3M™ Anisotropic Conductive Film 7371
Product Description
3M™ Anisotropic Conductive Film (ACF) 7371 is a heatbondable, electrically conductive adhesive film. The
unbonded film is slightly tacky at room temperature and
consists of a thermoset-elastomer and thermoplastic
adhesive matrix randomly loaded with conductive
particles. These particles allow interconnection of circuit
lines through the adhesive thickness, but are spaced far
enough apart for the product to be electrically insulating
in the plane of the adhesive. Application of heat and
pressure causes the adhesive to flow and to bring the
circuit pads into contact by trapping the conductive
particles. The adhesive rapidly cross-links at modest
bonding temperature and pressure. 3M ACF 7371 may
be used to bond a flexible printed circuit to another
flexible printed circuit or to a plastic touch screen or
plastic flat panel display device.

A source of heat and pressure, such as a thermo-compression
(hot bar) bonder is required for use of 3M™ Anisotropic
Conductive Film 7371. Several commercially available

A pre-tacking temperature of 90°C under a pressure of
about 10 kg/cm2 should be used (see Table below). For
automated ACF application: Set the ACF pretacking
equipment to deliver the conditions provided in the
Tacking and Bonding Conditions Table below. Slight
adjustment to these conditions may be necessary for each
application or for different types of circuitry. For manual
ACF application: Cut the adhesive to the size of the flex
circuit. Place the adhesive on the flex and set flex on hot
plate at setpoint up to 90°C. Use roller to press adhesive
onto the flex. After allowing flex and adhesive to cool,
remove liner.

Final bonding must be done under heat and pressure,
with a typical desirable bond line temperature that
reaches at least 140°C after 10 seconds at a pressure
of at least 10kg/cm2 (see Table above). This has been
(14)
The required minimum bonding temperature is usually reached at the
endpoint of bonding time. The optimum bonding temperature and time may
be different depending on customer application and design. Also, it may
be desirable to hold pressure while cooling to below 100ºC for maximum
performance.
(15)
Bonding temperature up to 190°C has been shown to be acceptable for
3M™ Anisotropic Conductive Film 7371.

shown in Figure 1. Electrical contact between the circuits
is typically achieved shortly after the thermode is pressed
against the parts. Additional time at temperature is
necessary to cross-link the thermoset-elastomer material
to generate peel strength and the ultimate reliability.
Bond times may vary depending upon the substrates to
be bonded. (Optionally, for maximum mechanical and
electrical performance, the pressure may be maintained
while cooling to below 100ºC. This increases the total
bond time. The time required to drop adhesive bond-line
temperature below 100ºC is highly dependent on the
bonding equipment used.)
Temperature measured in the adhesive. Thermode set points will be higher
and will depend upon the substrate materials and bonding equipment. A
typical set-up for tacking is a setpoint temperature of 125ºC. Typical set-up
for a flex circuit to polyester touch screen bond is a thermode temperature of
250ºC and bonding time of at least 10 seconds (see next note).

Storage
The 3M™ Anisotropic Conductive Film 7371 should be kept frozen in the original airtight shipping bag and stored at
temperatures ≤ 2°C. The product should be allowed to warm to room temperature for approximately 30 minutes prior
to use to prevent moisture condensation on the film. Whenever possible, 3M ACF 7371 should be kept away from high
humidity environments as absorbed water can lead to moisture volatilization producing bubbles during heat bonding or
gradual degradation of the product. The 3M ACF 7371 can be held at room temperature for product utilization provided
the cumulative room temperature shelf life of 4 weeks is not exceeded.
