  • What are the Types of Jacket Insulation for Portable Cord?
    Portable cordage is available in different jacket insulation materials - Thermoset (rubber), Thermoplastic (plastic), Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE). Here's a little more information about them to help you decide which cordage is best for your application.
  • New Insulation Material Yields Smaller, Lighter, Greener Cables
    Alpha Wire's new EcoWire hook-up wire uses flexible Noryl insulation to provide an environmentally friendly alternative to PVC. Noryl is a modified polyphenylene ether (mPPE) thermoplastic that is inherently lighter, tougher, and more durable than PVC.
  • Effect of color pigments on the hardness of thermoplastics at different temperatures
    the electronic components inside meet demanding specifications, the housings of switches and fuses should also resist varied environmental factors such as. moisture, UV radiation and heat/cold. To ensure long service life and proper insulation of the electronics encased therein, it is necessary to monitor
  • Compounding Cable Covering in a Rotary Mixer
    General Cable produces insulation and jacket materials for wiring products by blending temperature-sensitive thermoplastic resin pellets with solid and liquid additives in a rotary batch mixer from Munson Machinery.
  • How to Choose Between Automotive Cross-Link and GPT Wire
    electrical usage in vehicles. GPT stands for "General Purpose Thermoplastic " in reference to the jacket around the wire. The PVC insulation jacket is heated and extruded through a die and onto a bare copper wire, serving as insulation that can accept up to about 60 volts and withstand temperatures
  • Overmolding Circular Connectors in Cable Assemblies
    as insulation has been extruded onto copper conductors, first in rubber with transfer molding (still used in many industrial applications), and then with injection molding of thermoplastic materials such as PVC beginning in the 1950s. Overmolding is an effective means of providing strain relief
  • Five Factors to Consider when Molding PEEK
    , consider the use of barrel blankets as they provide heat insulation, with the benefit of energy cost savings. A general purpose screw is effective. Copper and copper alloys should be avoided (in contact with melt). All metallic components should be smooth and highly polished to prevent hang ups. #2
