Mactac launches environmentally safe, solvent-free acrylic adhesive tapes

By Michelle Froese | February 8, 2021

MacBond HSA440 tapes are formulated to offer excellent performance on medium to high-surface energy materials. The tapes are offered in 54-inch and 60-inch rolls and have a two-year shelf life.

Ohio-based adhesives company, Mactac Industrial Tapes, is launching a new, solvent-free acrylic product line. MacBond HSA440 acrylic tapes are part of its newest 100-percent-solids performance line.

Developed with Mactac’s innovative adhesive technology, MacBond HSA440 are environmentally and economically friendly. They are available as a double-coated tape or transfer adhesive, in various coat weights.

The tapes feature either a moisture-stable PCK liner — known to resist welting and provide dimensional stability or a PET liner, which delivers an ultra-smooth adhesive appearance for laminating or electronic application. Dual liner versions are also available.

MacBond HSA440 tapes are highly versatile, meeting a wide range of requirements in applications, including:

  • Mounting and bonding
  • Appliance
  • Nameplates and overlays
  • Graphic mounting and display assembly
  • Membrane switches
  • Medical device assembly
  • Automotive

Additionally, the tapes:

  • Maintain adhesion after exposure to heat and humidity
  • Are solvent- and UV-resistant
  • Are non-whitening and low-odor
  • Are easy to handle and die-cut
  • Ensure minimal adhesive ooze

“Mactac is proud to bring another 100-percent solids solvent-free performance product to the market,” says Janet Page, senior marketing manager, Mactac Performance Adhesives. “Our customers asked for an adhesive with the perfect balance of adhesive and cohesive strength. To answer that request, MacBond HSA440 Acrylic Tapes feature an excellent balance of properties, resulting in a truly versatile group of tapes that can be used in countless applications.”

MacBond HSA440 Transfer adhesives are UL969 and CSA 22.2 No.15 recognized for indoor and outdoor applications.
