3M 9703
Electrically Conductive Tape

General Information

A 2.0 mil. conductive tape featuring filled acryilc adhesive on a silicone-treated liner used for interconnection of flexible circuits with other flexible circuit applications. This pressure-sensitive adhesive is filled with conductive particles which allow interconnection between substrates through the adhesive thickness ("Z-axis") but spaced far enough apart for the product to be electrically insulating in the plane of the adhesive. The tack properties and lack of any thermal curing make this tape easy to use in assembly operations. Stable electrical performance in any flexible circuit interconnection application may require mechanical reinforcement (clamping). 9703 tape electrically connects and mechanically bonds rigid printed circuit boards (PCB), LCD screens and EMI/ RFI shields and gaskets to metal frames and enclosures. Tape can be applied as die-cut parts or in roll form, and has low contact resistance and tape construction resulting in good EMI performance. 9703 tape also offers good adhesion to common EMI/ RFI substrates, such as aluminum, stainless steel and smooth gasket materials and PCB substrates, such as copper, gold, FR-4 epoxy, Kapton™ polyimide and polyester films. See 3M data sheet for Product Selection Guide.

The physical properties listed are typical values and are not to be considered as specifications. Our suggestions for use are based on tests we believe to be reliable. However, the purchaser must carry out their own tests to determine the suitability of the product for their internal use. Information is given in good faith, but without warranty.

It is essential, as with all pressure-sensitive tapes, that the surface to which the tape is applied be clean, dry and free of grease and oil.

Shelf life from date of manufacture is based on the product being stored at 70°F(21°C) / 50% relative humidity out of direct sunlight.

Specification compliance is dynamic and should only be used as a general guide. Always confirm that the tape you are interested in currently complies with all specification requirements. Please verify that the product number that you select is available in the proper size and color to meet your specification.
