The purpose of the present invention is to improve surface scratch problems occurring in the manufacturing process and handling of an adherend on which stamping foil is applied, prevent a problem in which a transfer layer of stamping foil is separated at a portion that is bent when the adherend is folded, secure binding force in printing with various inks, and fundamentally prevent powder generated during cutting according to a product standard in a stamping foil manufacturing process. To this end, the stamping foil of the present invention comprises: (a) a base film which is removed after stamping transfer; (b-1) a wear-resistant release layer formed on the base film and containing a polyurethane-based release agent, an acrylic resin, and an ethene-based polymer additive, or (b-2) (i) a polyurethane-based release layer formed on the base film and (ii) a wear-resistant layer formed on the polyurethane-based release layer and containing an acrylic matrix resin and an ethene-based polymer additive; (c) a moisture penetration-preventing and metal-deposited heat-resistant cured coating layer; (d) a metal deposition layer formed on the moisture penetration-preventing cured coating layer; and (e) optionally, a thick film protective layer formed on the metal deposition layer, for preventing the corrosion of the metal deposition layer.

Materials and methods for mitigating passive intermodulation. A membrane for reducing passive intermodulation includes a first polymeric layer, a second polymeric layer, and a continuous metal layer encapsulated between the first and second polymeric layers. A self-adhesive radio frequency barrier tape includes a waterproof polymeric top layer, a metal-containing layer adhered by an adhesive layer to the polymeric top layer, a pressure sensitive adhesive layer adhered to the metal-containing layer, and a release liner on a bottom surface of the pressure sensitive adhesive layer. A method of mitigating passive intermodulation includes passing a probe over an area of interest, the probe being sensitive to an intermodulation frequency of interest, and identifying a suspected source of passive intermodulation when the amplitude of the probe output exceeds a threshold at the frequency of interest. The method further includes covering the suspected passive intermodulation source with a radio frequency barrier material.
