Definitions

  • Flexible polymeric films have proved to be of great value as insulating films in electrical equipment and machinery.
  • biaxially oriented poly ethylene terephalate films are useful in transformer insulation, motor generato insulation, wire and cable insulation and as insulating supports for flexible circuits.
  • high stiffness and strengths including resistance to cut-through are important.
  • these applications require property retention after exposure to elevated temperatures.
  • the manufacturing process requires resistance to soldering melt temperatures found in the wave soldering process.
  • Motors, generators, transformers, and wire and cable may also be used where long term (years) of exposure to high humidities (and temperatures) may be a problem. Good hydrolytic stability is necessary. Design of equipment is limited by the present property combination of current materials.

  • biaxial oriented, heat set films made from PENBB copolyester resin exhibit greater stiffness, strength and higher melting point than films made from polyethylene terephtalate.
  • this film has improved hydrolytic stability.
  • Such improvements are important to the use of film in electrical insulation applications where high temperatures or humidities may be experienced over long periods of time.
  • Such uses might include transformer insulation, motor and generator insulation, flexible circuit substrate, and the ' .ke.

In particular, those films with improved stiffness (tensile modulu and tensile strength in both MD and TD as well as thermostability, UV stabilit hydrophobicity, dimensional stability and impermeability toward gases i comparison to PET film are not disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 3,008,934.
  • the copolyester is obtained by polycondensation of the correspondin diacid or lower dialkyl diester and the corresponding diol.
