Foil tapes are constructed with a thin metal-foil backing that provides a malleable and conductive product for vapor sealing, shielding, and ducting-leak repairs. Typically, metal foil tapes are made of aluminum or copper. Aluminum foil tapes are laminated to paper or plastic films for improved strength. Like other foil tapes, they provide a light and relatively inexpensive form of protection for food, medicine, and other products that can be damaged by the environment. Electrodeposited copper foil is used to produce multilayer printed circuit boards (PCBs). Several copper foil thicknesses are available. As a rule, the PCB application determines the proper thickness to select. Thicker copper foil carries more current and has less impedance than thinner foil.   

In addition to backing or carrier material, foil tapes are specified according to adhesive or coating type and release or liner material. Some foil tapes use acrylic, cellulose, epoxy, water-activated, or polyurethane adhesives. Others use rubber, silicone, thermoset or thermoplastic adhesives. Pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSA) or contact adhesives are aggressively and permanently tacky at room temperature in dry (solvent free) form. Heat-activated adhesives become tacky or sticky when heat is applied. Choices for liner material include paper, film, board, fluropolymer, glassine, and silicone. Foil tapes that use clay, wax, of differentially coated liners are also available.
