Cover tape
A cover tape having at least a base material layer, and an adhesive layer that is heat sealed by a resin carrier tape, the cover tape wherein the base material layer has an antistatic layer on a surface thereof that is on the reverse side to the adhesive layer; the antistatic layer contains at least an inorganic antistatic agent and a wax having a particle diameter of 0.2-3.0 μm; the inorganic antistatic agent is 40%-80% by mass and the wax content is 10%-50% by mass, relative to the total components forming the antistatic layer; and the surface resistivity of the base material layer side is no more than 10 13 Ω/□ in a 23° C.×30% RH atmosphere.
1. A cover tape comprising at least a substrate layer and an adhesive layer to be heat-sealed to a resin carrier tape; further comprising an antistatic layer on a surface of the substrate layer opposite to the adhesive layer; wherein the antistatic layer comprises at least an inorganic antistatic agent and a wax with an average particle size of 0.2 to 3.0 μm; the inorganic antistatic agent is in an amount of 40 to 80 mass %, and the wax is in an amount of 10 to 50 mass % with respect to all components constituting the antistatic layer; and a surface resistivity on a substrate layer side is 10 13 Ω/□ or less in an atmosphere of 23° C.×30% RH.
2. The cover tape of claim 1 , wherein the inorganic antistatic agent is one or both of magnesium silicate and a smectite.
3. The cover tape of claim 1 , wherein the wax is one or a combination of vegetable-based carnauba wax, rice wax and candelilla wax, petroleum-based paraffin wax and microcrystalline wax, and olefin waxes, ester waxes, ketone waxes and amide waxes which are synthetic waxes.
4. The cover tape of claim 1 , wherein the antistatic layer comprises, as a binder component, a thermoplastic resin chosen from the group consisting of a polyurethane resin, an acrylic resin, a polyvinyl chloride resin, an ethylene-vinyl acetate resins, a polyester resin, a butadiene resin, a styrene resin, an acryl-modified polyester resin and combinations thereof.
5. The cover tape of claim 1 , wherein the adhesive layer comprises one or a combination of a polyurethane resin, an acrylic resin, a polyvinyl chloride resin, an ethylene-vinyl acetate resin, a polyester resin, a butadiene resin, a styrene resin including hydrogenated forms, and a polyolefin resin which is capable of being heat sealed to the resin carrier tape.
6. The cover tape of claim 1 , wherein the substrate layer is a single layer or a laminate of plural layers of a resin film consisting of a polyester, a polyolefin or a nylon.
