Abstract
Surface treated oriented fluorocarbon films can be laminated to substrates using an adhesive composition of a selected copolymer of vinylidene fluoride and hexafluoropropylene and a selected diisocyanate curing agent in an organic solvent.
Claims1
Process in which an oriented, melt-fabricable fluorocarbon copolymer film is laminated to another such film or to a substrate by first treating the surface of each film to be laminated to corona discharge in an atmosphere of acetone, then treating the surface of each such film with an adhesive mixture of
- A. 5-40% by weight of a copolymer of about 30 to 70% by weight of vinylidene fluoride units and complementally about 70 to 30% by weight of hexafluoropropene units, and
- B. 0.5-3% by weight of an isocyanate product made from 1 mole trimethylolpropane and 3 moles toluene diisocyanate in
- C. an organic solvent for both A and B;
- and then pressing the coated film to another such coated film or to a substrate and heating for at least for 1.5 minutes at from 150.degree. to 175.degree. C. at a pressure of from 8 to 12 psi.
