Like general purpose Kapton® HN, DuPont™ Kapton® FPC polyimide film shares the same excellent balance of physical, chemical, and electrical properties over a wide temperature range. The difference between HN and FPC is that FPC polyimide film is treated on both sides to accept adhesives like acrylic or silicone enabling adhesive backed Kapton® to bond better in wrapping applications like coil or cable wrapping. Kapton® FPC is widely used in the manufacturing of flex circuits due to its superior dimensional stability and adhesion properties.
