Accessories

1. Overview

This product category encompasses pressure-sensitive tapes, adhesive materials, and complementary accessories used for bonding, sealing, protection, and structural support across industries. These materials enable critical functions in electronics assembly, automotive manufacturing, medical device production, and construction. Their evolution has driven advancements in miniaturization, lightweight design, and automated manufacturing processes.

2. Major Types & Functional Classification

Type	Functional Characteristics	Application Examples
Pressure-Sensitive Tapes	Immediate adhesion with light pressure, removable/permament options	Package sealing, HVAC ductwork
Structural Adhesives	High load-bearing capacity, chemical resistance	Aerospace panel bonding, automotive glass
Conductive Materials	Electrical/thermal conductivity, EMI shielding	Flexible circuit assembly, battery packs
Protective Accessories	Die-cut spacers, masking tapes, anti-static films	Paint protection, cleanroom surfaces

3. Construction & Technical Composition

Typical configurations include:

Tapes: Carrier materials (PET/foam/backing) + adhesive layer (acrylic/rubber) + primer
Adhesives: Base polymer (epoxy/polyurethane) + crosslinkers + fillers
Accessories: Engineered films (PE/PVC) with surface treatments (anti-fog, UV-blocking)
