Kapton®
Kapton® type HN is a tough, aromatic polyimide film,
exhibiting an excellent balance of physical, chemical, and
electrical properties over a wide temperature range, particularly
at unusually high temperatures. Chemically, its polyimide
polymer makeup is the result of polycondensation reaction
between pyromellitic dianhydride and 4,4' diamino-diphenyl
ether.
Kapton® does not melt or burn as it has the highest UL-94
flammability rating: V-0. The outstanding properties of Kapton®
permit it to be used at both high and low temperature extremes
where other organic polymeric materials would not be functional.
Kapton® polyimide film can be used in a variety of electrical
and electronic insulation applications: wire and cable tapes,
formed coil insulation, substrates for flexible printed circuits,
motor slot liners, magnet wire insulation, magnetic and pressure
sensitive tapes, and tubing. Many of these applications are
based on the excellent balance of electrical, thermal, mechanical,
physical, and chemical properties of Kapton® over a wide
range of temperatures. It is this combination of useful properties
at temperature extremes that makes Kapton® a unique industrial
material.
