Polyimide – Available from .0003″ to .010″ thick, this film has exceptional heat resistance, mechanical strength and dielectric properties.
Aramid fiber (Nomex®) – Available from .003″ to .030″ thick, Aramid paper can be creased and formed, and it is UL listed.
Vulcanized Fiber (Fishpaper) – Chemically hardened cotton paper with excellent dielectric strength and high friction and oil resistance. Can be formed.
Kraft paper – Kraft paper is a cellulose fiber-based product that is often purified for electrical application.
Formex™ flame-retardant polypropylene – Moisture resistant, with high dielectric strength. Excellent scoring/folding performance and UL 94V-0 rating.
Polypropylene – Tough and rigid, with outstanding flex life. Excellent abrasion resistance and good chemical resistance.
Polyester – Very strong with a good balance of physical and chemical properties. Outstanding dielectric strength for electrical insulation. Also known as Mylar™ and Mellinex™.
PTFE – PTFE has excellent chemical resistance and high dielectric strength; it is also non-flammable and inert to weather and sunlight. Very low friction coefficient.
Valox™ – Valox is a polyester-based (PET or PBT) thermoplastic that has good heat and chemical resistance, as well as outstanding electrical properties with very good surface appearance.
