The composite conductive copper foil is generally composed of multiple layers of materials, including a transparent PET layer and an insulating green high-temperature adhesive tape. The transparent PET layer is usually used on the back of the composite conductive copper foil, and mainly functions to cover the connector position to prevent interference from external environmental factors such as dust and moisture, while allowing the inspection of whether the connector is normally plugged. The insulating green high-temperature adhesive tape is used for protection in the component area to prevent the conductive layer of the composite conductive copper foil from directly contacting the components, thereby avoiding display function abnormalities caused by short circuits. In the application of the composite conductive copper foil, accurate positioning and bonding of the transparent PET layer and the insulating green high-temperature adhesive tape are very crucial. Through these technical measures, the conduction and insulation performance of the copper foil can achieve the expected effect, ensuring the normal operation of the liquid crystal display module.
