Abstract

Heat-activable adhesive tape for producing and further processing flexible conductor tracks, with an adhesive composed at least of a) an epoxide-modified vinylaromatic block copolymer, b) an epoxy resin and c) a hardener which performs crosslinking with the epoxide groups at high temperatures, the ratio of a to b being between 40:60 and 80:20.

Claims (13)

1. A heat activatable adhesive tape for producing and further processing flexible conductor tracks, the adhesive comprising:

a) an epoxide-modified vinylaromatic block copolymer;

b) an epoxy resin; and

c) a hardener which performs crosslinking with the epoxide groups of the epoxide-modified vinylaromatic block copolymer at high temperatures,

wherein a ratio by weight of a to b being between 40:60 and 80:20, and the vinylaromatic block copolymer is a styrene block copolymer.

2. The heat-activable adhesive tape according to claim 1 wherein the adhesive comprises more than one epoxy resin and/or tackifying resins.

3. The heat-activable adhesive tape according to claim 1 , wherein the adhesive comprises accelerators, dyes, carbon black and/or metal powders.

4. The heat-activatable adhesive tape according to claim 1 , wherein the adhesive crosslinks at temperatures above 150°C.

5. The heat-activatable adhesive tape according to claim 1 , wherein the adhesive tape comprises further elastomers.

6. The method for bonding plastic parts which comprises bonding said plastic parts with the heat activatable adhesive tape of claim 1 .

7. The method for bonding electronic components and/or flexible printed circuits which comprises bonding said electronic components and/or flexible printed circuits with the heat activatable adhesive tape of claim 1 .

8. The method for bonding an article to polyimide which comprises bonding said article to polyimide with the heat activatable adhesive tape of claim 1 .

9. The heat activatable adhesive tape of claim 5 , wherein said further elastomers are selected from the group consisting of pure hydrocarbon elastomers, elastomers which are essentially saturated chemically and chemically functionalized hydrocarbons.
