Polyvinyl Acetal Film-Insulated Round Aluminum Magnet Wire is a type of magnet wire that consists of an aluminum core coated with a layer of polyvinyl acetal film as the insulation material.
Insulating Material:
The coating is based on a blend of polyvinyl acetal and phenolic resins .
NOTE—Polyvinyl acetal in this case refers to the condensation product of polyvinyl alcohol and an aldehyde and includes polyvinyl formal (Formvar).
