Kapton Cable |
 |
|
Kapton, a kind of polyimide material, has very similar chemical properties like Teflon. Unlike Teflon, Kapton can be processed to very thin foils of very high tensile strength.
It has almost no fluidity, but a high elasticity.
Kapton can practically not be glued to other materials. Like glass fibre-insulated cables Kapton-insulated cables are mainly used for high temperatures in a dry environment. |
|
 |
| They have excellent electrical and mechanical properties. Cables should be laid firmly as a standard and flexibly as an exception. Tensile stress cannot be tolerated. They are not suited for permanent bending and kinks must be avoided during installation |
