temperatures.

 

Water-based acrylic adhesive and Solvent-based acrylic adhesive

Acrylic Adhesive is industrially manufactured, and thus can be manipulated based on the selection of the monomers used in the formulation.

Acrylic adhesive will be offer good tack and adhesion to width range of temperature （from -30 degrees to 150 degrees ）.

Water-based acrylic adhesive will be good aging stability, high resistance to UV, ozone and humidity, best useful in long-term, outdoor applications.

Can Aluminum Duct Tape withstand high temp?

 

Aluminum duct tape is Pressure sensitive adhesive tape. When applied the tape, we usually wrapping or sticking the tape on the duct substrate.

Application Temperature is exactly the temperature at the point that the tape is applied. Application temperature can impact how quickly an Aluminum duct tape bonds with the surface to which it is applied and potentially how strong that bond is, depending on the tape used.

The Acrylic adhesive coated Aluminum foil duct tape, Application Temperature from -10℃ to +40℃.

 

Service temperature is the temperature to which foil tape will need to withstand throughout the life cycle of the system after application. The risk for tape failure increases when tapes that are not built to regularly withstand extreme temperatures are used in HVAC duct systems. If your system will be exposed to temperatures under -30℃ or above 150℃, you should consider a tape that is labeled as having a service temperature with a greater range in order to ensure strong performance.
