Custom Adhesives
Based on our extensive history, Ameri-Cal specializes in a full range of processing techniques that can accommodate numerous customization capabilities for your precise applications:
Our adhesive chemistry includes high-performance acrylic and rubber-based polymers that can be either emulsion or solvent-based with coat weights ranging from 0.8 to 6.0 dry mils.
Learn more about our unique custom adhesives knowledge, including:
- Acrylic Adhesives: hold up well with UV light, high temperatures and chemical exposure
- Rubber Adhesives: known for high tack and good shear properties
- Hybrid Adhesives: for applications demanding higher performance than “off-the-shelf” products
Release Liners
We understand it’s common that custom adhesives, such as bandages, are not always used immediately. Ameri-Cal can address your tunneling, tight release, adhesive lock-up and other issues that you’ve encountered.
Learn more about expertise with release liner systems that we customize for specific applications, including:
- Lay-flat liners for sheeting
- Light gauge liners for roll dispensing (SCK)
- Backside coated liners for static/slip-control (“traction-coated”)
- Clear PET film liners
- Double-sided liners (for self-wound)
Transfer Films
When you need liners without any carrier or backing, Ameri-Cal can develop the right solution for your business – everything from flexible circuitry to graphics. Some customers prefer unsupported transfer adhesives (UTA) or double-coated products (DCP) that we can provide with single or double liners.
Learn more about the depth of our experience with transfer films, including developing adhesives for non-picking liners, pattern coating and differential sided DCP.
